Does anyone use Blackberry phones anymore? I had someone say they couldn't send me a pic their horse they have for sale because their Blackberry doesn't take pictures but it can send pictures.

Back in the early 2000s that was true. I had one that could receive pictures and send pictures but it didn't have a camera. Their cameras are notorious for going out tho.
I would think by now that since we have 4G everywhere now that this person would be forced to upgrade. But again, Blackberry is still around and their cameras are still notorious for either not working at all or only working every now and again.
Still, I wouldn't buy the horse until you have updated pictures.

Most likely it DID have a camera. But honestly the blackberry was one of the worse phones ever-- well at least for me. I had 5 of them during that contract.. so glad when the contract ran out. They just kept sending me replacements. But the camera went out on two of them! So they probably being legit about it!

That is true. My sister's first smart phone was a blackberry. She LOVED that phone. They stopped selling them for a little while, I believe, so she went to iphones. But when they came back out she went to buy one and realized they don't have a camera.
The salesperson told her they are designed more for "work" use. They have the highest ratings for data security, that kind of thing.
