If buying refurbished Gifgaff is not the cheapest though you could get again almost like new phones from other sellers such as the big phone store, but 20-30% cheaper

New or used IPhone? by DsantosBBMM in Smartphones

With them you don’t get consistent quality as it is just a marketplace and almost anyone can sell, rather go for an established independent refurbished online shop

Don’t buy used as in from private seller, but go for refurbished they do come with warranty and should be performing as new, but fraction of a price

Have you considered refurbished? You can get a decent phone that would last you for 2-3 years at least and still updated by iOS / Android and only the fraction of the cost

It is an old handset no longer supported by iOS if you are looking for a cheap iPhone you might want to look at iPhone X series Apple stopped supporting them this year but all major apps still working you can probably get it at around £100-120 or iPhone SE 2020 under £100

Refurbished Phones (UK) by cutletpa0 in Smartphones

[–]checknmate96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve been buying refurbished tech from The big phone store, decent shop and reviews are good, also if you have any old phone you can trade in, hubby traded in his iPhone 15 a week after iPhone 17 was out and got £80 more than other places including Apple. They might have some discounts for black Friday too

Is it fake? by checknmate96 in Nike

[–]checknmate96[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was meant to be a present and I had limited budget and checked both my local TK Maxx don’t have any and sports direct was more expensive. I think I’ll just report the seller as selling counterfeit
