  • Well I've just bought an iPhone 4 (16 gb) unlocked brand new (still sealed) for £310 on fleabay for a relative so I'm sure you should be able to find a new/nearly new 3GS for £200-£300 - obviously buy only from someone with 100% positive feedback :)
  • Ive looked at uk only ones on vod or unlocked and the prices are still at the business end of £300 , not much difference even though there are 2 other models above it now

    There is a three month old iPhone 3G on a facebook group now for £100. I'd offer to buy it for you, but my concern is that it'll be the result of an insurance claim and left unusable. If you are very keen, the seller is local and I could try and put you in contact with her.
  • Thank you for the offer mate but i will keep looking, ive noticed a few cheap cheap ones floating about , look a tad dodgey lol . i just grudge paying that i guess when you could buy the 4s for £170 more. i will try the AV forums see what pops up :) cheers guys
