Scratched, back chipped, hard to lock (have to squeeze case together) won't go on silent mode. Works fine other than that, would be a great phone to be mugged with if you have insurance.

my experience with phone recylcing companies are

"welcome sir, we will buy your 3210 for £1,000,000"
"oh great, here you go"
"hmm sir it seems that there is a spec of dust on it, heres the 1p it is now worth, no refunds KTHXBYE"

yeah i guess, apple will swap it for a brand new one for 130.

so need to weigh up, price in current condition vs new phone minus 130 quid.

Take it to Apple and say it won't go into silent mode. They will either repair it or give you a new phone. My mate smashed his screen so took it to Apple and said it had a different problem and they replaced it anyway.

Bought mine Xmas just gone for £220 without any problems. I'd say yours is probably worth £150 max.
