yeah but look at it this way you have a contract phone and you pay £35 a month so really you are still gonna pay that £35 a month so after 18 months you have still spent:

275 + £35 x18 months making grand total of: £905.00

or the car phone warehouse way is £630 including a sim with unlimited texts and a phone (which you could sell for cash) which was what I did and made 75 quid.so end total: £630 - £75 = £555

Hmmmm plus my way you dont have to spend £300 quid at once!!!

Was just a suggestion. only works well if you due soon for upgrade on phone

£246 from Play with Marc's code.

£630 if free with phone contract, (18mnth), and poor selection of phones would only get back about £80-100, plus the extra hassle negates that idea. cheers though.

15 % off sounds good.

my ps2 is a fat black one, so probs not worth much, but there's about 12 games i think.
only worth about £50-80 then?

phone contract's not a bad idea, and at least that would be like installments. I'm not due a new one, but i could flog the phone, lose the sim, cancel after 12 months? or is it a longer contract?

i didn't think i'd be too bothered, as i haven't used my ps2 in about a year, but i badly want one now that GTA4 is out.
also played online cod4 at a mates recently which was ace too. plus gt5 :cool:

they're all like £300 with 1 controller + 1 game.
cheapest i've seen is £290 i think.

anyone know of anywhere cheaper than this?
(i'm quite tight)
