Best place to buy a used/reconditioned iphone?

angelfire

hi all,

my daughter is mithering for an iphone for Christmas but we can not afford a new one. So I'm looking around for either a used 3G or maybe a reconditioned one that she can put her o2 sim into. other than ebay, is there anywhere that anyone can recommend please?

Or if only ebay, what cover have I got if i buy a phone that is sunsequently reported stolen after the paypal protection runs out?

thanks in advance

Bioth sites have a clearance section but Im not sure about the particular model you are after

You can get cashback as well i.e.

http://www.topcashback.co.uk/e2save/
http://www.topcashback.co.uk/mobilespayg-and-accessories/

I tend to buy from the above and then sell them to CEX which obviously shows which is cheaper lol

you could try smartfonstore

http://www.smartfonestore.com/buy_product.aspx?searchtxt=Apple%20Iphone%204%2016GB

they sell refurbished iphones, they grade them from Grade A,B or C

Grade A is excellent condition, with no scratches or marks what so ever
I myself bought a Grade A, and it looks perfect
I have also bought another one tonight for our daughters Christmas present

As you only get a 60 day return for exchange warranty, is there any way to get at least a 1 year warranty for one of those used iPhones?
Either from Apple or a 3rd party warranty co?

I would deffo say smartfonestore is the best site out there for used mobiles. Just bought iPhone from them and they advised that the manufactuer's warranty i.e Apple will cover most things if i have a problem after 60 day SFS warranty.
