Who's going to buy an older model for nearly double the cash, where you could probably get a iphone4 for about the same price, or 2nd hand iphone for half that??? Mmmmmm The price is wrong IMO But GLWS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 my iphone4 was 6 months old, and sold it for £300 the other day. Who's going to buy an older model for nearly double the cash, where you could probably get a iphone4 for about the same price, or 2nd hand iphone for half that??? Mmmmmm The price is wrong IMO But GLWS The item is 2nd hand however it is not used (its packed, no fingerprints, brand new) - so there is a difference to your used phone. Secondly and more importantly, a jailbroken iphone is a hack to unlock it to other networks (this has to be done everytime apple upgrade the IOS). this is not jailbroken device it is an OFFICIAL iphone that is NOT LOCKED to any particular network. you do not need to hack it in order to connect it to whatever network you want If people want jailbroken iphones then there is a price for that, if they don't then its a different price. Simples Hope that helps any potential buyer. I have researched the market and priced it to be very attractive to people who know what they are looking at.

Simples Anyone can get the iPhone officially unlocked for £10. You don't HAVE to jailbreak it, althought unlocking does take a few weeks. Personally think you'll struggle to sell at anything over £300 for the 3GS but good on you if you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo2810 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 thanks for your opinion. out of interest - can you elaborate on the highlighted bit above? Elaborate on what? Official unlock via O2 used to take 21 days or less (depended what their queue was like)... I believe now it costs nothing to do (if you're out of contract) and takes a few days.

I believe now it costs nothing to do (if you're out of contract) and takes a few days. Right, a 12-18mth or longer used out of contract phone, so not really the same thing, thanks anyway.

GazzaGSi Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Purely commenting on the unlocking side of things, not questioning the for sale thread at all. I got a iphone unlocked afew weeks ago. I had to put 10 or 15 pound, cant remember which, credit on the phones PAYG sim. Called o2 and they took the credit and (payment for unlocking) and it was done in a matter of minutes. Jailbreaking is different to unlocking the phone. IIRC jailbreaking gives you access to a mirrored app store that lets you download all apps cracked and FOC.
