You are a sad little person arent you? I think you are on the wrong forum, try windowsrumors.com
"A Fool And His Money Are Easily Parted"
Nonetheless, the value is raised. Next time simply write, "I apologize, I was mistaken in my original assertion."
The values look similar for a mint USED iphone 4 but still less than a BNIB iPhone 4
why would I apologize for something that is not incorrect, my comment was that fools will buy anything (especially on eBay) like used pieces of gum, doesn't mean its valuable
The same group that is paying such a high price for a white iPhone is the same group that thinks spending $200+ for a NON OEM non warranty color change is a good idea
Have fun with your warranty repairs
btw, white iPhone aside, what kind of lame comeback is this ?

Your warranty is only void if you take the white iPhone to the apple store.
You can switch everything back to the black parts and the genius will be none the wiser. You should read up a bit more before making assumptions.
So yes, im sure they will have fun
.I'm not sure you know what the word "value" means.
Who cares? If their money is green, it has value.
Not sure who you are addressing here. If it's me, I still have a black phone. I doubt warranty repairs are "fun" either way.
agreed. Again guys, don't feed the troll. it's like that saying:
Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Who care about the value because the iphone is for personal use, not for sale.
warranty? if something wrong with the iphone, then just get a new one .. why thinking so much about warranty?
FYI : Spending hundreds or thousands dollar for our self is not wasting money at all, but its adding value to our self..

I wrote a review on my recently converted iphone 4 https://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=11732685#post11732685
Hey i read this whole post, it goes up and down, Im confused??? I want to get my phone converted to white but there are several companies but there is negative feedback everywhere! What should I do? I need ot get it done this week... any suggestions??
I have a guy who does an excellent job. Have not had any issues and quick turn around. See pictures of my phone here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1076155/
Looks pretty sweet! Where did you get yours done at? Are the parts good quality and durable? I wanted to get it done in full white i read some posts saying there is an option for a white headphone and the connector is this true? let me know thanx
I got it done on eBay. The Parts are high quality and durable. The dock port and headphone jack are the originals but you wouldn't ever notice and Id rather have the originals so I know the work right.
The headphone jack and dock connect in white are originals? Im not sure if you mean they are original because apple never released it. What is the price for everything? back front headphone and dock connector? I also need it installed. Thanks
I mean the headphone and dock were not changed but I guess he can do it if you asked. I paid $225 for everything and that included parts and installation.
They did the phone and shipped it back the next day. The total time from me shipping the phone to me getting it back was 4 days.
i think ifixdirect is getting better now. After about two months (since i got the conversion kit) they ignore my email i finally chat with one of the guy on sunday 9/1 ask them to convert my iphone (because i can't do the conversion by my self). I complaint that none of them reply my email for two months and he said ifixdirect under new management now and i can trust them and bla bla bla .. After i pay the service fee through paypal, he sent me shipping label to my mail. I sent out my black iphone with the conversion kit on monday 10/1 and got it back on friday 14/1 in white. They sent the black parts back to me as i requested. I received the phone in good condition. The phone looks nice and all working well (wiFi, camera, bluetooth,etc).
They did full conversion including phone jack and dock connector and gave me $20 discount
The only things i don't like is in dark room there is some light leak from the back cover on both sides. But that's not really bothering me, i am happy with my white iphone.
If you want to give them a try, its up to you ..

Heads up, prepare to be accused of being ifixdirect lol.
hahaha .. that's funny ..
but well, if anyone look back to page 17 you can see when the first time i post a picture when i got the conversion kit from ifixdirect about 2 months ago. Then on page 18 there is my post asking for help, if any of you guys know a place that can do a conversion because i can't convert it by my self.
But then, feel desperate no one can help, then i have no choice except to contact ifixdirect to do the conversion which is the result not too bad at all.
FYI : i live in Jefferson - Louisiana
ifixdirect ship the phone
