So why not ask before buying?

I will hold my hand up to that I did not ask before buying as I didn't expect that at all I'm new to this.

You should ask ebay what their policy is.

Maybe they will look kindly on you, or maybe you will just have to keep the phone and hope for the best.

Unfortunately this is ebay, so the buyer is always right- even when he obviously isn't.

So once again one poor seller who has done nothing wrong and is just legitimately selling off their unwanted upgrade will now be forced to refund- and get a defect for the privilege.

Bottom line - if you don't want the risk of it being blocked, buy it new.

Any second hand phone you buy, you run the risk of the seller making a fraudulent insurance claim on the phone.
