06Genuine only

Counterfeit chargers, power banks and earbuds are common and can be unsafe. Buy from sources you can verify, check serials and IMEI where relevant and never list look-alike brands. Counterfeit goods are blocked and risk your account.

07Describe the box contents exactly

Say whether a charger cable is included, what accessories come with a phone and whether it is new or refurbished. Complete descriptions reduce disputes and returns.

08Stock by demand

Chargers, cables and power banks are everyday needs. Phones and tablets are higher value and higher risk. Start with accessories you can verify and grow into higher-value items carefully.

09Common gadget mistakes

Selling counterfeit chargers, not stating if an item is refurbished and omitting the box contents. Genuine, clearly described goods protect your record.

10A typical scenario

A supplier keeps verified genuine chargers and power banks and avoids look-alike stock.
