If my iPhone's warranty is over will they still replace my phone?

Maybe Boston is a different beast. There are repair shops advertising all of the time. If you care to look, it's just a CL search away.

Of course they wrongly advertise commercial services impersonatinf individuals and basically pollute listings. But they don't buy there.

I tried to sell many parts and a few computers for parts. Never got a single reply.

As with eBay, it's far too easy for a bidder to retract without serious consequence.

U have 90 days from last time it was replaced or when warranty expires. Whichever is longer.

So if Op "only had it 3 months". He better find the genius replacement receipt showing the exact date it was replaced

Sorry, but you are wrong in this assertion. These shops will put up their phone number and physical location as well. Seriously, if you care to look it up, please do (Again, Boston CL, personal experience, it's plenty real). If you don't care to, that is completely fine by me, but your statement isn't any truer.

I am not sure what the point of your comment about eBay is. I was merely saying repairers buy broken phones. Regardless of whether you feel it's a good venue to buy/sell, thousands of phones sell there every day.

And let's not forget the fact that I DID sell my malfunctioning phone (you asked me how). I responded truthfully, and that is how we got started with this silly back and forth.

I don't live in Boston, and here, you just get a phone number, usually a cellphone. Only when actually answering what you think is a legitimate individual seller you'll be redirected to an actual shop.

It's not because eBay sells thousands of phones a day it's a good place for an individual seller to expect a quick sale, an honest price, or just set it and forget it kind of sale. Constantly you have to cancel bids from suspicious buyers and answer silly questions already detailed in the description. At least it happened to each and every moderately valuable item I sold there. Plus, let's not forget the often non-functioning shipping calculator. I do take great time to manually calculate a fee since eBay wouldn't do it for mysterious reasons. Now I would probably make a flat fee for different world regions, but that can kill sales also.
