    Have you ever walked into a Carphone Warehouse/Vodafone/O2/3/Meteor store and seen secondhand phones for sale?

    Terms like 'reputable' and 'refurbished' are sort of incompatible when it comes to mobiles.

    Try Moore St., the side opposite the enrance to the ILAC centre. If you walk in from Henry St. there are several phone shops on the right. There's always lots for sale on www.adverts.ie

    Make sure you have a SIMM ready to test the phone and make sure that it's not blacklisted.

    adverts.ie or eBay. if buying on adverts, check the phone over before handing over cash.

    Usually they are in good nick, generally they are brand new from my experience buying if you keep an eye out for few weeks.

    Legitimate businesses don't hide their addresses.

    Have you experience of them? Most reviews I have found seem ok. Just wondering if any boards users bought from them.
