Ebuyer are selling the Google LG Nexus 5X as a weekend deal for £209.99, in White and the 16GB version... When you go to Google's website, they are still selling the phone for £299!
Im sure other people will not be happy, it is not available in the other colours or the 32GB version, but still seems a good deal.
There are other phones with a similar spec probably available for less, but I am a fan of the Nexus series of phones, as you get continuous software updates for 2-3 years and come to these phones very quickly after release. Also you don't get bloatware and just the barebones Android operating system which is now brilliant to use and so quick.
Also just to confirm, Ebuyer confirms all phones they sell are SIM Free. http://www.ebuyer.com/store/Computer/cat/Smartphones,-Mobiles-&-Mobile-Broadband/subcat/Android-Phones

LG Nexus 5X 16GB Phone - Quartz White Product Description
Hitting the sweet spot
Capturing the soul of the Nexus family, Nexus 5X offers top-line performance in a compact, lightweight device that's ready to take on the day with you.
Epic photos made easy
Capture your world in brilliant detail with a powerful camera and larger 1.55 µm pixels that catch more light, day or night.

Power and performance
Under the 5.2-inch display is a Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 808 processor and a 2,700 mAh battery, so videos, apps and games look great and run quickly, all day long. If you find you're running low, charging is quick with the USB Type-C plug. It's reversible, so there's no more guessing which way is up.
A camera that captures more light
Larger 1.55 µm pixels absorb more light in even the dimmest conditions to make your photos sharp and vibrant. Plus, the Google Camera app is so quick and easy to use, you'll never miss a moment.
Security at your fingertip
Your Nexus 5X is quicker to access and more secure with a fingerprint sensor placed on the back to complement the way you naturally hold your phone. Unlock your phone and compatible apps with just one touch.

If you look at recent deals you been able to pick up 32gb version for around £30-50 more, personally I would wait out for one of those deals 16gb doesn't go far these days especially when these phones have no SD card slots. Not a terrible deal but can get so much better like this one http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lg-nexus-5x-32-gb-black-259-fulfilled-amazon-2428605 posted a few days ago.

Hot - can't deny it's a great price for that model, I went for the 32gb when upgrading my 16gb Nexus 5, as said 16gb doesn't go far especially if you keep your music on there, take photos & videos, offline streamed music & download the odd catchup programme..
I cloud/ftp most things, photos, videos etc so 16gb is good for me.

good luck with that when you're abroad or basically anywhere without decent internet connection.

it's garbage, sold mine and went back to the one plus one. noticeably slow when loading apps. only good thing is the fingerprint sensor which is excellent

Great phone but the battery life let's it down. I can't get anywhere near a full day out of it which is really disappointing.

Even though I posted this deal and still think it is a good price...
I'd recommend the Motorola Nexus 6 over this any day (If you can live with a 6 inch display.), absolutely love it!
You can pick them up on eBay for around £150ish, just a shame there no fingerprint sensor, which I have got use to, on my work phone.
