true though one I've sold I've took loads of pictures/vids of the phone and will be sent signed and insured

edit : what id assume most who send it to MM via royal mail do
Me too. However I once sold an expensive camera and the buyer claimed it arrived without the lens (lens was worth £700). Had pictures of me packing it up etc.

They still sided with the buyer. Haven't sold on there since.

There’s nothing wrong with the black borders of the ESR Armorite SP in my opinion. I didn’t like the EZ fit Spigen one as you can see the edge too noticeably whereas the ESR is more discreet because of the black border. Just in case anyone’s been scared off!
Open the camera app and look at the corners at these and see if they are partially covered by the edges of the screen protector.

out of interest can you remember what was the buyers rep was ?

I try to add in description only for such and such feedback etc but obviously you never know who bidding

Last time I used eBay for my XS Max I got a good price and the buyer was fine, but of course you have to pay fees, plus the nagging doubt that the buyer may be a scammer.
It's all about convenience I suppose.
yeah the fees are the draw back !

I've made 95 more than MM kiosk was offering after fees took so cant complain

Yeah it was 100% - I remember checking and noticed it was all from purchases though, no feedback from actually selling anything himself.

Was about 5 years ago now but put me off for life. Was tempted to drive up there was only about 2 hours each way but wouldn't really resolve anything except me wanting to smash his face in.

I've sold/bought a fair bit tbh - try to take precautions ... but always some doubt !

Question for those that have used MM for trade in. They have received the iPhone 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max I sent them this morning.

The site updated to show them as received but their status showing as awaiting.

The 14 changed to accepted earlier and the 13 just now.

Does that mean they’ve been checked and the value is being honoured?

It’s been a while since I sent them via post. So can’t remember.

I sent my iPad Pro 11" earlier on in the year and want to say when it says 'accepted' you'll receive the amount(s) originally quoted.

It was only July so you'd think I'd remember but hopefully someone who's used them more recently can attest.

Thanks might try them. There’s a few marks on the side fairly subtle though, it’s a pity as it’s been in the apple clear case all year must be dust or sand

UR aren't accepting iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max at the moment. I hope you can get a more reasonable trade in price than the one the kiosk quoted.

I'm now looking at new airpod pros (1 from 2) and SE watch to ultra (maybe series 9)

Everyone's different but I like my Series 9 - upgraded from Series 7 and I feel it'll do me good for a couple of years (unless I upgrade to the Ultra 3 next September).

The AirPods Pro 2 also feel a lot better than AirPods Pro 1 - again, everyone is different but they sound better IMHO and I feel the ANC is better on these models.

was in curry's today and the pro max doesn't look that big (went from 12 mini to 13 pro)
maybe I'm just getting used to bigger handsets now !
I think that's is
One you have had a Pro Max, it's difficult to go back to the normal Pro!

I used to have the Pro Max..it's annoying because I have spent money on a 15 Pro screen Torras screen protector and a Mous case which I cannot return since I have opened them/used them so I will be losing money if I decide to go for the Pro Max.:mad:

I'm planning on swapping my pro max blue to natural and bought a torras blue case so i feel your pain.

MM offered me £550 via the kiosk for my utterly immaculate 256 gb 14 Pro. And when I say immaculate it really doesn’t have a mark anywhere. I’ll be selling elsewhere. My experience was:

Lock in quote of £720. Try to complete sale only to not be offered the smart kiosk option, despite living round the corner from an Asda. Customer services were utterly useless and refused to add the kiosk as an option and couldn’t explain why it wasn’t offered.

Set up a separate quote at £650 using a different email address. Smart kiosk offered but price then reduced to £550.

EBay it is.

But at least you can use the case again!
If I swap to the 15 Pro Max, the 15 Pro Screen Protector and Case I bought are no use to me, and both were expensive as well/

Having initially not been able to read the IMEI number, MM kiosk downgraded my phone condition of excellent to poor, it’s been in a case and barely a mark on it a few little spots on the SS sides and that’s it. Probably better condition than the one I sold last year which sailed through.
Did you wipe the glass inside the machine? They downgraded mine first time but after I wiped the machine properly it was evaluated as excellen.

Hi everyone, do you guys know if restocks are supposed to happen in the next few days in the different Apple stores of London? I don't want to order online with a shipping date set for October end. From previous years (iPhone 12, iPhone X), I could just go to an Apple Store the next few days and get a device..
