Three steps. That's it.

01

Pick your phone

Filter by brand first, then pick the model — iPhone 15, Galaxy S25, Z Fold, whatever you're after. Each listing states the storage, the colour and the condition grade, so there are no surprises on delivery.

02

Pay your way

Pay by rand transfer into our Nedbank collection account, memo XTFC00105197ZAR — RTC, RTGS, Instant EFT and manual EFT all work. No card fee, no surcharge: the price you see is the price you pay. The account takes rand only, so a foreign-currency transfer is returned by the bank. Questions before you pay? Message us on WhatsApp — the chat is for advice and proof of payment, the money always moves by EFT.

03

Unbox in about three weeks

We dispatch 3–5 working days after payment clears, then Aramex moves it in about 15 days — tracked the whole way. Unbox it, check the handset matches the grade on your invoice, and keep that invoice — that's your warranty reference.

30-point check

Screen, cameras, speakers, charging, sensors, buttons — all tested and logged before listing.

IMEI verification

Every device is checked against blacklists so it can't be reported stolen and locked on you.

6-month warranty

Covers hardware faults, battery below 80% and workmanship. Repairs or replacement, your call.

Data wiped to POPIA

Previous owner's data is securely erased and certified before the device reaches you.

Buying a pre-owned phone in South Africa, without the gamble

A new iPhone 17 Pro Max costs around R30,699 at retail. The same phone, a generation or two older and in Grade A condition, does the same job for a fraction of that — which is the whole reason the second-hand market in South Africa is as big as it is. The gamble is what you don't know: whether the IMEI is clean, whether the screen has been swapped, whether the battery has been through three owners.

We close that gap three ways. Every handset is checked against the blacklist before it is listed, so it cannot be reported stolen and locked while you own it. Every unit goes through a 30-point bench test — screen, cameras, speakers, charging, sensors, buttons — and anything that fails is repaired or not listed at all. And every phone carries a 6-month warranty that covers hardware faults.

What "Grade A" actually means here

Grade A means 90% new — slightly used and in good condition. We choose Grade A because it keeps the price low while the condition stays good. If you'd like Grade A+ instead, message us on WhatsApp: it's US$70 (about R1,170) more per phone.

How payment and delivery work

Pay by bank transfer into our Nedbank collection account. Nothing is charged until you confirm at checkout, and every order gets an order number to quote. We dispatch 3–5 working days after payment clears, then Aramex carries it for about 15 days with tracking; the number appears in My orders the moment the parcel leaves us. Full delivery and warranty answers are in the FAQ.
