    I sold mine via the yellow paper https://www.adtrader.co.uk to save myself the hassle last time.

    Current highest bidder (if I am looking at the right auction) has zero feedback, but has only ever bid on 2 things, and one was same phone as you were selling. Doesn't have the activity I would expect from one of the usual con merchants. Always a risk but every buyer has to start somewhere.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
    Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb
  • My first and second attempts at selling a K750i were hijacked by Nigerian scammers who bid ridiculous amounts and wanted it posted to Lagos. I was successful the third time by blocking everyone I could and adding the note 'NO NIGERIAN SCAMMERS'
