I have a Samsung S5, very good, its my third, and about my fifth battery, maybe should get one with a more uptodate version of android, but not many have replaceable batteries these days, i think thats important as batteries die after a year or so

Are you comparing new prices with second hand?
This is the price of a BRAND NEW S7.
My S7 replaced my old S5 (I had two, 2 years each). No comparison with the S7: much faster, more memory, better camera, better screen. There is hardly anything in the S8 and S9 that justifies going for them instead. Very little of any significance has been added.
- No replaceable battery for the S7 :-(
- Dual SIM
Its a graded product, probably a return. You need to check what their grade B means. They have grade C for £150.
Done the deed but ordered the S7 Edge for the larger screen size. Also comes with a slightly larger battery.
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.

As said upstream, paid a little extra for the Edge version.
The prices are good all round, though.

Minor damage, no box, no bits, short warranty.

Thanks. I assumed Samsung would drop old models but I checked the pricing and saw the Galaxy S7 is still available.
Why wouldn't Samsung turn over production lines to the newer S8 or S9? Or is this overproduction stock?
Note: Grade B. The ones I pointed you at were brand new (warranty and all).
I suspect the latter.
I think I would rather have the non edge version - since its much easier to damage the screen on the edge ones.
I would expect over production because it is better to have a small percentage left over rather than have frustrated customers.
In the great scheme of things I don't suppose that an extra few hundred thousand left over is a big deal. Sell them at around production cost and you still get brand loyalty and potentially deny a competitor a sale.

There must be a lot of surplus stock because the follow on model S8 was released almost 2 years ago in spring 2017.
