I have an original 8 gig iPhone (actually will have 2 soon), with a slightly cracked screen. Everything still works perfect, the crack (on the lower right corner) has no effect on it. Is there a demand for a cracked screen phone?

What about my current one (in great shape) will there be a demand for it after I upgrade to the 3G-S?

What kind of prices are they going for?

Who would want an iPhone with a cracked screen?

I'll bet that's in as much demand as used socks.

People may buy them for parts, but since the screen is the most fragile and sought after part of the phones might have a hard time selling them.

You can sell it on eBay. Decent prices for broken iPhones.

Yeah seriously. A parts only iPhone was going for over $300 a couple of weeks ago. I could only shake my head. Doesn't cost much to try at least.

I'm not looking to make a killing on it... I've just seen ones in good shape going for $175... I'm going to sell my current on once I upgrade to the 3G-S, I was hoping to make a little off my EX's old cracked screen one. If it would have been mine I would have keep using it, it really was not that bad... Oh well, she will have to wait to get the newest one until her contract is up now...

I did a quick search on ebay, but did not really find any with crack screens... I guess I did not look hard enough...
