Difference of used iPhone value between pre and post WWDC

[coolwater]

If you could remember the average going price of a used iPhone before this year's WWDC, how much did it drop after WWDC?

Just sold mine today for $400. 16gig white. LOCKED. It didn't drop in price by much I'd say.

It's definitely gone down in terms of raw demand AND in price. I have had my locked 3G 16GB White on eBay now for almost a week and the top offer I have gotten is $300. It's in great condition, only about six months old;

I guess it might depend on the area. I put mine up on craigslist and sold it within 15 minutes.

Definitely went down. I sold mine (8GB Black) for $400 pre-WWDC (like a week prior).

Yeah gotta be careful with Craigslist deals.

Damn straight. A co worker of mine had his generator stolen a couple of weeks ago and saw the same model listed on Craigs list the next morning. Met the guy in a Wal Mart parking lot and it was his generator (he had some custom crap bolted on so hard to mistake it for a different one).

The cops didn't even want to help him get it back, so he had to set up a sting with the guy and a friend of a friend turned out to be a SWAT sergeant so it all worked out.

I bet the kid who stole it **** a brick when a SWAT van and three cop cars showed up to recover the property.

Glad it worked out for the best!

Curiously, those who are saying the prices definitely went down, how much more could I have sold my 3G for pre-WWDC?

Sold my black 16 gb for $350 the day the 3GS came out 😛 For some reason, it seems that craigslist is easier to sell for a higher price than ebay.
