For someone who wants to buy these phones, they are a few questions that you have to ask the seller before you go ahead to buy from them and they might include;

First of all, it is important to ask the seller about the present physical condition of the phone, you can do this by asking him/her to send you pictures or better still video describing these conditions. In asking for the physical condition of the phone, here are the notable conditions that you have to ask about; Battery condition, charging port condition, camera quality, etc.

Pre-owned condition:

Buying a used phone can be quite risky, so to be on a safer side, you have to ask the seller of the phone the pre-owned condition of the phone i.e. you need to know how him/her got to be in the possession of the phone so that you won’t end up buying a stolen phone in the name of buying a cheap phone. And again, if the owner permits, it is advisable for you to check out the IMEI status of the phone so that you won’t also end up buying a fake phone. In case, you don’t know how to check this IMEI status, this is easy to do it; the IMEI tool that you will be making use of is the Imei.info, all you need to do is get the phone IMEI identification number by dialing *#06#, copy it out and go straight to the website Imei.info, input the numbers and click on check and wait for a minute for it to display all you need to know about the phone in question.
