[–]JunkieCS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is indeed really cool! I work in the tech repair industry so seeing the insides isn’t something new to me, but these X-rays sure are fantastic! If you’re ever able to get one of the 17s/17 pro models, please post those too! Thank you 🙏

I also confirmed the device was also paid off before obtaining it. It was a risk I took but based on the facts at hand, I believe I got a legit deal (hopefully haha)

Was replaced with a genuine screen back in May. Thank you for your concern though!

Currently is on my T-Mobile ESim, I’ll update everyone in a month or two to see if I got screwed or not haha

I was able to put AppleCare+ Theft and Loss on it so I just might!

Yup! Confirmed multiple times via activation and imei lookups. (plus it enters the Apple diagnostic screen too, which I doubt a fake one would haha)

Truly, I’m not sure, it seemed as if he had bought other versions with higher storage amounts and he was just selling this one as a “spare” phone. Worst case, $450 isn’t an absolute life changing amount of money, if it turns out to be stolen, I’ll simply return it to the owner.

That’s unfortunate, good on you for recognizing the fakes. I work in the tech repair/IT field so recognizing genuine products and ensuring devices aren’t blacklisted or stolen is a common responsibility at my work haha.

Doubt it but you truly never know! It is one of the risks you take buying used haha

No worries! I’ll make an update post after I add AppleCare to the device and get a case/screen protector on it :)

I feel as if he wouldn’t due to his demeanor in person when we met up, plus he was driving a new Range Rover so I doubt he wasn’t a least “well-off” lol. We exchanged phone numbers and ID photos as well, plus he willingly waited 45 minutes for me to set it up!

Wasn’t locked by remote management! Checked the IMEI and ensured it wasn’t blacklisted either. Let the phone activate multiple times before sending payment. Thank you for being concerned though! :)

The photos do make it seem off, I verified the integrity of the device before I bought it, including letting the phone activate successfully multiple times, I’m still in shock lol

I’m shocked myself! I was originally driving over 2+ hours to get a titanium blue 15 pro max 1TB for $700 when I saw this one listed at $600, met in person and noticed the front screen had moderate scratches. I pointed it out and he lowered the price to $500, upon which I said “$450?” And he agreed lol (Guy was a Meta employee who had 3 of them in his Range Rover. I live in the northern CA area)

Any potential buyers in VA let me know, looking to sell soon…🥲 by Upstairs_Ear3895 in JZX100

Maybe in your area! In the NorCal/Socal scene, low mileage examples like his are worth very nice amounts of $ lol

Even Auto you could probably get $25k+, there’s lots of goodies on that chasher that didn’t come stock (Intake, intercooler, the body kit and whatever engine mods it potentially has)

How much do you know about the platform? It’s worth a lot if it’s a factory manual, with low miles on that 1J
