Have you ever had to sell your phone because you got a new one?

I don't sell my old phones because I don't change phones unless it is broken and beyond repair.I don't know it was just my habit already.

Hello Well, you surely got good deal. I mean you have already used your phone for 2 years and still you got 70% of new phone cost. So it is really great deal for you. That installment is little trouble, but its okay as you are getting good deal. Good point for you is that you have already another phone (good one) so that you don't have to purchase the new phone instantly, so installment will be not problem for you.

Sell the old phone can help save money, but as I always store a lot of private information in my phone, I am afraid my information will be abused by other people, so in most cases, I will keep the old one with me and never give it or sell it to unfamiliar people. Usually I will give the old phone to my mother, my mother will use it and I do not need to worry about privacy problem.

Hi chiyosan,I have never sold my cell phone even when it became old,I still have 3 instruments with me and when someone in the family wants one because of an emergency like having lost their cell phone or given it for repairs , they borrow one of mine and t=return it once they get theirs back.It is also used by my children when they visit India and need a different number which works out much cheaper.. all the best and enjoy your day

Well,that was good.And i hope you are enjoying your new Samsung Galaxy S3.It is great phone.I am using currently the Samsung Galaxy S and is finding it great apart from the battery.And i think your brother also would have been happy with the fact, he got things from you and can trust the things.Plus he got things at a cheaper rate and there were screen protector and things.Good for him.Well,i did sell one of my handsets to my friend.It was first handset i bought after getting a job.It was Nokia 3230.It was not great and plus highly overvalued for things.I used for 2 years with several downs and finally sold it to my friend for 1/3 of its original price.It was tough living with that phone but then since it was my first phone after a job,kept it with me.I bought another Nokia phone which was much better and great in performance. And i was happy with it.All these happened 7 years ago and that was a wonderful time.And well there was no android phones at that point of time and it was all Nokia dominated phone industry.Apart from that i have not sold any of my phones as most of them were bought by my dad.I keep all of them in loving memory of his as he is no more.Thanks!

When we got new phones we just traded in our old ones for credit. They weren't worth selling.

Lucky brother! I have not sold any of my phones except for the very first phone I had which was a Nokia 6110. (Eeeww!). Then I bought the much loved 3310! hahaha (am I that old). But the succeeding phones I had, well, it was either I gave it away or just kept inside a drawer. Now I am actually using 2 phones. The one I used most is the SII coz it has a wider screen which is perfect for more poor eyes.

Hi, I like very simple mobile phone without having complex functions. I have purchased many years before Nokia N-70. But I gave it to my wife and I purchased simple phone only having FM. But I don't use it. I use it only for receiving calls and making calls. My son has changed his mobile many times. Two of them are working and are kept in our house. two of them we gave to my wife's students free. Because they are ready to help us any time. He sold only one cell phone in the store and purchased Samsung Galaxy SII phone and now he don't want to change it.

Haha very nice one chiyosan. Its been there for 2 years and you still manage to sold it at that price. Considering the length of time you are utilizing that phone and the amount of money you managed to gain from selling it, I think its really a good deal!

iT Depends IF i need money since i spend my money buying a new one. Then I would but If I have extra money I will just keep it as long as I can for it's sentimental value.

I think you make a good deal to your brother. I think i also want to buy new cellphone. My cellphone not like a cellphone again. I have 2 cellphone and 1 of my cellphone in very bad condition. I think nobody want to buy it so i will keep it and make it as history.

no i give to my mom or my wife or to any relative that need it LOL

No, because for me and my siblings, we just pass it on to each other or to our parents. Or sometimes the reason to change mobile phones is when it needs changing instead of repairing :)

Since the old cellphones are not worthy so much. Here people often change their cellphones, especially the youngs. And therefore you can't expect that your old cellphone can be sold with a nice price. This is why I prefer to keep it at home. If one day my current cellphone doesn't work, at least I have a backup cellphone that I can use for a while.

that is really nice of you chiyosan. it is good that you sold your phone to your brother without much of a mark-up. actually, there really isn't one and in fact you sold it at a lower price. anyway, i'm sure that is fine since you've used the phone for two years already. i'm sure your brother appreciated the gesture. personally, i haven't sold any of my previous phones. i usually lost the phones or break these! lol! i'm the one that usually buys the old phones of my parents or siblings. such is the curse that i'm burdened with. lol! anyway, it'll be nice to sell a used but still in good condition phone. at least you get something back from the phone that you've used before. cheers chiyosan!!!

No, I have never sold my old phone aftrer buying a new one. I end up giving my old phone to my granddaughter who just uses it to watch netflix, an dplay games on it anyway. I just let her have it, and that is fine with me too. Most of the time, I just end up keeping the old pho0ne, instead of getting rid of it. I also have a galaxy s3, and it is the best phone I have ever had and used. it has lots of features and i enjoy using it alot. i even use it to post into mylot with it. Mobile phones are so great to have, and I would be lost without mine. take care, and have a great day.

You are lucky enough to buy whatever you want. I have still my old cell phone because I do not have money to buy new one. My sister also got a new cell phone and I did not know where she got her money. Maybe from her work. Well, lucky those people who work outside from home because the money they received from employer is guaranteed unlike here on work online. Of course, they can buy whatever they want if the money is being received every month like what you did.

THat is a good deal that you had after two years of using that phone. My husband boguht Samsung Galaxy S3 too and he had sell it four months after using it. I am not satisfied with the sale because the price is almost half. Cell phone/gadgets drops price fast. Imagine he bought it for more than 30thousand pesos and we had sold it for only 17thousand. He seldoms use it even in text and it has no scratches. Would you believe that the S3 price now is only 17k?

I've never sold my phones... I actually don't think anyone would by my old cell phone, as it was a regular one, and now, everyone wants to get a smartphone.
