Tips on buying a second hand phone ?

thehamo · 2023-10-16 15:19:23

I'm in the market for a phone and considering second hand with proof of purchase. Does anybody have any hints, ways to spot fakes etc? I know check IMEI number, but that's easily cloned so wondering are there any other checks that can be done? Cheers
