This is a discussion on Market price for 3g? within the iPhone 3G forums, part of the Apple iPhone category; Now that there is talk of the new iPhone, I'm starting to wonder what the going rate for the 3g ...
Now that there is talk of the new iPhone, I'm starting to wonder what the going rate for the 3g will be once the new one is released. Does anyone have any predictions? If the new phone is $300, can you sell a 3g for that?
The reason the 3G can sell for so much in the open market (ie, eBay) is that they are sold unlocked and do not come with a contract. The $299 was for a contract price and without the phone is going to be quite a bit more expensive.

So say the new phone comes out and they're selling at the Apple store for $300. Could you sell your current 16 gb 3g phone for $300?
I would gamble to say that you could easily sell a 16GB iPhone 3G for $300 when the new phone is released.
