I was looking at a listing for this phone on eBay. It's for a factory unlocked 9005 model. The listing says "NOT work with 4G LTE in US, Canada & Mexico". Is that correct? Why wouldn't it work in the U.S.?

I was considering buying it, but probably won't if the 4G doesn't work where I am.
 
I'm not sure where you are, but here in Australia we know about the different frequencies used for LTE in USA and the rest of the world. Apparently, the LTE frequency is subdivided into smaller bands. USA adopted certain bands. The rest of the world went with other bands. Others on this forum may provide more details, but it's certainly true.
