Any pre-owned device is going to inherently be less valuable than a brand new device. Phones are sharply depreciating assets.

What apple doesn’t seem to want is to recycle components from otherwise unusable devices into damaged devices . They want repair shops to have to buy parts directly from apple, so they can maintain control of the market.
