Oh no! Sorry to hear that.. @Azzin said it was on HotUKDeals yesterday, so I suspect they've sold a boat load of them...

Need some advice folks. The guy I sold my iPhone to has received it this morning but says that there is a scratch on the back. There was absolutely no scratches whatsoever when I packed it up and posted it last night. I cleaned it, front and back and it was absolutely perfect. I packed it in the original iPhone box, then in another box, all padded. He’s not said what he wants me to do (yet) but what do you guys think? He’s already paid me the money so that’s OK but it’s really upset me that he says there’s a scratch on the back.
Did he pay via a reversible option? For example PayPal goods and services, or eBay?
If yes, you'll have to reach an agreement with him as he can just return it for a full refund if he wants.
If no, and you're 100% positive that there were no scratches on it, I would just assume he's lying and ignore him.
Either way no harm in asking for a picture of the supposed scratch.
He's probably trying to scam you by making you refund some of the money. Ask him to return. I normally take pictures of the products before and after so that there is proof that he may be trying to scam you. Did he mention if it was really noticeable?
Anyone out there with experience of Envirofone? My deadline is Monday 28th, and I plan of getting my iPhone to them by then, and I've arranged the bank transfer method. How long does it normally take until the money is in your bank. My iPhone is perfect, so there shouldn't be any issues with testing.
Hey guys
Anyone else have issues with Apple Pay on the Apple Store app? Every time I try to order something it has a big exclamation! mark in red next to the shipping address and won't let me continue no matter what I input!

This guy is a photographer. Does that ring any bells with anyone?
What I mean is, it could just be a pencil mark, or been photoshopped. I know it looks like I'm jumping to conclusions, but I'm on the OP's side here . . . . .
Basic updates are enough for me. When I get the "Out for Delivery" status knowing I am within an hour of the local UPS depot and assuming its a peak time logistically for the drivers. (no doubt there's probably loads of like minded apple "fanboys" patiently waiting our shiny new devices) I assume it will arrive within the next 2-3 hours and if the past 3 years are anything to go by thats usually about right. So all going well I think the UPS guy will knock on my door around 11am
Sorry don't know but your deadline is that same as mine. Are you posting on the Friday or Saturday? or earlier?
Are you suggesting a bit of photoshopping? I was wondering if it could be biro............
I have sold 2 phones with them this year and no hassles. Very smooth transaction. Always received the funds 5 working days after successful testing.
I've checked up on Special Delivery and you need to post either by Friday at 4pm or Saturday by 11am. Either should be fine.
hope it works out for you mate!!
I absolutely despise selling things over the net. Normally try and do a face to face so theres no grey areas.

Quite impossible to scratch like that if it was in the box. I'd say Photoshop, a 2 second job. I normally say, NO RETURNS unless item is not working.
Thanks for that, so you think about a week after testing, supposing they test on say the Tuesday 29th, so money around Tue/Wed 6/7th? I only ask as I'll have a cash flow problem and need to make 'arrangements', but it would be worth it as Apple are offering me over £50 less.
thats why I downloaded it yesterday even though I'm holding off on iOS9 until my 6s+ turns up. All ready to transfer from my laptop / download again for free. Always worth downloading things when they're free, even if you just delete them as it registers your 'purchase' of that app and so you can then get it again later for free
Scratched phone stinks of a scam to me, my money is on it being either pen or a self imposed scratch in order to get a partial refund on the phone
Past 2 phones I sold on eBay were bought by scammers. 1st claimed my 3GS was locked to Voda when it was purchased from Apple sim free. Went to dispute and PayPal sided with the buyer as is the norm. He was supposed to send me my phone back and PayPal froze my funds and put hold on credit card. He sent me a mobile phone brochure to further insult me, but had proof of recorded delivery postage so PayPal decided I had received my phone back. Never saw the phone or money again. 2nd was an LG G3. Buyer said I had rooted it which I hadn't. Once again dispute came flying in but this time I had the sense to tell the guy I would be blocking the IMEI until I rec'd it back. That was enough make him change his mind. Never heard back from him after that. I f I was you I would tell the buyer in the even if the phone coming back you will block the IMEI to protect everyone involved. Also remember buyers have up to 180 days to request a chargeback through PayPal. No retail company in the world give that level of protection. Ridiculous.
don't tell me, they want a reduction in price?
Id offer a refund and take the phone back. don't let them keep it.

Mines the same no idea what's up with it, I only noticed for the first time when I tried to order my 6S and had to order the old way.
The world is really full of awful people.
Thankfully the eBay feedback system allows you to reduce the risk of things like this. Unless a buyer has a gleaming feedback profile I'll never go through with the sale.
To those who have issues with Apple Pay.
When I was trying to pre order the phone I kept getting an exclamation mark on shipping address. However I have just tried Apple Pay to buy a 6s plus silicon case and it worked fine.
