Buyer beware!

[sarah707]

I've taken it to 2 shops to ask advice - they both say it needs a new front which is £80 - £120. The button is integral to the screen. These new phones are so thin aren't they?

I've posted a warning message on the buy / sell and on my own FB. The owner of the buy/ sell has been lovely but once the money has changed hands there is nothing anyone can do.

The trouble I have - the same as all you guys - if I shout too loudly what's the first thing nasty little thieves and liars do? They try to damage your business

As Sarah I am so sorry hugs for you xx

It's a horrible position to be in.....probably against your nature I'm thinking you may have to let it go this time

[Allie]

Such horrible people out there, sending hugs

[The Juggler]

Sending a huge hug hon. It is so awful people can do this. Can you review her on the buy-sell section on FB? I hope you get somewhere with her mum shaming her into it or if not hope the man with the mini screwdrivers can fix it. xx

Have you looked on eBay for a replacement front, my home button went on the iPhone, hubby bought one for about £3 off eBay and fitted it for me, was quoted £70 on the market.

There are some nasty people about and they pray on such lovely trusting people as yourself. Big hugs

[charleyfarley]

A huge hug is being sent your way

Some people just want to make money quick and don't care who they hurt in the process.

Because we (forum members) are all such nice people we think everyone else is too - sorry you got caught out, I don't know the first thing about technology so can't offer any advice - I'm still using my trusty brick - probably why my shoulder is playing up again!

[sarah707]

Thank you all so much for your lovely messages on here, fb and pms. I have been so upset and cross with myself



I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am!

A friend saw my plight and has offered me his phone because he has just upgraded to a new model!

So I am getting a new phone after all!

I am a complete mess I keep bursting into happy tears!

And I made all the teenagers jealous which was a priceless moment!

I am a very very lucky me!
