Anyone know where i can get one? eBay has some sellers in China for $40 shipped, but it seems fairly expensive considering most other phones housing are significantly less.

The reason i ask is that I am about to sell my Cingular 2125 and i have a few small dings in the casing here and there, works fine, its just cosmetic. Figure I could sell for a higher price if it didnt have any dings...

You can get one for $50 from Cingular anyway now.... Looks like a new phone coming out to replace it soon too....

Not true - you can only get it from Cingular with a 2-year contract for 49.99. The full price of the phone is still listed at like 299.00 or something like that. They are clearing them out, and all that they have left are refurbed units. The 3125 is coming out within the next two weeks.

I think that 40 dollar casing on eBay is about as cheap as you are going to find. It is probably not worth it. Just be honest in your eBay listing and state that it has some light wear-and-tear on it -- put a reserve price on it of the minimum amount you are willing to sell it for. I would bet it sells anyway, dings and all. Those who are looking for the phone without a contract are still going to bid on it.
