I find it amazing just how many people set up an Ebay account, then make their first listing a high-value item, then whinge when they are blocked or restricted.

If I were going to sell an item with a high value, Ebay would not be my first port of call.

Well tell me where else would you sell a phone? I've tried Gumtree, Craigslist, eBid, local paper, forums, the likes of Cex will buy it at £100 less than the likes of eBay.

You're missing the main 2, Amazon or Playtrade. Playtrade would mean signing up as a Protrader for 19.99 but if it is a 400 phone then that fee is covered. It also means you have the rest of the month to sell as many electronics and phones you like.

Playtrade is actually a decent little marketplace and very underestimated.
