You have a smartphone in your sights, but you can't see it 'to offer ?
So you're thinking about buying second-hand?
It's a very good idea ! Mobiles are often out of budget.
But to avoid being scammed on your next phone, follow these 10 tips before buying it:
1 . Do not respond to an advertisement whose price is too low.
2 . Ask for the origin of the phone and the purchase invoices.
3 . Make an appointment in a public place to check that there are no hidden defects.
4 . Open the case and check the battery and cell status.
5 . Put your SIM card inside and wait for the network to check that the phone is not blocked.
6 . Make a phone call.
7 . Put on some music and check that the 2 headphones are working.
8 . Take photo and video quickly.
9 . Play with the screen and keyboard to check the fluidity.
10 . If everything is ok, pay and go with your new phone.
There you go, you can now buy a used mobile without being cheated :-)
These steps are essential to avoid scams.
And if the seller has nothing to reproach himself with, he will gladly let you check everything!
