I have a Vodafone locked and branded Blackberry 8800 which I'm considering selling, I don't think there will be much interest/value in it as Vodafone data plans are poor and the device isn't cheap to unlock.

Condition is generally very good, there are a couple of small black marks on the silver trim at the side. The Blackberry logo on the Blackberry case is tarnished, while the marks on the Blackberry itself are not very noticeable I would think the case isn't going to be much use. I can get some detailed pictures of both of these if required.

The 8800 is fully boxed with charger, usb data cable, case, headset (need to check it's there, never used it) plus a 1GB microSD card (with SD adapter).

For payment bank transfer and cheque are fine, I'm a little wary of Paypal as a 'seller' due to its reputation. Collection would be more than welcome but I'm up in Inverness which I doubt anyone is going to be near.

If this helps VF are now offering their handsets on contract unlocked and are giving away the unlock codes for handsets free to all existing contract owners so may be worth giving them a call ( Iknow a few people who have phoned up and got them already)

Peter, to be honest if Vodafone had a decent data plan I wouldn't be getting rid of it. However Vodafone data plans are a complete joke and seems there's no sign of that changing.

Here's the case:



And the slight black marks, there's a more noticeable pair on the top left (facing the front) and some smaller ones on the other side:



You can just see them on the lower edge, the silver edge is a pain in the neck to get photos off without a lightbox:



Honestly though you wouldn't notice these unless looking closely, as you can probably tell by the ports above these are very close up shots. This is a slightly further back shot:



I definitely think it's one of the best looking blackberries by far, the black and silver give it quite a classy look.
