It also has it in the confirmation email, at least it says the estimated value in mine.
My experience with MM is very much not that. I've had them come back to me with hugely reduced offers on two occasions when I've sent in tech items, for what I would consider pretty quibbling reasons, certainly not reasons that justified the 50% and more reduction in their offers. On both instances I've got them to send it back and sold on eBay for what moreorless what I wanted from MM, so I'm definitely happy to try this new Argos offer this time around.
MM have always been very good on books, games, DVDs etc, I should say.
Case and screen protector are here. Just need the phone now!
I was hoping to find some reviews with some real pictures of the devices as apples are obviously styised for marketing and the colours are often different in the flesh.
Also wondering wether to get the pro now too.

It appears the site is owned / run by 'LIKEWIZE SERVICES UK LIMITED'... googling the name it looks like they rebranded as this from Brightstar and brightstar were / are the trade in service for Apple? I think anway.
I got my pre-order ready on the app and it worked great, is there a way to view it on apple.com? I can't see it on there.
Amazon Prime came through with the ESR Armorite screen protectors.
Have to say the word ‘premium’ springs to mind with both the packaging, unboxing experience and the actual Armorite’s. You get 2 in a pack and they feel high quality. These are not the lightest screen mind, they’re industrial strength for glass!
To me, these are a massive step up in terms of quality from ESR compared to their standard protectors. The black border around them is much thinner than the 12 Pro Max. I predict an easy alignment onto the 13, comes with the usual ESR accessories to help the installation process.
Definitely worth the £13.59 I paid for them.
Let’s hope they now fit my 13 Pro Max with no issues.
Would love to see Jerryrigeverything do a test on these Armorites!!
@johnyslats you’ll like ‘em, worth the wait!
@CD3660 worth the purchase, especially with the Amazon business discount price & extra 15% off.

Sounds like ‘Argos TradeIn’ is Apple in disguise, offering better prices than through their official trade in scheme? Lol
It’s included as one of the options in Macworld’s list on where to trade in.
So a branded Argos site for trade in using third party company. Their who is information isn;t very descriptive.

I found the official Argos customer services twitter account referencing the URL a while back, which is good enough for me: .
What should I do suddenly my faceid doesnt work on my pristine iphone x 256 can I still get £224 that argos is quoting?
...it does, BUT it says, 'Estimated' which means they are not tied in to actually give you what they initially offered (see my earlier post - number #2297).
Has anyone ordered from a carrier (EE in particular!) on pre-release day?
Did you get it delivered on launch day? Guessing collection in store isn't an option!

Hi
This looks a lot darker than it did on the apple website .. I’ve just ordered this and will return the dark cherry which was nice but not quite as purple as I love .. still wish they did the violet that they did a few years ago!
Thanks for the pics. Something to compare against when my imports arrive 😂 Should’ve just waited for Amazon. Will have only saved a couple of quid for my troubles IF they’re genuine!
yes that Argos web domain does look a little odd.. worth checking its all legit before people send off wiped and unlocked phones to them!
is their postage insured for the full value?
be cautious

they are all estimated and give you a final figure when they inspect your phone. that wording is no different to any other site
