Figured this is a good of thread as any to post this in, if not I can create a new thread.

My mom recently had a problem with her 32gb iPhone 3Gs and in a knee jerk reaction ordered a 4s through Bell. Today the problem fixed itself, and she can't cancel the 4s order, so needs to wait for it to come and send it back, so is considering other options, including keeping the new phone and selling the old one. Is $200 a decent price to expect to get for a 3Gs (about a year and a half old) or is the expectation that the market for them drop out even lower?

The other option, of course, is selling the 4s which is locked to Bell. Is it reasonable to expect to sell it for full price or does the fact that is is locked to Bell reduce its value too much?
