I have an older flip up LG Net 10 phone (from 2014?) but lost the charger. The port on the phone measures 5/8" across (wider than most phones). Walmart has no charger that size. Where could I find one?

If you can find the actual model of your phone or post a pic of the port we could answer. But yes, Amazon or eBay would be a good bet.

It's possible that it might be cheaper to just get a new flip phone.

Ebay, take the battery off your phone and look for the model number, then search ebay for OEM charger for LG and that model.

I agree with Mr. Lee ..

Open the back cover, pull the battery out.
The model no. Should be on a sticker (LG with some number like LG470 or similar.)

The charger is likely very common, probably a micro-usb or mini-usb. If so these are very easy to find.
You may be able to find them at Walmart or Target etc.
