    Not iphone but the android phone I purchased from their warehouse was said to have a non-essential part missing. That part turned out to be the screen protector which was already attached to the phone so nothing was really missing. Pay attention to their condition grades and descriptions.
  • Bought an iPhone and an android phone from Amazon renewed. Both excellent with just slight battery wear. The iPhone health was 88 % but with an £800 saving on the original price I was and still am more than happy. 
    Amazon are really good with returns so you have no worries.

    I bought one last year from Music Magpie for my son and he is thrilled with it. It looked perfect and he's not had any problems

    The person who sold that to MM was probably told it had several defects and so MM reduced their offer for it. 🙄
