Questions about selling a damaged iPhone

How much is a damaged iPhone worth?

Less than a clean one, but often more than people expect, because parts and repairable units still have resale value. Mark the damage in the quote to see the figure for your exact iPhone. Each iPhone estimate draws on this month's resale data for that configuration, and your condition answers refine it before anything is shipped.

Do you buy a broken iPhone that will not turn on?

No. An iPhone has to power on so it can be tested and erased. If it charges but shows nothing, email us the model for a manual review. Cosmetic wear reduces the iPhone price but never disqualifies a working unit, and the quote asks about it so the number holds at testing.

Should I repair my damaged iPhone before selling?

Rarely. A repair often costs more than it adds to the offer. Price it as it is first, then compare with a repair quote. Cosmetic wear reduces the iPhone price but never disqualifies a working unit, and the quote asks about it so the number holds at testing. Should our test bench see something your answers didn't mention, you receive the reason and a revised figure, and you're free to say no and get the device back.

How do I get paid when I sell my damaged iPhone?

Choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) when you accept the offer. After the iPhone arrives and passes testing, payment is sent within 2 business days after your device passes inspection. If testing finds something different, you get a revised offer first and can decline it for a free return.

Is shipping free when I sell a damaged iPhone?

Yes. Every accepted quote gets a free prepaid, trackable shipping label by email. Pack the iPhone with padding on all sides and drop it with the carrier. Accepting the offer triggers an email with a prepaid, tracked label, so the iPhone travels from anywhere in the U.S. without you paying a cent in postage.
