When you hit 70* you don't get a choice, although the good news is it's free (or was last year).






* I look 90 in the photo :erm:

I put a collection in with Royal Mail on Tuesday but nobody turned up so I rescheduled it for yesterday Wednesday which did get picked up. The device is currently on route to its destination.

I got a revised offer of a whooping 6£. Do I risk eBay :confused:

Re: Compare and recycle
 

I wouldn't bother, it's got a cracked back.

Re: Compare and recycle
 

6 is my favourite number I'm going to accept. :D

Re: Compare and recycle
 

Really not worth the amount of time and effort you put into it and possible cost of postage.

Yes go for it then!!

Re: Compare and recycle
 

For £6? (!!)

To go through all the hassle to sell something that is cracked / broken. Expecting £50 or more and then think 'it's normal' to sell in that condition.

Best case scenario is to keep it as a back up phone if ever needed, cut your (tiny) loses and just get another.

This was his original backup phone and I think he's upgraded his backup phone to a Google Pixel 6 Pro, his main phone is a Google Pixel 9 XL Pro.

My old phones get put to one side and never get used or see the light of day again.

Re: Compare and recycle
 

Yes SnoopZ.

There was no best case scenario the device was annoying me. OnePlus updates are wishful thinking. I have a Google pixel 6 pro as a secondary device now. The only negative is that the 6 pro only has one physical SIM slot. No bother. My secondary SIM doesn't have data so it needs taking out if I ever need to put in my primary SIM. Disabling mobile data on individual sims doesn't always work. I've lost a load of credit before.

Re: Compare and recycle
 

How often do you use your back up phone and and the reasons you had to use it?

Re: Compare and recycle
 

Everyday. I listen to a load of podcasts on it, having YouTube lives on in the background is perfect, no ads too ;) I don't have socials on my main but I do have anonymous WhatsApp/Telegram accounts on the secondary device. On those apps I have people in different countries that do shopping for me. I'm not paying £140 odd for some Nikes when I can get them for a fraction of that price elsewhere. I browser sites like this site on the device other examples 4pda, XDA, platinmods. Some black market research ;) incoming phone calls

The secondary device is basically everything I don't want my primary SIM associated with.

Re: Compare and recycle
 

lol. All that and you need advice on selling a phone and end up selling a knackered phone for £6. :rolleyes::D :rofl:

Re: Compare and recycle
 

People move in mysterious way :angel:

Re: Compare and recycle
 

Hopefully you burnt alot of calories with the hassle of selling this crappy phone for £6 to help with your get fit plan, you may have spent money on postage already so less than than £6, just wait until they reject it because you never sold it with a cable or charger.
