My Note20 Ultra is getting long in the tooth and i was looking at the s25 Ultra 1TB. I can get a “mint condition” one from CeX for a few hundred less than buying new along with a “5 year guarantee” which is the lifetime i would expect of such a phone.

I’m a little apprehensive about dropping 1.2-1.3k on a phone from what is essentially a high street pawn broker though.

I know from personal experience that a lot of stolen stuff ends up in CeX, if a phone i buy ends up blacklisted after i buy it is it covered by the guarantee?
