Quite often you can see questions from Internet users about whether it is possible to use an iPhone from America with us? Will a gadget purchased in the US on a contract be able to unlock and work normally? And most importantly, how to buy a phone in the US? You will learn about all this from this article.
It is not surprising that our customers are interested in the opportunity to purchase and ship an iPhone from America. Overseas, such a device costs from $ 99, and this price is very attractive. However, first of all, you should always remember that it is not so easy to get a top phone from the most famous manufacturer at such a low price. For example, the price of the iPhone 5 on the Apple website is $199. This phone is adapted to the operator (American, of course), but this binding can be bypassed by doing "unlock". It turns out that everything is simple. But what's the problem?
Firstly, you will not be able to purchase an iPhone from America because you do not have a US bank credit card, as well as a US citizen's social insurance. After all, the card will be debited every monththe amount of the contract, and in a year the owner must pay more than 1000 dollars for services. In a contract iPhone, these are mandatory items.
Second, even if you bought the device with a contract for your friend who lives in the US and has social security and a bank of America credit card, the friend will most likely bill you for the contract, which all still have to pay. In the event of a termination of the contract, the owner (in this case, your friend) will have to reimburse the operator for the profit that the latter expected to receive. In addition, you still have to take into account the cost of shipping from the United States. As you can see, everything is not as simple as it seems at first glance.
Well, there is another way. If you still have not lost hope of buying an iPhone from America, then you can use the eBay auction. To buy a mobile device here, you just need to follow seven fairly simple steps:
- register on eBay;
- create an account in the PayPal payment system;
- find on eBay the phone model you need;
- pay for the purchase and choose the method by which goods will be delivered from the USA;
- track goods; the seller will issue a special tracking number, but this service is only available for paid shipping methods;
- receive the parcel.
As you can see, everything is quite simple, but when buying through eBay, there can be complications. So thatWe recommend that you use USPS Express Mail International for delivery. Even before buying, you need to carefully inspect the product, especially in the case of a poor-quality photo, because you may not notice, for example, scratches or other damage. Everything needs to be checked - you need to know for sure that you are buying a properly working phone.
As you can see, if you make some effort, you can get the coveted iPhone model from America at a pretty good price. Of course, it will not be a new contract phone, but you will get the opportunity to use one of the latest models of the leading mobile phone manufacturer. So worth a try.
