Hi there,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me? I'm looking to buy an 8gb iphone - one that is on offer at the moment for £169, I've tried O2 and the carphone wearhouse and they have run out, anyone got any ideas of other places I could try??:confused:

Thanks, Lorna
Thanks for the advice Martin! :money:

    all those stocks have gone, you might find one in the odd store but otherwise that was the last of the stock

    Yup - the iPhone has only ever been available through Apple, O2 and CPW. It was only discounted through O2 and CPW, and they have run out.

    Both carphone warehouse and o2 stores in Newark had stock at this time yesterday...don't know if this is of any help, but it is worth calling around.

    Managed to get one today! O2 store in West Lothian. They have sold out online but the chap informs me that most stores have limited stock and once this has run out they probably won't get any more in for their £100 off promotion before the 1st of June

    Doubt that they'll get anymore in any part of the UK- O2 want to push the new Iphone which is due very soon:). The cynic in me says that they may push forward the release of the new Iphone so if you are after a bargain get in now or after Christmas;).

    An unlocked iPhone.... You sure about that?. That would be a hacked one, with a void warranty, then wouldn't it?

    Does not take long to put the original bootloader etc back on.
