Is $100 for a 1-year used SE K800i a good deal?

Hey -- quick question everyone, I just want to know if this is a worthwhile investment. My friend recently upgraded to one of those Samsung Instinct phones, and is now willing to sell me his 1-year old used K800i for $100.

Do you guys think this is a worthwhile investment? Is it a good deal? Does that phone have a short lifespan or any long-term problems I should know about?

Thanks guys.

Firstly the phone is not known for any common problems (although the keypad has been critisised as being too small) and the phone is well made and can take quite a beating. IF instead you mean lifespan as in battery life, it all depends on how you use the phone. Keeping it in flight mode solely for media usage will bring you about a week or so, and keeping it in phone mode will give you 2-3 days (based on my usage).

As for the price tag, I wouldn't say that's too good to be honest, as here in the UK, you can buy a K800i new for £65 (probably equivilant to about $120), so I suppose $100 would be ok, but you wouldn't be far off being able to afford a new one, so I'd suggest getting it new if you can find it at that price.

The K800i is a really good phone though and it has a lot of features to enjoy. I hope this helps
