Is Selling Refurbished phones a good business?

[Hate2Wait]

Most people require smartphone for their work and for communication and these days we don't see any person that does not use a smartphone so I think selling Refurbished phones is a good business as many people like to buy cheap smartphones.

I saw many like to buy second-hand phones, what is important is, it is still functional and of fashion.

 

[Hate2Wait]

It should be as per the persons requirements as not every person see if its in fashion or not and no one will buy non working phones

Agree, who would buy defective cellular phones, only the insane.

 

[Hate2Wait]

No one will buy the defective mobile and no one will sell it, I think only companies buy these at pennies and find ways to make these workable and sell

very profitable in my opinion. Times are hard so people have opted to spend less. Buying second hand phones costs less and the phones work just fine so most people prefer to buy second hand phones. The main point here is functionality.

I know many that do not like to buy new phones and are always on the lookout to get cheaper phones and this way they save a lot of money and these stores that sell thee also make good profits

I never bought second-hand phones ever. One of my friends used to buy refurbished phones always. It's fine if the phone is working properly. Some people sell their phones as they get bored of them so in the market one can find good secondhand phones.

I also don't prefer it but that does not make it a bad way as there are large number of people that prefer to buy refurbished mobiles as they can get a good quality product at a lower price and many times these are available at half of its price.

I also have seen it on flipcart, they are a good deal. Many people prefer to buy them.

Most websites have started selling Refurbished smartphones and these are with 6 months warranty too and users are sure that these are in good condition

Maybe they make them like a new phone and sell them.

 

[Hate2Wait]

No they cannot sell it like a new phone and always sell it refurbished but I also don't have any experience buying refurbished phones

In my country not so profitable. Most phone when it is older and slower go in garbage. Mostly refurbished phones are Iphones or expensive Samsung phones.

Me too, I will never buy a secondhand cellular phone. My two-year-old cellular phone costs P 21,000 pesos.

I don't rely on second-hand phones. I feel it's better to spend some extra money than to repent afterwards.

i know that it is a good business especially for low income earners but it doesn't work with me I prefer to buy a new phone to be sure of what. buying

 

[Stardom22]

Yes it can be very profitable as it has a ready market

 

[cherry123]

In my country there's a market for it but I don't see the phone lasting like the new ones but you can get them if you are on a budget.

The business is a good and profitable one although I don't like buying second hand phones for may of them are stolen phones, I have seen some instances like where a frend bought his other friend recently stolen phone. But I won't mind selling it since it is profitable.
