Buy Used iPhones in Cincinnati, Tested and Backed for 90 Days
Looking for a used or refurbished iPhone in Cincinnati? Phones4Cash sells pre-owned iPhones out of a real storefront at 7712 Montgomery Rd in Kenwood. Every phone passes a 68-point diagnostic, carries a 90-day warranty, and is graded honestly before it hits the shelf. No parking-lot meetups, no guessing.
Why buy a used iPhone from a local shop instead of Marketplace?
Buying from a stranger on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp or Craigslist can save a few dollars. It can also leave you holding a phone that is iCloud locked, blacklisted, still being financed, or running on a worn-out battery, with nobody to call when it fails.
Here is what you get at Phones4Cash instead:
- IMEI checked. Every phone is verified clean: not blacklisted, not reported lost or stolen.
- No Activation Lock surprises. Phones sold for normal use are fully signed out and ready to set up.
- Battery health disclosed. You see the number before you pay.
- Parts disclosed. If a phone has an aftermarket screen or battery, we tell you upfront and price it accordingly.
- A counter to come back to. If something goes wrong in 90 days, you walk in and we handle it.
Our grades, explained in plain English
Every iPhone is graded before it is listed, and the grade is on the tag.
| Grade | What it looks like | Battery |
|---|---|---|
| A — Like New | No scratches, dents or scuffs. Looks nearly brand new. | 90% or higher |
| B — Very Good | 1 to 3 very light screen scratches, minor scuffs, no cracks. Best value for most people. | 80% or higher |
| C — Good | Visible wear, small dents or scuffs. Works perfectly. | 75% or higher |
| D — Fair | Heavy cosmetic wear, reliable performance. Lowest price. | Below 75% |
Every grade is 100% functional: Face ID or Touch ID, cameras, speakers, microphones, charging port, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and buttons are all tested.
What is tested in the 68-point diagnostic?
Before an iPhone goes on sale, we check the display and touch response, battery health and charging, front and rear cameras, speakers and microphones, Face ID or Touch ID, every button, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular signal, and carrier and lock status. If it fails, it gets repaired in-house or it does not get sold.
