I've been looking around for a c510 and i've found a refurbished one on ebay for 139.99 good deal or not? Also how can i tell if its the tri band or quad band version?

Uh? No way! That's the price of a E71 or a new Elm.

Btw, if you want to take photos, really, forget the C510. There are many other better options on ebay, for the same price.

@matts
Is camera the main feature you want? Sony ericsson Elm is a good phone with a good camera but with no Xenen flash,

Yeah the camera is a pretty big part im looking at. Some other features would be nice like threaded messaging but other than that nothing else really matters to me. I have a W580i right now and im hooked on the easy menus and all that so i would like to stay with Sony Ericsson.

Ill share my experience of buying I new phone last year. The w580 was my last phone. When it got lost I needed a new mobile and this time round I wanted one with a good camera, I had seen photos from k800 and was impressed with the quality... I even bought one for £3 from a friend. That phone died after a few weeks of use so I spent the next few weeks reading about SE camera phones and discovered the c901 was the best camera phone from the c and k range. Long story short it took me three months to buy the phone its so difficult to get. The camera is good but couldnt replace any compact. Build quality not so good,
I would say elm is a better choice than those from the c range.

I would recommend you a C901 instead. For $5 more you find it on ebay.

Agree strongly here, hardware&firmware is definitely more advanced. Matts, if you can get an Elm within or close to your price limit get it. Also steer well away from secondhand phones unless it's given to you as a gift or virtually free.

How about SE C905? Since you are particular with quality of camera then this one is probably what you need plus it's reasonably priced too.
