hi

i love my small size of my iphone SE but i think upgrading too a iphone 8 4.7 s size is going too be even better and it will last me a little more i was looking at the iphone 7 pluse and 8 pluse but i find them a little big and wide i find the iphone 8 too be the right size and well buy it off apple web site only


am done buying from swappa and ebay with iphones for good i this find it a big red flag right now
 
Have you had issues with Swappa in the past? If not, there's nothing to worry about buying (and selling) from Swappa. Swappa requires all phones to have a clean IMEI and be ready for activation if they're sold on the main marketplace. Also, since you're buying a used phone, you'll pay slightly less than new! I've bought and sold on Swappa for the past three years and it's been nothing short of a fantastic experience each time. But hey, if you've got the funds there's nothing stopping you from buying a brand new phone from Apple!

I’m struggling to understand exactly what You’re asking specifically, however; my interpretation is you have to check with Verizon to ensure the device is *fully* paid off, also in which you can ask about the prepaid account question as well.

He has never used Swappa. So he can't say Swappa is bad. I've used it for 4 years and over 30 transactions with no issues. He had bad experience with Ebay because he wasn't careful, so now he blames all sites? Swappa is the place to sell or buy used stuff. Or Local. He even said he doesn't trust Best Buy.

Here is an 8 new on Swappa. But I'd go to Best buy and get it new.

Why post a thread saying you are going to buy a phone from Apple, if that isn't really the case? You have changed your mind three different times in the thread.

We kindly warned you to stay away from eBay and it appears you made another purchase for the Apple Watch.

You ask for help and then do the complete opposite. If you keep that up, people will stop responding to your posts for help etc.

A moth to the flame.

Swappa has watches, iPads, Macbooks as well. You don't need to use ebay.
