Buying a Used iPhone

There is nothing more rewarding than finding that amazing deal on a device that costs twice as much new, but works and looks just the same. At Cell Phone Repair Now in Waxhaw, North Carolina, we carry a wide range of Apple Devices for sale.

Although finding that special deal can be invigorating, you need to beware of issues that may arise when searching on-line, or even when buying from a friend. We highly recommend that you come into our store to check out our inventory and avoid these issues.  We stand behind our products.

A common problem you can run into when buying a device from a not so well known source is a "blacklisted device." Blacklisted means that the person who previously owned the phone might owe a payment on the phone service, owes money on a the phone itself, or after they sell the phone to you, they report it lost or stolen to get a new one.  The device you bought becomes "blacklisted".  Blacklisting cannot be removed and the phone cannot be activated to your carrier. The phone can be blacklisted days or even weeks after buying the phone.  You want to be sure to buy only from a trusted source.

iCloud is another issue clients come to us for regularly. The client buys a device and it is on the screen that says "Hello" so it appears to be in new software mode. Once the SIM card is put into the phone and activation begins, the iCloud password is requested.  Without knowing the iCloud password, it is not possible to setup the phone.


Using these two examples of possible issues when buying a phone, we hope you can see the benefits of buying from a trusted source. Cell Phone Repair Now offers a 60 day warranty onall devices we sell.  Don't worry about issues such as iCloud passwords and Blacklist status. We hope to see you in our store soon, and thanks for checking out our blog!
