HT201269 second hand iPhone 5 help please.

If I buy a second hand iPhone 5 (unblocked) on ios 6 and the previous owner doesn't have/won't give me/can't give me his Apple ID is there anyway I can use this phone?

The phone may be locked with a passcode. If it is, follow the directions here, to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:

This will remove the passcode, but also update the phone to iOS 7.0.4...no way around this if there's a passcode on the phone. If no passcode, just do the erase all settings & content if you don't want to update the phone.
Good luck.
