The detail, with recorded prices
A price under the ceiling doesn't tell you whether the timing is right. The “lowest” and “average” columns place today's price against each model's history.

| $230 | $226 | $243 | Very low | ||
| $276 | $261 | $270 | Average | ||

Why this list changes
A model's entry price depends on which sellers are listed and what stock they hold that day. A model can therefore enter this page after a drop, then leave it days later without any promotion being announced.
We don't freeze the list to make it look stable: it would then describe a past state of the market. What we keep is each model's history, which shows whether today's price is low for that model or merely low against the others.
Other budgets
If the ceiling is too tight or too loose, these pages list the same models under a different amount.
Frequently asked questions about iPhones under $400
Which refurbished iPhones can you get under $400?
At our latest reading, 5 tracked models came in under $400 on Back Market US: from the iPhone 13 at $230 up to the iPhone 15 at $392.
These are entry prices: they match the cheapest configuration available for that model on the day, not every storage size.
Can the price climb back above $400?
Yes, and it often does. The entry price depends on sellers and stock: on Back Market US, the same model can gain or lose tens of dollars from one week to the next.
The list above is rebuilt at every reading. A model that climbs back above the ceiling disappears from it automatically, with no edit on our side.
What is the best price ever recorded in this range?
The lowest price we have observed among these models is $226, on the iPhone 13, on September 2, 2026.
It is a useful benchmark: it shows how far the price has already gone down, and therefore what an alert can reasonably aim for.
