Where can I get an iPhone 5?

gemz4the1 — Fri, 26 Sep 2014 12:35:10 GMT

Does anyone know where I can get an iPhone 5 on sim free or PAYG?

My mum wants to swap from her iPhone 4s to iPhone 5 but Apple are only selling the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 plus and iPhone 5s. CPW are selling the iPhone 4s but not the iPhone 5.

Thanks in advance for any help

I've been in my CEX today. Lots of them In the cabinet.

You won't find the 5 in many places as its discontinued.

The 5 was discontinued by Apple as soon as the 5s came out.
You might find some on Amazon but I'd guess they will mostly be second hand ones for sale now.

No disrespect to the eBay link but please be wary of Purchasing such items off auction sites and the possible pitfalls.

It does open to eBay selling pages for me but its upto the individual and if site moderators allow the link as its direct to a selling site.

Hi guys,

In this case, as Gemz was specifically asking the question, its OK to link to the page.

As has been said here though, be careful on any site when purchasing items

Thanks for the help

I am a bit wary about buying iPhones off eBay as my sister was sold a dodgy one last time and we only knew when we took it to the Apple shop.

I completely forgot about the CEX shop so I will look there for my mum.

I guess it was stupid to think that I could get her a brand new one.

Not stupid at all.

At least with buying one from a shop you have a point of contact to go back to if needed ,and CEX adds 12 months warranty on too.

eBay now gives buyers a money back guarantee, and using a credit card with PayPal also protects your purchase. If you buy from a highly rated eBay seller there should be no problems. It's certainly no more dangerous than buying from a third party seller on Amazon. In fact, many Amazon sellers also sell on eBay.
