Is it safe to buy and iPhone 5 from Ebay?

Anyway, I want to buy and iPhone 5, but my parents don't want to pay the full price for one, so they suggested that I should buy a used one… Well, I'm honestly fine with that, I don't really care, I just want to be sure that I don't end up wasting money or something… So like is it safe to fx buy one from Ebay.uk when I live in Denmark?

Yeah why not i mean just look at the sellers history and feedback from others.

Yeah, Ebay is safer and you can find better deals than Amazon

I would say amazon is much safer, they are sold by companies not individuals and give you a detailed description and seller rating - go Amazon! For example check out this page: http://www.amazon.co.uk/...009F1ONZ8/ or in white: http://www.amazon.co.uk/...009ETBBJM/

Yes, it's safe to buy from ebay. They provide such a good customer support.

Sure

Yes! You can buy from ebay.in it is safer and provide better deal compare to others.

  • NEED OPINIONS! Is it safe to buy electronics on eBay from CHINA? YES/NO Should I buy an electronic on eBay from China? Is it safe? --- Additional info: I'm looking for a battery case for my iPhone 5, went shopping today and the ones I found were had warranty, came with customer service, you know the safe kind, but a bit pricey. I went home and searched on eBay, and I got results for cases like, $10! Dirt cheap! But I'm a bit worried it might explode. Should I go back to the store for the safe (pricey) one? Or just get one on eBay?
