Second-hand electronics in Worcester, England typically sells for £8 to £900 (about $11 to $1,200). Being unlocked to any network adds real money against the same handset tied to one carrier. Original packaging, charger and paperwork lift the figure more than their cost, mostly as evidence of how it has been looked after.
Buying electronics in Worcester
Worcester has a cathedral above the Severn, a porcelain works of long standing and gives its name to a sauce made here since the 1830s. The river floods regularly and seriously, which is a genuine consideration when buying anything that has been stored at ground level.
Nothing here can be checked for a lock or a block from a photograph, and a handset barred by its network is worth almost nothing however good it looks. Trying it on the spot, with the seller present, is the only reliable test there is.
What to check in person
Run it for a good ten minutes rather than a moment, because overheating and sudden restarts only appear once it is warm. Try every port with a cable actually in it, and look along the seams for a case that has been opened before.
Collecting it in Worcester
It fits in a bag, so most people meet on the way to something else. A station or a high street works, and neither side needs a car.
The cathedral and the bridge are the landmarks everyone uses. When the river is high the riverside roads and car parks close, so check before arranging anything that needs a vehicle.
