Can I get a refurbished iPhone 6 thru Apple? Do I have to goto the store. I want to save a little bit of money to get one for my wife, but can't find the availability on apple.com
 
I don't think Apple sells any refurb iPhones on apple.com, you could probably look for one on swappa.com
 
I saw some on walmart.com, but I was wanting an apple refurbished one, just trust it more.
 
ok, I know they sell a lot of refurbished items, didn't realize they didn't sell refurbished iPhone's.

It appears that Apple refurbish go to replacement for their iPhone 6/6+ warranties.

When they have accumulated a lot of them; they will sell it on eBay just before the new models are release maybe two months - June/August!

Has the same warranty as new! Price is only slightly reduce however!

We don't carry refurbished iPhones. Sorry and yes, I am an employee.
 
There will be lots of refurbs 6 and 6+. Lots of people exhanged them when they first came out because they couldn't decide which they liked. But most are almost new.
 
I got a refurbed iphone 4s and it was perfect in every way. You can still buy refurbed thru a carrier then when you go thru the plan there's certain options you choose if you just want a phone. I almost bought a refurbed 6 last month but couldn't justify spending $700. (I need a 64 since there's no 32 anymore and 16 is not big enough for me).

You can also try Facebook (yes facebook). There are thousands of buy/sell groups. just start joining them and searching for "iphone 6" I bought my son's iphone 4s from someone on fb. Couldn't be happier and at least I knew the person's name and what he was about, not like craigslist where you could be dealing w/ an ax murderer. lol.
