A GUIDE TO DECIDING
When asking about selling a faulty iPhone, explain what happens and which functions still work. A cracked display, an intermittent problem and a phone that will not start require different assessments. At Teveotecno, the possibility of accepting the device and any proposal are considered individually.
Send the model, storage capacity, photographs and a specific fault description before travelling or paying for a repair solely in preparation for a sale.

Report what you can observe without treating a guess as a confirmed diagnosis: whether it charges, starts, restarts or fails to focus. Explain when the problem began and how often it happens. Disclose known impacts, liquid exposure and previous work.
If you have an earlier diagnosis or estimate, provide its date and scope. It does not establish that today's problem has exactly the same cause. Photographs help show cracks and wear, but they cannot replace operational checks.
Before arranging work, distinguish its cost from any possible change in an assessment. There is no universal deduction for a screen, battery or camera fault. Paying for a repair does not guarantee that the eventual selling amount will recover that expense.
A repair assessment and an initial selling valuation answer different questions. Explain your priorities so you can avoid authorising work that does not fit your budget or objective.
If the phone operates, check your backups. If it does not start or you cannot gain access, disclose that first. Do not erase or restore it because you assume this is required for an enquiry. Agree on what can be checked and what happens to your information before work or handover.
Do not share credentials. The account holder must resolve any remaining Apple Account association through official channels. Contact us before visiting Juncal 2525, Recoleta, and read the handover preparation guide if assessment of your case can proceed.
Acceptance cannot be confirmed generally. It depends on the model, condition, fault and assessment. Ask about your particular case before visiting.
Compare the repair estimate with the assessment options. There is no guarantee that the selling amount will recover the repair cost.
Yes, describe that condition in the initial enquiry, but it limits what can be checked. An enquiry does not establish acceptance or a confirmed final value.
Listings describe individual devices. Price, condition and availability can change.
Stock changes; if the configuration you want is missing, ask about alternatives.
