I have a mint 16gb black Verizon iPhone 4 with all original packaging and cables and a mint 32gb black Verizon iPhone 4 also with all original packaging and cables to sell (gf and I bought white models) and I'd really like to sell them here but I can't find a marketplace. Maybe I don't have enough posts?

Anyway, besides eBay and CraigsList, are there any other marketplace-type forums people can suggest where I could post these? I have a very positive history on other forums for selling my lightly-used phones. I upgrade frequently.

Thanks for any help.
 
Only users with a history of 250 posts (user title 6502 or higher) and membership for at least 6 months can access the Marketplace forum. Only users with a history of 100 posts can post in the Politics, Religion, Social Issues forum. If you start a "for sale" thread or political thread in another forum to avoid this rule, your thread will be deleted. Once you reach 100 or 250 posts, you may not immediately be able to post in these forums. The privilege is added automatically when the forum system does routine processing, so check again in a few hours. The delay is normal, so please do not contact us to report it as a problem on the same day that you reach 100 or 250 posts. When you first gain access to the Marketplace forum, you will see it in the Community section of the forums.

What saving said ^

Not to knock the marketplace here but you'll rarely get above average market value. Everybody here knows what they're buying and what your selling. You'll have equal luck on ebay/craigslist and won't have to wait to get to 250 posts. Once you get there go nuts though. I love the market place here.
 
I would definitely say Craigslist is the best. You get cash in hand and no listing fees. The only thing is it's saturated market and can be tough. I would just say be very clear and concise with pictures and post your number. People who really want it will call over email. If you do not feel comfortable posting your number, get a number on Google Voice and have it forwarded to your number. That way, they can contact you without you giving out your real number. I would also peruse and search the wanted sections or the cell phones sections for sales leads.
