Not unless the items are stolen property. However,carrying that many phones could constitute probable cause giving a police officer the right to search the rest of your car.
Re: Carring Electronic Items without Receipts
Not illegal in itself but having a great deal of such items will sure attract attention from the police who will think you are receiving/dealing in stolen property. I would make sure to have receipts or any documentation showing the items are possessed legitimately.
Hope this helps,
