Buying secondhand is just the smart move when the phone is this capable and the price reflects real-world wear rather than retail optimism.
The honest bit first. The screen has light scratches as well as a few deeper scratches, and the frame shows nicks, light scratches, and some minor discolouration on the casing. These are the reasons the price is where it is, not a reflection of how the phone performs.
Screen: Light scratches visible as well as a few deeper scratches, but the display is otherwise in fairly good condition.
Casing: Nicks around the frame, light scratches, and minor discolouration on the casing, but overall still holding up well.
Battery: Health is at 91%, consistent with normal use for a device of this age.
Functions: Comprehensive testing of system functions confirms everything is in perfect working order.
Overall: A well-used but fully functional Galaxy S23+ that does everything it should.
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.
