Buyer: Why are you selling this phone?
Seller: I changed carriers so I have to get a new phone from my new phone company.
Buyer: How long have you had this phone?
Seller: I have had this phone since this version came out and have used it for the past couple years. I have always kept it in a hard case with a protective glass cover so it has no deep scratches or a broken/shattered glass.
Buyer: Does this have a slot for a sd card?
Seller: No, it does not. but it does have great memory available.
Buyer: Seeing as this is a older Iphone would you take $70 cash?
