Are your iPhones original and authentic?
Yes — every device is 100% genuine Apple. We verify authenticity as part of our 90-point inspection process before any phone is listed for sale.
Are the phones blacklisted or stolen?
No. Every device is checked against the IMEI database before listing. If it's blacklisted or flagged, it never reaches our store — simple as that.
Have the phones been repaired?
We disclose everything. If a device has had a screen or battery replacement, that's noted in the listing. We check for 'unknown parts' warnings on every device — if anything flags, it doesn't pass our inspection.
What battery health can I expect?
Battery health is checked and disclosed on every device before listing — no guessing. Excellent condition: 95–100%. Good condition: 85% or above.
Why should I buy from Vanguard Electronics?
Because we show our work. Every phone is inspected across 90 points, IMEI verified, and backed by a 6-month warranty and 7-day returns. Battery health is checked and disclosed upfront — before you pay. We don't just say pre-owned is safe. We prove it.
