bkkmick Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Hi It will soon be one of my daughters birthday. She asked for an iPhone. I was looking on Lazada to see if there are any cheap options. There's a iPhone 5S 32gb for 9200 baht which sounds great. It says 'refurbished' which I assume means second hand. I'm fine with that but I was wondering if it comes boxed up and looks like a new phone? Thanks Cheapo Dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneyboy Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Yes it should come boxed and with everything you would expect with a new phone such as charger etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eclipse Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) Yes it will look like a brand new phone and work perfectly. I have ordered 3 in the past with no problem. They have usually been sent away for minor problems and cannot be sold as new but they are perfect. http://www.wikihow.com/Identify-a-Refurbished-Iphone Edited May 15, 2016 by Eclipse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinot Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 A few weeks ago the network companies AIS, True etc were selling new ones for less than that (5500?) new. There still maybe new stock around retailers will be blowing out. I've had mixed results with refurbished phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linesy Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) Some of these phones on Lazada do not have any warranty and if you have a problem after 7 days you may end up with a brick. Check the warranty. Edited May 15, 2016 by Linesy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkleton Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) Do you really think, it's a good idea to buy an almost three years old (released Sep. 2013), outdated and overpriced, 2nd hand Smartphone, just because it's an "iPhone"? I hardly doubt, this is what your daughter expects...but I may be wrong. Edited May 15, 2016 by Turkleton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary A Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I have purchased two refurbished phones, both Samsung. I got burned twice. No more refurbished phones for me. Neither came from Lazada so maybe Lazada is OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 There are several I-phone resellers in Fortune Tower, 3rd level who sell reconditioned phones for less than Lazada sells them. At least you would be able to look the phone over for blemishes and try it out. You will probably get a 30 day dealers warranty as well which is better than you get with Lazada. There are also many shops at MBK selling used and reconditioned I-phones but whether valid or not, I trust dealers at Fortune more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
