I'm feeling pretty relaxed with my 15 Pro, one of the major reasons I upgraded, was future proofing for the inevitable, Apple Intelligence 😊

Not a big surprise, they're 6 & 5 years old respectively

So we swap the crease for scratches, cracks and oily thumb prints....highly unlikely.
I'm not convinced Apple will launch a foldable either, by the time they're ready, the fad will be over in China, just as it's over in the Western world.

First rule when buying from a third-party marketplace, ALWAYS ASK FOR RECEIPT OF ORIGINAL PURCHASE.

The receipt should say the original purchase date and serial number. Both of those can be taken to Apple for confirmation of authenticity. You can even check online and checkcoverage.apple.com

This should have been part of your article as it is the most useful and easiest way to make sure you’re not getting scammed.

I did, the guy sent me a fake invoice, so that doesn't always work, they had a cloned serial number and even Apple Care +....
However It's not hard to spot them, once they arrive, I bought two pairs, both fake on Ebay, you just need to know what to look for, I spotted they were both fake, without opening them and as a buyer you have protection from Ebay if something is not as described (just educate your self) by watching a couple of you tube films on the subject and don't buy from any platform, where you're not protected by the platform. Ebay is great for that.
Got my money back for both and then bought new from Apple

Your advice is only helpful for those knowingly buying used items. Counterfeits are passed off as new, genuine product.
