Hello,

What does it mean when selling an iPhone "for parts"? Someone is selling an iPhone on leboncoin and I don't know what that means. I sent them a text message to the number displayed but they haven't replied..

Thanks in advance for your answers!!

Configuration: iPhone / Chrome 52.0.2743.98

Hello

"For parts" in an ad usually means that the item does not work, but that spare parts can be recovered...

See you later

Hello,

“For parts” means in my opinion that the smartphone is in bad condition and that the owner is selling it to possibly recover parts that might work after all.. But for an iPhone, unless you're a professional, I don't see what can be salvaged.

Best regards

No problem!

And as keviiin_38 says, I wonder what can be salvaged (unless you’re a pro, and even then....)

See you, have a good evening as well.
