Orphan iPhone 8GB, Give him a home!!!!!

[Redon]

I have a bullied, beaten up, sad little 8GB iPhone. he is currently a foster child and needs a home (current home, iPhone box underneath my bed).

He has scratches on the back and some really bad dents, also the front bezel is not very shiny anymore :frown: His screen is great, but thats only because he a had a little plastic shield (screen protector)

i don't want much for the little fella. i will gladly let him go for $200-$170. Just also long as he is not abused anymore. He does not have any cables or headphones. he is all alone and would love a dock and maybe some headphones, but sadly he does not. can you provide him with some? Maybe a nice iMac to sync up with? he has been stuck with a PC his whole life.

So, here is the sale specs

Price:
$200-$170

Included:
iPhone 8GB


PS: his name is Johnson, so if you want to buy him please don't call him "phone"

B: where is my phone WRONG
A: where is my Johnson RIGHT!

Ps: this is a real ad, im really selling him. this is not a joke =)

i know, i just want to get rid of it. besides. $170 buck to me is a lot for a slightly abused iPhone. also, there is this idiot on cragislist that i deal with every year and he says he will be selling me his 3G 16GB for $250 so im good.

PS: funniest (steve, is that a word?) youtube video ever.

[Napoleon_PhoneApart]

Your ad was so well-written and heartfelt that I almost bought it, though I have no use for it.

Who is Steve?

[Redon]

Jobs. When the ipt2g came out the slogan was funniest ipod ever and some questioned his choice of words.

Also, johnson is crying now because he says he is going to be sent to someone who will be another abuser.

[Redon]

Ok guys. i just swapped out the housing. the phone is now FLAWLESS!, screen is still perfect but i swapped out the front bezel and back cover/antenna cover with brand new ones. my asking price is now $229 OBO please someone buy it quick

still for sale, not the quickest sale

[Redon]

ok, mods close this one too. i decided to keep it. it might come back some day though.

[projectdarkside]

What made you keep it :)

[Redon]

Idk :p. I think I just got a little worried about selling this, it should be my backup phone or something.

[projectdarkside]

Thats cool:2cool:
-Heh you have the best back up phone anyone could ever have lol!

[Pimpboy51]

Lol, very true. And i'm not lying you made the thread so heart felt that you made the phone look like it was a real child. Man I would buy this as a backup but you just took it off the market LOL. Anyways lol enjoy the brand new orphan!

Welcome to EiC..sorry but the iphone we are talking about happens to have a broken earpiece (cant hear calls w/o headphones). also, i would edit your post and remove you email. dont want those stupid spammers to flood your inbox, right :tounge:

[pretty p]

Redon thanks for the warm welcome . Just curious though , would that ear piece be a hard fix?

[pretty p]

Is that ear piece problem a hard fix? Just curious. Thanks for the warm welcome also. Sorry if I double posted too I'm on my bold and can't see if my reply posted

Your welcome. The earpiece is fused onto the mid-board mid-boards cost about $60 bucks and you have to take the whole phone apart. its really just not worth it and it would be like selling your ipod touch for 100 bucks. but you can trade your bold on craigslist for a 16GB iphone 3G easy... might as well wait for the 3GS to be released and trade your touch and bold for one of them. :laugh2:

[pretty p]

hey redon...it totally crossed my mind that i was trying to purchase this phone for my son for data use only ....meaning...it doesnt matter if the ear piece isnt working...so if you'd like to sell it or even trade...i have a few items to barter....hahah
