You found a buyer and the payment is safely in escrow — now the phone has to reach them in one piece. Most "damaged in transit" disputes come down to lazy packing. Here's how to do it right in Pakistan. Theek se pack karein, tension-free payout.
1. Back up and factory reset first
Before it leaves your hands:
- Back up your data, then sign out of iCloud (iPhone) or your Google + Samsung accounts (Android).
- Factory reset so there's no activation lock — a locked phone on arrival is an instant dispute.
- Confirm it still powers on after reset.

2. Pack it so it can't move
A phone cracks when it can shift and hit a hard edge. Stop that:
- Bubble wrap the phone (2–3 layers), screen side in.
- Put it in a small box — not just a flyer. Fill every gap with paper, foam or more bubble wrap so it doesn't rattle.
- Add the box and accessories (charger, cable) if included, padded separately.
- Tape the box shut, then place the box inside the courier's flyer.
Never ship a phone loose in a soft courier envelope. That's the #1 cause of cracked screens.
3. Film the packing video — your payout insurance
On NoSiappa this is required, and it's there to protect you. In one unbroken clip:
- Dial
*#06#so the IMEI is on screen — hold it to the camera. - Show the phone powering on and looking clean (no cracks).
- Place it into the box, add the padding, and seal the flyer — all in the same shot.
If the buyer ever claims "it arrived broken" or "wrong device," this video is your evidence. A clear packing video wins disputes. NoSiappa kabhi sellers ko akela nahi chhorta.
4. Ship tracked and hand over
- The platform books a tracked courier pickup — you just hand over the sealed parcel.
- Keep the tracking number and the receipt until the sale settles.
- Ship on time — late shipments hurt your seller score and the buyer's patience.
5. After delivery
- The buyer has a short inspection window to confirm the phone.
- Once they confirm, your payout is released to your wallet (held briefly by the trust hold), and you can withdraw to your bank.
- Not as described or a genuine problem? It goes to disputes & returns — and your packing video does the heavy lifting.
Sell with escrow on your side
On NoSiappa the buyer's money sits in escrow the moment they pay, you ship with a tracked courier, and your payout is released after the buyer confirms — to a bank account in your own name. No cash-on-meetup risk, no chasing payment.
Aap ka phone mehfooz, aap ki payment mehfooz — bas theek se pack karein.
