Is the ds lite still popular?

I have just been offered a ds lite for £20 in red..i know when i bought dd's is was £115 admitedly a while ago but have just checked them and they still seem a lot. IF i decide to sell it due to not needing it do you think it would sell or are the new ones the thing now?!
Thanks

    They are still being sold on Amazon.

    That sounds like a bargain to me - so long as it is working properly I'd certainly buy it because I think it would sell for more fairly easily.
  • Keep your money > due to not needing it. Why buy it ? Sounds hot to me...

    Thanks!

    Well it was to buy as a spare for dds one incase anything went wrong..i kind of rail roaded myself into it as said yes if it was deff ok then thought the same as you totalsolutions that it wasn't needed. It is deff not 'hot'! it is a friend who i trust but still wondering if i can bothered buying it to try and resell if we dont keep. She said it is fine but no pen..that they were available down the rd for £1 but tbh i figure why not go and buy the pen and sell yourslef for far more..hmm i never trust anyone! Saying that dh bought an ipod touch for just over £40 and i was wary but it's been fab and i love it so?!

    Lol my friends selling the ds on behalf of someone else and although i trust my friend i'm thinking its a bit cheap?..bit more to it i think but unsure at mo. As for the ipod well i kept saying to dh he's mad..when we got it dh said 'do you realise how much they are normally' to which there was a lot of swearing lol..hes a grown man though so no excuses on not knowing!

    Yea - still popular. Can't get the kids off the damn things!
  • Sounds like a great deal on the ds lite. Its probably worth taking a look at it before buying(to check if its got dead pixels/broken hinges) because even if you did buy it, but didn't want it, you could probably get around £30 at GAME for trading it in, and you could probably double your money if you ebay'd it.

    As for the iPod Touch, are you sure it was actually an iPod Touch, and not an iTouch, which are just knock offs, because £40 does seem excessively cheap for an iPod Touch, unless of course its a 1st Gen Model.

    Hi, we decided against it as seemed a waste really as we have one and tbh it ws for me to play with and deep down i know i wont and can always use dds so text friend..she replied..oh thats ok sold it at 2pm anyway??!! so thats that!

    As for the ipod yes it is a genuine one as friend really needed money so sold it unaware and then kicked himself! LOVE the ipod it's great!
