PeryStore specialise in the sale of new and used smartphones and tablets. All our products are working, factory reset, fully tested and carefully graded A+, A,B and C unless marked ‘Brand New’.
Our office is open Monday to Friday from 09:30 until 17:30. We don’t have any of those automated phone services so you’ll get through to a real person, imagine that! Please quote your order number in any correspondence. If you’d prefer not to call you can email us at sales@perystores.com. We always reply and endeavour to do so within 24 working hours. Before contacting, have a browse through the FAQs as they‘ll probably provide you with the info you’re looking for.
The internet is our shop front! Like most online retailers, we’re based in a warehouse rather than a shop so for safety reasons we can’t really allow viewings or collections. However, we’re really strict with our grading system and our dispatch is very quick.
All our grade A, B and C products ship in our own branded boxes and we think they’re great! They’re made from 100% recycled card and have space for a cable and a SIM pin. The product will be protected in a shiny purple bubble bag. Have a look at a pic below.
Yes. All paperwork provided will have the IMEI number printed on it.
Yes but to avoid hassle, it’s recommended that you purchase a SIM unlocked product. Some of the networks above ‘piggy back’ off the major UK networks. For example, you can use a Giff Gaff/ TESCO Mobile SIM in a product locked to O2. If you’d like to use one of the networks above in one of our locked products, it’s advisable to contact them to find out which major network they ‘piggy back’ off.
Yes. However, it’s definitely worth contacting your network provider to notify them of your new product and to see if they can adjust your tariff to the product you have. Smart phones and tablets typically use a lot of data so you may need to ask for more. You may even end up saving some money.
Your network provider should provide you with what you need upon request. We’d advise to arrange this before purchasing so you can get up and running as soon as possible. You can get adaptors to allow a micro/ nano SIM to work in a product that requires a standard sized SIM so you’re not without a phone for any period of time.
We must stress that this is very unlikely and should it occur we will always guarantee to replace any handset purchased from us regardless of warranty, so you’re always safe with us. We have systems in place that help to prevent the selling of handsets which are blocked and work closely with the police and CheckMend, the international database for stolen property. Before we receive our stock it’s checked, while it’s in stock it’s checked and before it’s dispatched it’s checked.
New products ship in the original sealed box with the original accessories and full manufacturer warranty. Grade A+ is like new and ships in the original box with all the original accessories and our 6 Month warranty. Grades A, B and C ship in our own beautiful branded box with a 6 Month warranty, SIM pin (if applicable) and data cable (except products which use lightning cables*)
*At checkout you’ll be offered a chance to purchase an official Apple Lightning Cable for £6.99 (RRP £15). Using an official Apple cable will help preserve the battery life of your product and maximise compatibility. Please note: used lightning cables cannot be returned for a refund.
Feeling unsure what to choose? Let us help….
- Brand new = Brand new! It will have full manufacturer warranty and come with all original accessories. Hurrah!
- Grade A+ = In box, with original accessories and our 6 Month warranty. The phone will be pristine.
- Grade A = The item will be pristine and come with our 6 Month warranty. A cable will be provided for free (except Apple lightning cables*). It comes in our own branded box.
- Grade B = Used but in excellent condition, will show a few light marks. It comes in our own branded box with free cable where applicable* and our 6 Month day warranty.
- Grade C = We think of this as average condition, it will show signs of use. Ideal for kids who are likely to bump and scratch the phone anyway, or clumsy adults! It’s worth remembering that what we describe as average, other retailers describe as ‘good’ – we grade a bit more stringently! If you’re not happy with the condition you can always return it for free using our 14 day no quibble returns policy. As with grades A and B it comes with a free cable where applicable*, in our own branded box and with our 6 Month warranty!
All of our phones (except brand new) are thoroughly tested and working but, just in case, we do offer the 6 Month warranty. Our 14 day no quibble returns policy gives you peace of mind.
If you’ve treated yourself to a ‘brand new’ phone please make sure you want it before you open it as we can’t accept returns on opened, unwanted, ‘brand new’ items.
*At checkout you’ll be offered a chance to purchase an official Apple Lightning Cable for £6.99 (RRP £15). Using an official Apple cable will help preserve the battery life of your product and maximise compatibility. Please note: used lightning cables cannot be returned for a refund.
No. When our stock is received we fully test, grade and sell. There’s no tinkering involved!
If you’re buying the very latest product it’s safe to assume it will have some remaining warranty and brand new phones will come with full warranty but for other phones we just don’t know. Due to receiving large volumes of stock we can’t check the individual handsets, apologies for any inconvenience.
We sell products for use on all major UK networks: O2, Orange, TMobile, Vodafone, 3 and EE. We also sell SIM unlocked products which will work on all networks. Make sure you select the network compatible with your SIM. Some tablets are WiFi only which means that connectivity is restricted to a WiFi network in the home or workplace.
Yes, you can! You may want to check with the original network provider or the manufacturer to verify this or you might consider purchasing a factory unlocking service from a high street or online retailer. Jail-breaking or Rooting will invalidate our 6 Month warranty and any manufacturer warranty that may be remaining, so beware!
We won’t give away your details and we won’t give you anyone else’s either. Them’s the rules.
EE locked products will certainly work with both an Orange and TMobile SIM. However, it’s not always certain that an Orange locked product will work with a TMobile SIM and vise versa. It’ll be worth contacting your network provider to see if this is the case.
No. We currently do not supply contracts, PAYG deals or SIM cards.
Of course. If you register as a business and provide a valid VAT registration number you’ll automatically receive a £5 – £10 discount per handset depending on the quantity of products purchased.
Not at all. The more the merrier. And if you’re a VAT registered company there’s a £5 discount per item for 1-9 products and a £10 discount per item for 10 or more products.

It’s ok, we receive loads of stock on a daily basis. We don’t order to demand and we receive stock on an “as and when” basis which means it’s difficult to pin point exactly when we’ll receive a specific product but you can use the stock notification system (See below). We don’t have the facility to take pre orders, deposits or to hold stock for customers, sorry!
Yes. If you’re desperate for something, you can request to receive an email notification when the product you’re interested in becomes available. You’ll need to click ‘Browse All’, filter the search and select the product you’d like, then click the ‘Notify Me’ button and follow the instructions. You’ll then receive an email as soon as we get the item in stock. This doesn’t guarantee you’ll receive the product as we operate on a first-come-first-served basis and if you miss out, you’ll need to register your details again.
Sorry no. Payment is made via our website only. We accept all major credit and debit cards and PayPal.
