Is it a big scratch?
It's like a round scuffed grey patch (on a white phone), right on the top where I can see it all the time.
That's a bit like when we got a 'new' car in August. We had a Meganne before that that had an unsightly dint on the passenger side and was missing one of the plastic trims. We got Citreon Xsara Picasso and within two weeks the wife had scraped the drivers side's nice metallic paint against a post.
I was not amused.
Wonders why you can't buy self polishing shoes.

That would annoy me... just chuck it away.

I shall try to make friends with the scuff.
I'd get rid of it. It will plague you.

We need to bring shoeshine boys back. "Shine your shoes, sir!"
You might be able to remove the scratch with a mild abrasive (toothpaste?) or some buffing with a cloth.

Yes. More child labour, please.

Put a cute sticker over it.

But I dropped my pretty, shiny, brand new phone, and now it has a scratch.Would be nice to own something for more than a week before I balls it up completely.

Eep. It might well fix it, but I don't think I'm brave enough.
I'll just get used to it. 
I didn't even know he knew you.
