Question for all of you techies out there:

What is good place to buy a used IPhone? And if it is HOT what could happen with the Apple folks? My husband is in the process of shopping online for a 10 or 11. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to all.

I can't say about a 10 or an 11. They are sold unlocked. The only thing that makes them Tracfones are the SIMs. Don't install the SIM they send you, and the phone is ready for any service.

There's always good old Walmart. I haven't checked there either.

Here's Tracfone: https://shop.tracfone.com/shop/en/tracfonestore/phones

Full disclosure: I have an iPhone that I bought new from Tracfone. It pretty much does all the things that I need it to do. I was not able to use it as a hotspot. Tracfone did not not allow that. That might have changed with the latest software upgrade. I haven't looked into it.
