Where to sell old phone?

I've got a new phone and I am looking to sell my old Nokia Lumia 800 as I won't be using it anymore, the guy in the phone shop said its almost mint condition but as I've never sold one before I don't know where to start. I'm not going to lie I want somewhere where I can just sell it quite fast so have been lookig at envirofone and places like that but it only comes to like £25 but I came across CeX and theres one near me, has anyone ever sold anything through them before?

Money 4 machines typically offers best money for quick cash solutions. They're very reputable too.

Not to any of these dodgy websites thats for sure. There is a reason why some of them probably go out the way to send you a cheque for your old phones....

eBay sounds obvious but it could be your best bet- there's one Lumia 800 auction ending soon with the bid currently up to £75 and another approaching the £50 mark. By comparison CEX are offering £54 for a Grade A model, which means mint condition with all packaging and accessories if it's unlocked, and between £51 and £39 for Grade A carrier-locked models. If yours gets into that £70 range you'd probably make a bit more, after fees and postage, than selling it to a company that will inevitably want to make a profit off of your phone. I've sold a few bits to CEX and never had any issues, their prices have always been a little higher than other electronics buy/sell websites when I've used them and haven't wanted to faff around with selling it myself or needed the cash quickly.
