Useful read

Offer ladder

Start: $590
Fair offer: $630
Max: $670

Why this offer makes sense

Opening near $590 gives room to settle around $630, which is fair for a 256GB 14 Pro at 89% battery. Above $670 is firm territory; $740 is a reasonable walk-away.

Verification Plan

4 checks before price

0 of 4 confirmed

Apple verification

Ask the seller to open Settings and show Apple ID signed out and no Activation Lock under General > VPN and Device Management.
Check Settings > General > About > Carrier Lock to confirm unlocked status.
Power the phone on and test Face ID, cameras, speakers, and the charging port.

Condition

Inspect the screen for cracks, chips, and discoloration in natural light.

Watch for

Lock state and carrier status are seller-stated only. Confirm both in person before paying.
Battery at 89% is normal wear. Replacement runs roughly $99 if it drops below 80% soon.

If these check out, talk fair price. If they do not, lower your ceiling or pass.

Why this read

Useful read because battery health is known and identity is clear, but lock state and carrier status are seller-stated and need in-person confirmation.
