Getting the most for your iPhone 13 mini
- Compare before you post. The same 128GB iPhone 13 mini is worth £80 at one store and £127 at another.
- Grade it honestly. Every store inspects the device; if it is worse than described you get a lower revised offer.
- Turn off Find My first. An Activation-Locked iPhone is rejected or returned. Our preparation checklist covers every step.
- Check if it is unlocked. Settings → General → About → Carrier Lock should read “No SIM restrictions”. Why it matters.

Can I sell or recycle a broken iPhone 13 mini?
Yes. The best published price for a faulty or cracked iPhone 13 mini is £56 (128GB, Back Market). Faulty prices assume the worst case the store lists — if less is wrong with yours, the store may pay more.
Can I sell a brand-new or sealed iPhone 13 mini?

Does a network-locked iPhone 13 mini get less?
