Sim Free Phones??

Does anyone know anywhere online that does good deals on 2nd hand handsets. Obviously the latest models are big bucks but there are bound to be plenty of good phones 12mths old available from people up-grading?

Anyone got any contacts etc..?
(excluding ebay)

    They do new sim-free and "clearence" phones which are usually about £20 cheaper, but might not have a manual.


    Also http://www.cex.co.uk/ sell second hand phones, but i think you can only buy from their shop and not online.

    Good luck.

    Why are you against eBay? Have you had your fingers burnt by unreputable sellers?

    This would be the cheapest way to get a handset no longer required due to upgrade.

    I would personally pick my handsets off eBay, on the proviso that the sellers were reputable. Cex.co.uk tend to be quite expensive I think in comparison to established phone shops... plus alot of their phones will be trade ins (ie, the handset may be barred a few months later) unlike with a reputable GSM shop which would get genuine sim free handsets.

    HTH.
