So, because they have a few UK feedback, you've jumped to the conclusion that people are selling them on ebay? Interesting logic!

Your mind sounds made up. Let us know how it goes.

I’ve looked at feedback from sellers selling these phones and their feedback is very good and seems to be a lot of money to be made in this.

As always appreciate all your replies.
Tread lightly, mate. There are LEGIT businesses on Ali. But older tech can be manipulated to appear "refurbished". Remember, these guys have the same parts to correct the original design. It all gets "technical" on if it is OEM part or the same part just generic. When you get involved with the big boys on refurbished phones it could get murky and kill your account or make a decent profit. Weigh the risk. Good luck.

Just like those Chinese factories which made designer handbags for this designer not the other.
But the knowhow,the material make it possible for them to churn out counterfeit designer handbags ,like the one which makes Louis Vitton can make ⊗⊗⊗⊗ Prada,the leather looks good,the design looks real and the workmanship is good

Been selling used apple laptops, computers and phones for years now. No issues.
Send everything tracked. Write things like that you keep a log of serial numbers in your listing

I won't tell you how I source because that's how I maximise my profits.

Give it a go it's the most popular brand on the planet.

see I told you some Ebay sellers have a niche,they know where to find things to resell.
I recently went to WISH.COM and find someone selling refurbished iphone 4 ,claiming it is refurbished in HK,$98?
his feedback on Wish is perfect.
Then I look on Ebay and found a few iphone 4 listed for $98.

There are other APPL products which are less controversial,I bought 3 ipods,one from APPL and 2 from Ebay.
One is brand new but meant to be sold in GERMANY,one is used with a cracked screen.
They both work fine.but the cracked screen one 's battery leaks.

I’m not buying any refurbished iPhones for now just because profit is small per phone yes I can sell a lot but still staying under 85k at the moment.

I have found another product which I have just brought hopefully I can receive them quickly.
