Would you trust eBay or Vinted more buying something expensive like a secondhand phone?

Assuming sellers on both had 100% feedback?
Phone cost is approx £250.

Neither

No, I would buy a refurbished one from eg Music Magpie, Back Market or Envirofone. They do refunds and one-year warranty.

Nope

Dragonsandcats · 11/03/2025 18:34

I came on to say neither.

Got a refurbished one from Giff Gaff - would do again. Won't buy phone off Ebay or Vinted

I've bought four phones from Backmarket and they have all been fantastic.

Neither, Backmarket or similar.

Definitely not Vinted but eBay if you pay by pay Pal as they will refund you if there's an issue.

Neither.
