iPhone 16 used price guide and live deals
A iPhone 16 asking price is only comparable to another 2024 iPhone 16 with the same capacity and condition. This page tells you what to line up. The prices themselves come from the live search, not from a table. The base iPhone 16 uses A18, a 60Hz display, and USB 2. It has Camera Control and an Action button, but it is not a Pro: no ProMotion and no 5x tetraprism. It is not the iPhone 16 Plus. Shipped phones cluster on eBay, Mercari, and Swappa. Local phones show up on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, and Craigslist. If you opened this from a YouTube video, the price in that video is the creator's example, not a live comp.

iPhone 16 storage tiers

Condition checklist
Run this list on a iPhone 16 before you treat two live asking prices as the same product. A parts listing is not a comp for a working one.
- The About screen must say iPhone 16, not 16 Pro or 16 Pro Max.
- There is no 1TB iPhone 16. A 1TB title is a different model.
- USB-C on this phone is USB 2, not the Pro's USB 3.
- Battery health, Find My, and carrier lock still decide whether it is a working phone.
Marketplace fee breakdown
Seller fees for a iPhone 16 are not the buyer's price and not a sold average. The ranges below are the same qualitative notes BuyLow publishes on its reselling guides. The marketplace fee page is the source of truth, because rates change.

Local pickup versus shipped for the iPhone 16
Local cash on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, and Craigslist can skip a selling fee and a shipping label. A shipped iPhone 16 on eBay or Mercari adds that site's fee and the carrier. Shipped phones cluster on eBay, Mercari, and Swappa. Local phones show up on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, and Craigslist. The search on this page is BuyLow's live search for "iPhone 16". It is not a map of one city.
eBay, Mercari, and Swappa for the iPhone 16
eBay: About 13–15% final value fee on most categories plus a small per-order fee; lower for some electronics. Mercari: A selling fee of about 10% plus card processing; check the current rate. Facebook Marketplace: Free for local pickup; shipped orders pay a percentage selling fee. Swappa reviews working devices in the categories it supports.

Flip checklist for a iPhone 16
A flip is a real buy price, minus fees and shipping, minus a real sell price. This page does not have those two prices, so it does not print a margin. Confirm A18 before you buy something to resell. Quote is only for an item you already own, and only when a buyback source has published a price.
- Match the spec on the device or the packaging, not only in the title.
- Subtract the fee notes above and shipping before you treat a gap as money.
- Local pickup can skip shipping. Meet in public and confirm it works.
- A number in a video is that creator's example. Search live listings.
