How our phone auctions work
Place a bid online any time before the auction closes. You can bid manually in the minimum increments shown, or set a maximum bid and our system will bid on your behalf up to your limit. The highest bid when the timer ends wins. Lots auto-extend by 2 minutes if a bid is placed in the closing minute, so every bidder gets a fair chance to respond.
Condition and what to check before bidding
Phone lot descriptions list the make, model, storage capacity, colour and condition. Look out for these terms:
- Sealed: factory sealed, brand new, never opened
- Boxed: new in original box, may have been opened for inspection
- Unboxed: phone without original packaging, condition stated in description
- Network unlocked: works with any UK or international network SIM
- Network locked: tied to a specific network, may require unlocking before use
If anything is unclear about a specific lot, contact us before bidding.

Frequently asked questions
What is a mobile phone auction?
A mobile phone auction is an online sale where buyers bid on individual handsets, tablets and tech accessories rather than paying a fixed price. At Simon Charles, our weekly phone auctions feature unlocked smartphones from Apple, Samsung, Google, Xiaomi and other major brands, with bidding typically starting at £1 per lot.
Are the phones unlocked?
Most phones in our auctions are sold unlocked, meaning they work with any UK or international network SIM. Network status is shown clearly on every lot page. If a phone is known to be locked to a specific network, the description will state which one.
How much do iPhones and Samsung Galaxy phones typically sell for at auction?
Hammer prices vary by model, age, condition and storage. Older or mid-range handsets often sell for £20 to £150. Recent flagships like iPhone 15 Pro or Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra attract competitive bidding and higher final prices, though typically still well below high-street retail.
Are the phones new, refurbished or used?
We list a mix. Many handsets are brand new in box, some are unboxed but unused, and others are pre-owned, ex-display or customer returns. Every lot description states the condition clearly, including any known issues with the screen, battery, charging port or buttons.
Do phones come with chargers and accessories?
We make no guarantees however boxed lots may include whatever came in the original retail box, which varies by model. Many newer phones from Apple and Samsung ship without a charger as standard. Unboxed lots are sold with the handset only unless stated otherwise. Check the lot description and photos before bidding.
Can I get a phone delivered or do I have to collect?
Mobile phones, tablets and accessories are normally marked Postal and shipped UK-wide. A few bulk lots or oversized devices are Collection only from our saleroom. The fulfilment option is shown on every lot page before you bid.
