How do I know when my phone was purchased?

Hi kimberlyfromhoover,
Re: How can I determine the date my phone was purchased?
Sorry I can not just say for sure!
Thank you for sharing your question with us.
Your original receipt would have the date of purchase.
Wondering where you keep "proof of purchase" / warranty documents / guarantees etc
or
If you took out extra "Apple Care" there may be records of that with a date..
Eg: Some of us keep any Apple receipts and documentation in the original packaging.
or
Sometimes searching for eMails from Apple (archived / iPhone back-up?) can uncover an e-mailed receipt with date of purchase
✽. NB: Tips for searching: Search for email in Mail on iPhone – Apple Support
Wikipedia says the iPhone 6 and 6s were announced on September 9, 2014, and released on September 19, 2014.
(Eg: You may remember the approximate time in relation to the release date ... or the season of year ... etc.)
You cmay be able to enter the iPhone's serial number online and see what info., if any, is available there.

Mmm. That's about all that comes to mind.
All the best :-)

Who's the seller? Apple?
Contact Apple Support:
If purchased form Apple, then they'd have the answer upfront (from their end).
