Selling sims at bootsale?

Hi,

I'm helping a friend do a bootsale at the weekend. I dont actually have anything i can sell myself other than a box full of o2 sim cards.

Does anyone know if i am allowed to sell them? Do they sell well? I usually get rid of them on ebay but postgae just costs too much to make it worthwhile selling or buying them now.

Hope someone can help me. Thanks

  • some more information is in the free sim card board in connection with cards being used in a negative way but connected to your name. IE you get it free from o2 in the post but then its linked to you. The new owner uses it in a netative way and who will the police come to. Perhaps you shoul read it.
