Hi,
Speaking strictly for my experience and device. You got it that's exactly how I shipped my phone to them minus accessories as they specifically didn't want them and yes I did have such a video and documentation from a manager of an Apple Store verifying that it'd passed their tests. again I could only speak for my experience a few years back as I haven't dealt with them since as my phone now goes back to my carrier.
Robin

Hi Robin,

"New condition" basically means in the original box with all accessories (unused headphones/earpods) and not a single scratch on it. This is pretty difficult with any used iPhone. As for Cathy, I would wait to see what they say and if they insist the phone is not working I would ask them to send it back so you can check yourself. If it is truely not working there is of course a chance something happened to it during transport, but then you would only have a chance if it was insured and you can proof it. I guess this goes to show one should maybe do a little video before shipping off such devices showing the phone works and show the screen with the phone's serial number and so on and also have a credible witness there in the video, then show when you turn the phone off, place it in the box and tape it up.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hi,
I used them years ago and got a message that they listed my phone as in good condition rather than like new. I wrote back saying I had documentation to prove other wise but also checked the box to accept their lower amount as it was either that or they sent phone back for choices and I got the original estimate they quoted me. Now that I'm on the trade up plan from my carrier I've not the need to deal with them anymore.
If you don't like their offer you can always get your device back.
Robin

They said they were prepared to offer me $110 +5% for Amazon gift card option from my iPhone 5s. When I excepted the offer they sent me a nice box, in which I sent the phone, after removing from find my iPhone. Since using voice over, felt uncomfortable completely erasing the phone because of how I wouldn't know for sure when I had powered it off.

Yesterday they sent me an email saying that the device was broken, wouldn't power on, and offering me $20, which I can except or reject by October 5. The device was working when I shut it down. I am sure that the screen curtain was off. I didn't think about adjusting the brightness, which I had at zero. I did an online chat with them, where I explained these things, and they said they would put it through reinspection and get back to me next week. Interesting how on their website they don't have a phone number, but I found one on Google, which I will have to see if it works. So, just wondered if any of you had experiences with gazelle? Had gotten a Nother phone from AT&T, which was prepared to offer 65, so I had tried gazelle thinking I would do better.😔
