    Sorry, but why not buy from a shop?
    Even someone like Cash Convertors would be safer than a Gumtree ad.

    And yet again, that helps how?
    One important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.

    I'm doubtful that this seller knew it was a clone. What sort of seller of fake phones sells them out of his own property (if it was his property)? More likely to ask you to meet him around the back of the bus station surely?
    What reason for sale was given?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Any suggestions? I feel particularly bad because it was a gift from family for completing my first year of uni.
    I too would be embarrassed at receiving such a gift for managing a year at university without dropping out (or being thrown out).

    What a useful reply - I'm sure that'll help the OP.
