The battery started to drain faster in 2018 so I got a new phone before it ever broke, so it needs a new battery. Theres no battery pillow bulging going on, the tiny dent was there before I bought it because my dad wanted to get me a cheaper phone in 2014-2015. The 4th photo is the original dent that got it marked down but when you open the front youll be able to bend it back since the frame is aluminum. Bear in mind, a new battery will cost anywhere from $7 to $29.99, but its extremely easy to replace and a good way to practice repairing electronics for beginners. Theres no cracks or deep scratches just dents in the aluminum frame and scuff marks at the top like youd see on a pair of glasses.

Great if you hate new phones and want to go back to the good ol days. I wish they made phones this small for my tiny hands.

I forgot my password and forgot to set it to 123456 but theres many guides out there on how to reset it and the plus side of that is that it will wipe any data (all personal data has already been removed)

If this doesnt sell I will just end up using it as a practice phone for putting APK files on it for open source apps and music. I should price this at $10 but honestly I am still pretty sentimental about this phone so the $8 is what it takes for me to consider selling this unless its going to someone who wants to modify the files for music or some custom app or for practicing disassembling electronics. This isnt a suitable phone for just a emergency backup phone as it only takes wifi SMS as is and does not have modern apps, you could probably use a raspberry pi circuit board as a better communication device.
