Quick look on eBay they seem to sell for between £275 and £450, all down to memory size and condition...

So depends if you want to squeeze more out of your sale; or keep it smooth/painless and just trade it in with Apple
I want the latter. It's the first time I am buying an iPhone since iPhone 5. Never traded my devices before as normally sold them on eBay. In fact, sold my Fold 4 on eBay and they took a good £90 off me in fees. Then £12 for postage and insurance... Ouch!!!! I guess I'll let them have it for £300.

Sorry to ask, but how long does the whole process of refund takes. I have received an email to say I'll have 14 days to ship the phone as soon as I get their kit. Do I just send them the phone only and no chargers and box?

Mazuma have come up with the goods again for me. They've received the phone today and honoured the £725 valuation no questions asked.

Just received confirmation that my iPhone Pro 14 has been accepted by Envirofone. Got £510 for it even tho it had a massive scratch on one of the edges…sent off as ‘excellent’ condition.
Pretty pleased with that!

More likely just a labelling error (wrong package sent to the address): I can't imagine Amazon aren't checking people as they leave the warehouse at the end of their shift to make sure they're not leaving with small very expensive electronic items, can you?

Not sure how it’s being done, but it’s been reported many times with high value items and Amazon. There were loads of reports of it when the PS5 was launched, and similar stories are a regular feature in the consumer finance press.

Following DPD's double fail on Friday and Saturday I now have a timeslot today of 15:31-16:31 for my order from JL so I've some 7 hours of app watching ahead of me (which I don't mind too much as long as they actually deliver the damn thing today!)

EDIT: The app has just updated to show that my delivery will be the 95th on the driver's round :rolleyes:
At long last my 15 Pro from JL is here, more than 3 days after its first departure from the local DPD depot but just within today's estimated timeslot. (Someone said that the app tracking lags? For me it was delivered when it was still at 80 deliveries out of 95.) Now all I have to do is get my £4.99 back from DPD for the failed Saturday delivery.

Anyway, while I've been waiting it's been useful to read here about issues with transferring data when the iOS version needs to be 7.0.2 so I'm getting that sorted right now. 🙂

Having worked at an Amazon FC before, I can confirm when there’s a will, there’s a way. This sort of crime and activity is very well organised….

You need to wait for the 80% off selling or £1 listing/final sale offers

There's one live currently, ends midnight tonight. See if you can get into that ASAP

I never sell at full whack costs on eBay; only when there are offers on

But yes, a trade in would be much easier

Looks amazing congrats 😃
Thanks. I'm finding the clay case matches the phone's hues well. The case changes colour depending on the light. Bright natural daylight it goes greyer, but with darker and/or artificial light it goes to a warmer browner tinge.
