iPhone demand
Right guys,
I recently sold my iPhone 5 16gb on ebay and received £480, which I thought was a hell of an amount! I was willing to take £300.
Anyway, I wanted to upgrade to a 64gb, which i found one on gumtree for £420, sealed, brand new and with a case etc.
So anyway, £60 profit!
But then, I have been looking up the price of 64gb on ebay and I have watched a few brand new ones going for around £500 mark.
So why are people willing to pay £480 for a 16gb, but only £500 for a 64gb?
Answer this question fellassss

64gb would be worthless storage for most iPhone users. Why pay a massive premium for storage you don't need
My thoughts anyway

You bought an iphone off of gumtree? Did he mention where it was stolen from..
My phones knackered, and I've been considering getting a 4 or 4s from ebay, purely for the price. Just can't bring myself to do it though, I would much prefer the peace of mind buying from orange or apple!

This, i don't keep music on my phone, so i use about 10gb tops.. 64 would be pointless and wasted on most people, so not many people bother to pay for one with that much space

I think everyone's different. I've had an iPhone 4, and I have a 4S right now which is 16gb and I Hate it! I love having all my photos on my phone, and all my music, and videos that I've taken in the past to keep on me at all times.
I'd get at 32gb iPhone 5 but I think its silly when I could pay the extra bit of cash and get a 64gb.
Most people don't even fill up a 16gb but they don't store shitloads of music on it.

I'm doing the same, I have a 4S at the moment and I want a 64gb iPhone 5 but I can't buy it off some random person, I'll have to get it from Apple which will cost a bomb but at least I'll have peace of mind
How much are the 4S' going for on Ebay? I sold one of mine for 300euros on Saturday.

I always have a 64gb as mines full off music as it connects to my van when I am driving for 10hours a day. When it broke and borrowed my ex's 8gb phone it nearly killed me but on resale they don't sell for much more
