Broken w995, is it worth anything?

[Austin-182]

My 15 yr old bro droppes his brand new w995 in a cup of tea and is devastated, although it is funny lol!
Hed just paid 200 for it!
Is this worth anything, are there any places that buy second hand phones?

I had a w900i Best phone i've ever owned bar none.

I'm out. x

Mazuma etc might give something for it.

I'd give him a tenner for it

might sounds like a strange question but does he have sugar in his tea? if not it may be salvagable. still might be with sugar. put it in a bag of rice, it sucks all the moisture out of it. it may work then. make sure the rice covers the whole phone (remove the back and battery when doing this).

Wash it with pure deionised water first, then dry it out with the rice.

You can get the water from halfords, its advertised for car batteries.
