Can I get into legal trouble for selling a iPhone that Dosent work?
I'm selling it on cragslist and it can't be activated in the US beacuse it's foreign… And I was tricked so I'm tricking someone else. What are the consequences if any?
Believe me, the most you'll get is an angry letter from the customer.
If you know that the phone can't be activated, and do not make that clear in the description, you could be charged with fraud. What happens then depends on how much you charged for it. If you say "New iPhone, $600, works great", that is a lot more fraudulent than "iPhone, $50". If you mention that it is a foreign phone in the ad, then you have put the customer on notice, and it becomes a case of caveat emptor. For all you know, they need a phone for foreign travels, and won't care.
Way to go.
You get tricked and you want to pay it forward. Lovely.
Yes, you could probably get in trouble. If your ad doesn't mention that little fact - buyer could possibly call police and file some kind of fraud charges.
Or seeing as this is Craigslist - he may have a cousin named Guido - who might pay you a visit.
- Why dosent my iphone 5 charge? My phone charges but it doesn't say that its is charged and hold the charge it has it has been n the charger all day and hasn't gone more than %5. I don't know if its my cord or my phone. I will try another cord but if that doesn't work what should i do?
- Which is better: selling on amazon or selling on ebay? I have an individual seller account and I've noticed that my products sell much faster or ebay. However, I sold two iphones. My final sale fee $1100. However, ebay charged me a final sale fee of $135 Then I was charged $40 by paypal Then I paid $60 total to ship both items. On my amazon account I sold 1 phone. The phone cost $180 Amazon took out $30 Shipping cost $10 So I made $140
- What features does the iPhone 5 has that the iPhone 4 dosent? I know about Siri but other features. And if you could please explain each feature. I'm making sure its worth the upgrade. Please do not convince me to get another brand.
