7 mistakes to avoid when selling a used phone
To sell a used phone without losing the sale, price it against the same model, storage, condition and city, show at least five angles and disclose every defect.
The costliest mistakes are pricing without comparables, too few photos, an imprecise model, hidden defects, poor reset preparation, risky deposits and a meetup without a clear protocol.
Step 1
Before the listing
Most problems begin with missing information.
- Do not copy the new price; compare model, storage, condition and city.
- Do not use two dark photos; show at least five angles and every defect.
- Do not write only ‘clean iPhone’; include battery, repairs, accessories and limitations.
Step 2
During messages
A clear conversation filters casual enquiries without creating distrust.
- Do not hide a defect that will be visible at the meetup.
- Do not share codes, passwords or complete personal documents.
- Do not accept a payment or deposit whose real receipt you cannot verify.
Step 3
At the meetup
An organised handover protects both people and speeds up the decision.
- Do not choose an isolated place; allow light, connectivity and testing time.
- Do not erase data without a backup, but remove accounts before final handover.
- Do not finish without verifying payment and preserving what was agreed in chat.

FAQ
Common questions
Should I accept heavy negotiation before meeting?
First define condition and what is included. Serious negotiation is based on verifiable differences.
Can I use manufacturer photos?
Not as the main evidence. Buyers need to see the exact device and its defects.
