    Have a white iphone 4s 16GB in very good condition, wondering where is the best place to sell on old devices. Is it better to sell to a trader eg. carphone warehouse or sell independently on a site like donedeal or ebay. Thank you.

    I had a really good experience with gyg.ie. Using Envirofone was a nightmare because they properly went back on the amount of money they said because there was a scratch that only appeared under their special light. **** that.

    €91.45 from gyg for a 4s 16GB, I sold mine on adverts in 2 days for €200.

    Use adverts.ie. Ebay has issues like people saying it wasnt as described and then looking for a paypal refund. Adverts.ie is very much you see what you get. Plus the bidding on it, stops annoying people texting you "will you take €50 for it"

    you done well. Really well. But, yeah, adverts for phones is about the best, particularly with the seller feedback reassurances

    Having bought an iPhone from eBay, I can say that would be because people aren't always truthful about the condition. You left out the bit about you getting your phone back before giving the refund.
