ever want to OWN an analogue motorola dynatac (brick phone?)

Edited on Sun Jun-03-07 12:14 PM by datasuspect

retrobrick sells them for 59 GBP!

plus they have all sorts of old technology cell phones that would make you seem like the king (or queen) of irony.

3. I doubt that I have the original packaging.

I'll go look though. DH is a pack rat. Getting him to throw something out is almost impossible. In fact, he came up with 3 boxes for his last 3 phones.

5. Nope. No packaging. I can't believe DH

actually threw something out.

I wonder what they're worth w/o packaging?

4. Cool...

Do they have any of the 'mobile phones' which were only 'mobile' because they were mounted
in vehicles?
