Phones: buy new and used smartphones from owners

Battery health (85%+ for iPhone), the IMEI via *#06# against a check service, Face ID/Touch ID, cameras, speakers and the charging port. Meet in person and test the phone before handing over money.

Match the IMEI on the box, in settings and on the receipt — all three must agree. Ask the seller to sign out of iCloud/Google in front of you: a phone locked to someone else's account is a brick.

2–3 months after a new model launches, the previous one drops 15–25%. A two-year-old used flagship often beats a new budget phone at the same price.

Roughly: iPhone 11 from 7–9 thousand hryvnias, iPhone 12–13 — 11–17 thousand, iPhone 14–15 — from 20 thousand and up depending on storage and battery health. Live listings in your city give the real picture — prices update daily.

The minimum is the phone and a cable. The box with matching IMEI, a receipt and the original charger add 5–10% to the price and sharply raise trust: they're indirect proof the phone isn't stolen or grey-market.

Neverlock means no carrier lock — any SIM works. Refurbished means officially restored by the maker, usually with a new battery and warranty. Only avoid carrier-locked imports without an unlock — in Ukraine they work only with workarounds.
