I just sold my second iPhone on eBay... It's real easy... The most money I got for my iPhone 4 was 280.00... Don't set a reserve or buy it now... I did 5 times and the highest bid I received was 180.00... Decided to try one last time with out a reserve or buy it now and got 280.00..I even put my shipping at 25.00 because I ship everything ups and ground on a iPhone is easily 18 bucks... Good luck

I'm not 100% up to speed on the ebay stuff like my wife, but doesn't setting a reserve mean that is the minimum price the item can be sold for? If you need a certain amount why would it be a bad thing to set a reserve? Thanks for your input.

I sold an HTC on southeastern.com for $200 and didn't have to deal with eBay

I'm going to put it on southeasttexas.com and Craigslist too. Going to try and cover all the bases.

I sold a couple of my old phones on eBay. It is pretty simple. Just make sure you give a really good description as to the condition of the phone, because people will nitpick you over the tiniest blemish. I'd make sure that when you ship it that you wrap it up tight and definitely spring for insurance, delivery confirmation and get a tracking number.
