Buying secondhand is the smart play, and this iPhone 13 Mini gives you a lot of phone for the price, once you know what you are getting into.
The honest bit first. One of the rear camera lenses has a crack in it. The lister notes it does not affect picture quality, but the crack is physically there and you should know that upfront. There is also a service message on the screen and battery, which typically appears when a non-Apple service centre has replaced a part. The casing has a few nicks around the frame, a scuff on the top right corner, and some faint markings, so it is not pristine, but it is well within what you would expect from a used phone at this price.
Screen: Almost no signs of previous use. There is a service message present, consistent with a screen that has been serviced or replaced outside of Apple. Functionally it works as it should.
Casing: A few nicks around the frame and a scuff on the top right corner are visible, along with some faint markings on the body. Nothing structural, just honest wear.
Battery: Health is reported at 100%, though a service message is present indicating the battery has likely been replaced outside of Apple. Practically, you should get strong all-day battery life.
Functions: Comprehensively tested and confirmed in full working order. The cracked camera lens does not affect photo output according to the lister.
Warranty: Covered for 12 full months against faults, not accidental damage. If it stops working as it should, we sort it out.
In the box: Generic charging cable. Original box not included.

There is only one, and it might be in someone else's cart right now. A cart does not hold it, checking out does. The first person to check out claims it, and we then hold it just for them for 2 hours to pay. Settle within that window and it is yours. Let it lapse and it goes back up for whoever is next in line. Pay before 13:00 on a weekday (not Friday) and it is packed and dispatched the same day.
Door to door, anywhere in South Africa. Every device is local stock, sent via The Courier Guy with a tracking number the moment it leaves us. No imports, no customs queue, no waiting weeks for a parcel from overseas.
The price you see is the price you pay. Because it ships from right here, there are no surprise VAT bills or import duties landing after checkout, the kind that catch people out when they buy refurbished from abroad. What you pay is the whole story.
