Selling old mobile phones ?
 
Saw a feature in the Sunday paper about how REALLY old mobile phones are fetching serious money - I've got a couple which according to the feature are worth £150 a piece - but cant find where to sell them - it's not sites such as Mazuma. Any ideas?

Is ebay stating the obvious or are you trying to avoid there like a lot off folk with there stupidly high fees etc ??!!

wonder if nigerian scammers will try it on with the old " brick " ??!!!

good luck noticed that article myself !!!

I sold me Blackberry 8900 Curve on Ebay last month.
£82!

But, Paypal took about £3 and Ebay now want another £8! That's 13.5% in fees!
Not doing that again. :razz:

You could always try the likes of Gumtree, but all my old phones go to Mazuma these days, might not be the best price but it us simple and gives me cash in the bank which isn't bad for a free phone:D

Yes but Im talking non-digital mobile phones - so more collectors rather than for actual use.....

I found a website called www.retrobrick.com They will buy certain old phones but are quite specific on what they buy
