I can get Iphone 3 GS for $500 in Canada no contract or $99 (8GB) with 3 years contract.

However this ebay listing was sold for $1124 !!!.

The description says:

quote:
You're purchasing a black iPhone 3GS 8GB. If you've never had one, it's an incredible phone.

The phone has a few minor scratches on the back and a slight scratch on the front. It doesn't affect the usability of the phone. All the buttons work fine. The phone belonged to my girlfriend's father, who now has the 4G. He asked me to sell the phone for him. Unfortunately, he wanted to keep the charger cables to have an extra pair, so cables are not included nor do I have the original box. Other than that, phone is great. It is not unlocked.

The pictures taken are of the actual phone.

Great way to purchase an iPhone without a new 2 year contract with AT&T!

There several negative side of this item, such as:

- obviously not a brand new one
- It is not unlocked.
- The phone has a few minor scratches
- No charger cables
- No original box.

Even I can get the latest Iphone 4G for $600... but how can the above old Iphone was sold that much...$ 1124 !!!.

Am I missing something here?
