    Opened box? They are factory seconds.

    "Factory seconds and irregulars are not necessarily faulty or even of lessened quality, but rather a piece of merchandise with a minor problem (typically cosmetic and easily reparable) that prevent it from passing the quality checks in the inspection process, subsequently preventing it from being shipped to the parent store counterpart".

    I think for a phone stated as factory seconds is overpriced at £110.

    If you can not see that there are 5 of the ! symbol in the title of your post (as of 19.56 in case you edit), then I despair.
