What to do with 02 simcards and how to get more?

With reference to selling your sim cards, i find it best to sell in bulk on ebay, rather then individual sims, hence sell all of the 02 sims together, and same for the other networks! this is a lot less hassle than selling to lots of different people! You still make good money this way!

also it costs less in ebay listing and final value fees! the cost of sims can vary, but if selling on ebay, before you list the item, do a search for what you are selling, i.e 21 o2 sims, or 20 o2 sims and you will get a rough guide on how much to sell them for!

dont forget to get the postage cost right mind, or you can lose out on money if you under price it! royal mails website will show you postage costs!

  • Thanks alot. About a month ago I went to a festival and there was people selling 02, vodafone and orange sims cards(the free ones) for £2 each. Dont know how they made money though with the stole fees.
    Cash ISA rate 6.5% fixed for 2 years. Mortgage rate 0.75% = 5.75% profit on £75K = £4500 per year:j
    Mortgages make money. Definitely don't wanabee mortgage free!

    you can definately get more than that on ebay, and at least then the buyer pays the postage costs

    I've split this discussion from this thread HERE as there were two separate discussions going on in one thread! :D

    Hopefully, this will make the discussions easier to follow now. :)
