Hi - my daughter isn’t old enough to have a full time phone - but she scooters to school by herself and we want her to be able to call or text if required - just want a cheap phone she can use for this purpose
She has iPad and AirPods etc so would prefer a cheap 2nd hand iPhone over an android

Anyone have anything - perhaps after a Christmas upgrade

What's your location?

My mum has just upgraded from her 32GB iPhone 7 which is now surplus to requirements. Shes based in Timaru.

There's a slight crack in the screen on one edge which doesn't affect usability at all.

$80 sound alright? No charger/cable included though.

@baileym1 Here's a couple of pics, sorry they're not the best. The crack is about 20mm long, which I've tried to highlight. It's always had a screen protector applied, so the rest of the display is in good condition

The battery is at 90% health too, which I forgot to mention earlier. Mum said she's pretty sure the original box is still at their place.

 

The $80 will be separate to courier costs, but that should only be another $15 or so to get it sent up.

Let me know what you think, and PM me if you're keen.
