I 'm looking to get a new Virgin pay as you go phone. I had decided on getting a Nokia 6300 and looked around at prices. Phones 4 U was best at £70.
I then looked on eBay to see if I could get a bargain. 6300s on eBay were generally going for over £80 and BuyItNow prices were approx £90 - £120. I realise some of these phones are unlocked but you can get a PAYG phone for another network and unlock it for a total of £80.
Can anyone explain why the eBay prices are so high? Surely buying from Phones 4 U with poor customer service is better than spending £10 more to get it second hand with no customer service?
