If I were to buy an iPhone 3G, how much should I expect to pay for one
in decent condition?

That answer is likely to change in the next week, what with certain
other events. I'd recommend waiting a fortnight for things to settle
down, watching completed auctions on eBay.

Oh, shame. There is a very good UK eBay window at 15.00-17.00 this
afternoon, when many auctions will finish lower than they usually would,
and I was wondering whether to take advantage of it.

O2 are buying them back at £170'ish for a 16 GB 3G; presumably this
will drop soon.

Once the iPhone 4 hits the shelves on Saturday, half of everyone who
got a 3G under 18/24month contract will be flogging their old phone -
I'm fairly sure that'll produce a glut leading to a lot of cheap
sales, but one can never be certain.

Why is there a low price window today? Oh! I see, good point.
