Envirofone

I wish to sell my iPhone 3G and came across Envirofone. They offered £180 for it, is that good or should I get more for it?

Re: Envirofone

Have a look on ebay to see what they're selling for, I'm not up to speed with iphones but they seem to be selling for £300+ if in good condition.

Re: Envirofone

They are a very reliable company, but their prices are often way below what you could fetch on eBay/classifieds.

Think you will have to take into account of the fees that would be deducted if you were to sell on it Ebay.

My iPhone is in excellent condition, apart from the usual very fine scratches on the back that's visable in the light. If I were to sell it on Ebay, I would expect to get no-more than £210.

But if I go with Envirofone route, you have a choice either, Cheque, Paypal or Argos Vouchers. Choosing Argos Vouchers, you gain another £18 in value

Going by the price you quoted from envirophone, I'm going to assume it's a 16GB model?

In which case, you could easily fetch 250+ on this forums classifieds, with the only fee being the postage

Mine is a 16GB model. Think I rather use Avforums Classifieds as you've suggested

Re: Envirofone

After giving your phone to Envirofone, make sure you send your spare gold to Cash4Gold.
