How can you tell if the phone you're buying is unlocked? (mander.xyz)

Basically no sellers I’ve seen whether their Pixels can have their boot loader unlocked. So how did you get yours and how can I avoid getting a lemon?

They are independent, but if it was originally carrier unlocked, you're definitely okay. The way I understand it, Swappa at least, only allows OEM unlocked phones to be sold as unlocked.
