Got a Nokia 8890 (hair dressers phone) for sale, best offer secures. Works in the US and the UK. Not locked to Network, but won't work with Orange.
About 4 months old with charger, etc.
Cheers Phill C

Rick,
LOL at you....
The rest of you this phone will cost you in excess of £400 for an upgrade..... I'm looking for a little more than currently been offered.
If that's the best you can do, I'll let my daughter or wife have it...
Cheers Phill C

Just been sent this, and replied to the sender.
"Just seen your thread for the phone for sale...
You mention about the high number of view's without offer's...
The fact that the phone doesn't work with Orange will put the people off who use Orange.
Also, if a phone won't work with a particular network, it could be that it was lost or stolen while on that network and so has been barred, so that would put people off.
Now I'm NOT saying your phone is stolen etc, just that people could assume that it was!
That's why I've emailed you this reply instead of posting it on scoobynet...I wouldn't want to give people the wrong impression of you as I'm sure you wouldn't be advertising it on the bbs if it was dodgy.
Hope this email hasn't affended you, it was just to give you an insight into why the response has been lacking.
Good Luck with the phone sale"
Thanks for that, you know who you are.
My reply:-
"Thanks for the reply, and I appreciate the feedback to be fair. No the phone isn't stolen, I'd be a little daft advertising it on Scoobynet. The reason it won't work on Orange is that it works on 1900 MHz (US standard) and Vodaphone / Cellnet (900 MHz) Orange use 1800 MHz. Normal UK phones are 900 / 1800 MHz. I got it following the need to travel to the US a few month ago.
Seriously, thanks for the feedback, looking at what i've written, your right."
Cheers Phill C
PS Hope everything is a little clearer now
