I got my Pixel second hand off Trade me, less than a year old and an awful lot cheaper than a new one!
Our customs are all asswipes, even if you buy a second hand phone. They'll impose import duties as a new phone.
You're not able to buy second hand locally? I know Pixels aren't sold too widely so I wouldn't be surprised if you can't.
It's worthless, the importers bribes our customs. So the registered IMEI can be removed from database at anytime and the phone becomes no signal.
Oh that sucks 🙁
