If AirPods no longer say owner can see location, can owner no longer see location?

[Anonymous]

I bought AirPods off fb marketplace and I assume they were stolen. I’ve never had them before so I didn’t know for sure how to make sure. I was told the guy who sold them to me had reset them and they connected to my phone no problem. Later on, it showed that the owner of the AirPods can see my location. I’m just nervous to have someone see my location and think I’m the one who stole them and show up to my house. When I first saw this I hadn’t been home yet and did what iPhone said to do to disable them. It’s not shown that owner can see location since then but it’s still showing on the map my route from when I bought them to my house. I reset them (I assume the fb guy was lying about resetting them) but that wasn’t until I got to my house, but like I said it only showed owner could see them the one time.

I’m not entirely sure how the AirPods tracking works even though I own a pair of them- but I feel like once they are reset and paired with a new phone you should be fine. If you have an Apple store nearby you might swing by and talk with them about it. I wouldn’t mention that you think they could have been stolen though.

Reset them. You've paid for them and should not be so naïve.

Is you assume something is stolen, then you're an idiot to buy it

Why do the 1st graders who can’t read full sentences keep finding my post? I realized it hours after I bought l, there was no indication to begin with.

So if you knew they were stolen why would you buy them? Sounds like you got yours.

If you knew how to read I had no indication they were someone else’s until hours later after I’d bought them genius

First thing you said is that you knew they were stolen, but whatever. B mad.

I assume they are stolen now. I said that to get to the point of the question. I explain the situation and at what point I came to that conclusion. You just wanna bitch about something and spell incorrectly. Fuck outta here
