Before ordering this one I had ordered another but I don't know how it got cancelled. The delivery with GSL was also a bit complicated but in the end we received it.

Mobile phone received on time. Aesthetically as good as new, just received, so we'll have to see how the phone works over time. Lucky to have stumbled across a good deal, otherwise prices are high for refurbished products. Delivery: RAS Excellent customer relations. Site to recommend.

Do the job, I was expecting it not to be great visually, but on the other hand, I was hoping that the battery would be a bit more powerful, even for a 'small' price.

I'm not sure if it's a good one or not, but I'm not sure if it's a good one, so I'm not sure if it's a good one or not. I've got a new sim card yesterday and it's working fine, have a good Easter weekend.
