fcuk that, I dont mess around on ebay etc.
Its worth £276 on o2 recycle, which you could probably get another ~£50 more on ebay.
But take out your ebay/paypal fees and the fact you'll probably end up having to deal with some idiot who's found the smallest of scratches which you havent mentioned in your list and that £50 has paid for itself.

o2 recycle it, money straight in the bank, no messing around.

I recon now that very very few companies are trusted with the information pre-release. It would not surprise me if many of them were given the final dimensions on release day. Its often quite a bit after release that you see the major companies release their parts for the new phones. Obviously the China knock-offs are there within days but that is what they are geared up for.

Apple never supply dummies/mock ups/actual devices in advance to any case manufacturers.

You sure?
If that was the case then it'd make the device in the iclarified video either a replica (could be wrong but i don't think actual dimensions have been released, which case bit of a pointless exercise for a case manufacturer) or the real deal (highly unlikely).

Sure.

The device will be a mock up of what a case manufacturer 'thinks' the iPhone 5 will look like based on leaked parts.

Hence the same old stories every year of case manufarturers spending £1000's tooling up and the phone turning out to be something different.

"We have no idea what's going to hit the market," said Irene Baran, CEO of Speck Products. "We listen to the rumors like everyone else does and make intelligent guesses."

I've never claimed it wouldn't be named 5 though. I truly, as most, expected it to be "the new".

Still not the 5th and still no logic behind it.
