When I was just a young (and poor) kid in high school I was looking for ways to make some side money and help my family out over long summer breaks. I learned the IPhone 3G and 3GS were both (1) Super cheap when ‘broken’ on eBay and (2) *very* easily repairable phones. No need to solder stuff or tear apart a whole phone just to replace a screen for example. At the time, I’d buy them from anywhere between $15-$30/phone depending on damage, swap out parts from unrepairable ones, or buy new(ie Battery replacements) and sell for around double the price. I miss the days where you didn’t need a license and special training to repair these things.
