Used Apple Electronics: Prices and Sizing

Used Apple electronics typically sell for $14 to $1,574 (about £10 to £1,170) depending on the item and its condition. Used electronics turn on provable working order and on the accessories that came in the box. A buyer cannot test anything remotely, so the listings that sell are the ones that demonstrate function rather than assert it, and that are specific about which regional model and which charger is included.

Models, regions and compatibility on Apple electronics

Every Apple device is tied to the previous owner’s account until they sign out of it, and a device still linked is unusable to anyone else. Battery health is readable as a percentage in the settings, and the model number identifies the exact variant.

• Phones, tablets and laptops make up most of what sells here and are found by model, storage and battery health
• Audio and wearables turn over more quickly and cheaply, and turn on battery life rather than specification

What to check before you buy

Confirm the device has been signed out and reset before money changes hands. A locked device cannot be unlocked by the buyer, by a repair shop or by the maker, and it is the single commonest dispute on used Apple hardware.

For the checks that apply to any used electronics regardless of the maker, see the guide to buying used electronics.

What you keep when you sell

On a typical $794 Apple item, a marketplace charging 20% takes $159, one charging 13.6% takes $108 and one charging 10% takes $79. WishThrift charges neither side, so you keep the whole $794.

Listing your Apple electronics

• Include the original box and cables if you have them and say so. On electronics they are worth more than sellers expect, because replacements are model-specific
• Factory reset the device and remove every account lock before you photograph it. A locked device is unusable to the buyer and is the commonest reason a sale falls apart

Questions

What is the most important check on a used Apple device?

That the previous owner has signed out of their account and reset it. A device still tied to someone else’s account is permanently unusable to you, and no repair shop or reset can clear it. Ask the seller to show the setup screen before paying.
