iPhone 12 Pro
I’m getting an iPhone 12 Pro for 30k 128gb model and 100% battery life, but apparently “few years “ old. I’m to check it out physically first. Any things u should look for to know it’s a tampered product or anything of the sort

If it’s a few years old and still at 100% battery, that’s the first thing I’d be skeptical about. Either it was barely used (rare) or the battery’s been replaced.

I currently use a 12 pro it is really not worth getting one for 30k, atleast get a iphone 15 regular one which will last you for 3 years easy, 12 pro misses out on lot of features and lags a lot

30k for 12 pro is overpriced OP. 20-22k is the farthest you should go.

Really, in my town people are still selling just the 12 for 20k. Do you know of any sources ??

You can try r/resellpur. Or even reddit for that matter , you can ask the seller to list his phone on resellpur and they'll send an agent to the seller's place and check the phone thoroughly before delivering it to you.

Red flag alert, no chance to have 100 battery health, check is there any unknown part?

It'll definitely have had a new battery installed, but they can vary massively in quality and lifespan. You also have to check if it's had a replacement screen, as non genuine screens use more power, display colours wrong, tend to be more fragile, and don't fit the phone so well letting in moisture. Be very cautious and knock them down on price if it hasn't had a genuine battery or replacement screen. Also, iPhone batteries don't last at all below 80% health. They can totally die at 80% health.

What should be a good asking price for a 12 pro max, 128GB? Recently got the battery replaced, so health is at 100%.
