Re: Cheap phone buying advice needed
Some idea of your daughter's idea of "cheap" would be helpful. Along with any specific requirements like radio speed and band coverage.
I'd always favour (new) old stock over s/h old stock for this sort of stuff and probably be looking at things like these:
US$160 Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 http://www.ebay.com/itm/261974415727
US$210 Note 2 GT-N7100 http://www.ebay.com/itm/252032497383
US$310 Note 3 GT-N9005 http://www.ebay.com/itm/331609748395
