Been offered an upgrade, which I will sell as I am happy with what I have got.

So which of the following will sell for the most? (Cant access e-bay at work to check).

Blackberrys (9300, Bold 9780,8520 Curve, Pearl, 9300, Torch)

HTC (Trophy, Legend, Desire, Desire Z, Desire S, Sensation, etc)

In fact, pretty much everything except iphone.

Thanks

Have you tried asking how much they will reduce your line rental if you don't upgrade? Mine halved

HTC Sensation's probably the best bet...

+1. A simplicity type deal will typical be half the price of a contract phone one, and has a shorter contract too smile

Thanks fot that, good idea.

But work pay the bill, so its for profit in full.

I have called them inthe mean time and I can have an iphone 4 if I want, I reckon that will raise a few quid.

Try the mobile phone exchange companies like mopay etc so see what they would offer for each handset. Will be less than eBay but should give you an idea of the most valuable. Or just try and get a White iPhone 4 32GB wink

I can get one of those but have to pay £40 towards it!

I would imagine it is worth at least £40 more than every single other mobile phone on the market, the White iPhone 4 is hot property in 32GB guise.

You should probably google the term "obtaining property by deception"

The upgrade phone simply wouldn't belong to you, it belongs to your company.

All covered off. They are fully aware. I own the contract but claim the bill back via expenses.

Gotcha, the way your previous posts were worded it sounded otherwise. Carry on!
