I sold several Iphones and used Paymate and did not have any issues with them

Thank you for your respond.

Another question I have is when you sale the iphone, is it list under cell phone or electronics category? If under the cell phone, did you get approved before you list your iphone?

Thank you

hpcpqcsco, It's the SERVICE that is on the No-no list.... you can sell the phones :)

Yes the phone was listed in the cell phone category.
