You've summed up the situation perfectly!
Come back to this post to let us know :)
I agree, those flip phones do make great kids toys. Old Nokia bricks too, because they're bulletproof obviously
I apologise if I sound a bit naive here, but I'm genuinely interested - how easy are we talking and how is this type of thing done? Is this…
This is such an awesome use, Thanks for your contribution!

Data seems to be a common and indeed valid concern Thanks for your contribution!
This is a fair question too - check out https://phonerehome.wordpress.com/2017/09/24/taronga-zoo-needs-your-old-phones/
I have to say I haven't seen this, but I will look into it further. Thanks!
Do you mind if I ask what you're getting out of keeping all your old phones? I mean, you say you like hoarding, but what specifically about…

I agree. I still remember buying an iPhone 4s outright for pretty close to $1000 and 5 years later believing it was worth more than the…
[@PJC](/comment/5110380/redir): I think these are a few options. 1. If your old phone has next to no value and isn't in the greatest…

What I've found with a lot of people is that they want something in return for recycling the device (like trade-in value towards a new…
You're right about there being not too much of an incentive to do so. MobileMuster will recycle your old phones rather than resell them -…
Absolutely! It's a win-win scenario for everyone.
Do you usually just keep 1 backup phone at a time?
phonerehome posted a forum topic Why Do You or Don't You Recycle Your Old Mobile Phone?
Hi Ozbargainers! Long time fan, first time forum poster! I'm basically curious - we all know the inherent benefits of recycling to the…
