Buying an Iphone from craigslits... bad idea? what should i look for

[Hrcules]

I saw an add for an iphone 7 64g for 210 dlls, now i know thats cheap as fukk, and the email looks kinda shady and not sure if i should e mail him/her with my real email.

I got the 6s and i can probably sell it for 300 and get the 7 one and still keep some cash

The idea of buying a used phone

If you are gone do it always check the IMEI before you buy off somebody. Phone could be blacklisted. Bring a SIM card with you to pop it in and make sure the phone can be activated. Be careful with copping stuff off Craigslist. Especially iPhones.

Have them meet you at an apple store or At&t/Verizon and they can verify the phone is legit

If they arent willing to meet there issa scam

an iphone 7 for 200 bucks is probably black listed.

I wouldn't do it unless you can verify the IMEI isn't black listed

your better off going to some type of phone exchange store where they only accept trade ins if the phone is paid off and the imei is clean, some of them give you a warranty and a free case from my experience.

[Responsible Allen Iverson]

Ask them if they will throw in a free mattress to sweeten the deal

I heard brehs say do the transaction at a Apple Store or carrier service store. tbh i rarely here of someone screwing someone like that, but at the same time u don't want to be one of unlucky ones
