I'm with the company Verizon and I would like to upgrade to another phone for the gigs. I'm happy with the model I have it's just that it only has 8GB. I'm trying to buy one from eBay because I know it will be cheaper, but I don't want to get scammed. So what should I consider?

  • What should I know before buying a second hand iphone 4? So I've found a good deal for an iphone 4 but the thing I'm worried about obviously is getting scammed.

Can anyone tell me everything I need to know about customs charges, EORI number etc. Who do I provide these details too and how do I pay custom charges? How do I ensure that the products are delivered from China to my doorstep?
