16 GB iPhone from Colorware (Candy Apple Red & Carbon) - Unboxing

I wouldn't have thought it possible to paint the chrome with any durability. :cool:

Now what type of case will you use to protect the paint job. :)

They have some sort of primer process that supposedly works really well.

As far as a case....I've always kept my previous iPhone naked and I'll do the same with the new one. A case would sort of negate the purpose of painting it.
 
The paint job looks amazing. I couldn't do it...well besides the fact that it's a little too expensive for me (although I think it might even be worth it, looks really nice), I'd hate it that my phone has a nicer paint job than my car. Maybe when I get my new car, I'll get a new phone and get it painted to match. :D
 
I guess that depends on how chipped up the paint is...

Id say its worth $500 unlocked but you could probably get some sucker to pay $600+ for it.

all that money and they didnt paint the charger?

You chose what you want them to paint. The more you want the more it costs! No one sees the charger so not worth the extra.

I love it! such a nice job and the theme just tops it off :) Congrats

My son has a car of those colors. He isn't too much into iphones or macs but I think he would even be impressed. With the red on the screen that just seems like it is too much red. hurts the eyes.

So, how much do you all think I would get for my Colorware 16 GB iPhone if I sold it on eBay now so I can get a new 3G version???

Well, I just sold a Brand New 8Gb on ebay unlocked with Pwnage for 550 shipped. I would guess you can get 650 shipped (buy-it-now w/ free shipping). Also, ship only in your country, don't bother with international shipping unless you are good at it. I would do a 3 day buy-it-now only with immediate payment required. This eliminates the dead beat bidders that would force you to relist. List it today as Monday may break the high price trend on ebay.

You should clear $600 after fees and shipping.

Also, I have sold 6 phones now this way (new, refurb, used). All sold within first day.
 
wow, I am not a fan,

No offense to the OP, but YUCK

Didn't realize until now that this was a 2 month old thread , but anyway. I bet you could get 400-500 for it unlocked on eBay
 
OP, you wouldn't happen to live on Oahu would you? I saw a craigslist with a red iphone just like it. Anyhow, good luck on the ebay
 
That looks amazing! The pics on eBay look even better*. If I could afford it, I'd have it done in the metallic red. :)

Don't forget to update us on how it does.


*ETA: I guess they're the same, just bigger., since I didn't click on the thumbnails :eek:
 
The pictures on the auction are the same pics from 5 months ago.... I don't think that is a good idea. IMO, the auction is way misleading....
