I've always used envirofone.com (http://www.envirofone.com/) in the past. Sometimes you can get more by selling privately, but quite often it's just not something I can be bothered to do. They provide freepost labels and have always sent a cheque pretty quickly. :thumb:

I know it's more effort to sell then on eBay, but it would gall me to let them go at their prices, considering they probably sell them on for at least double what they pay you.

It definitely depends on the phone, Simon. If it's something "new", I'd eBay it, but if it's a good few years old, it's just not worth it.

I'm up to £49 with them, and I've yet to dig out the last couple. :)
