Now that everyone has seen and scrutinize the features of Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus many iPhone users are contemplating in selling their old units. With price ranged fairly above what was previously expected, iPhone owners are interested in mitigating the cost, especially the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus.
So, where can existing iPhone owners unload their old gadgets?
There are countless vendors that would be more than happy to snap up the iPhone 5, but it may be more prudent to shop around first and compare prices and what the buyers are offering.
UpgradeSwap has cobbled together a list of all the best places to sell old iPhone along with the payout range users can expect from each and the reasons they might choose one over another.
First up are eBay and Craigslist. Sellers are likely to make more money than they would from a trade-in site like Gazelle or uSell, but they have to be willing to put in the time and effort to create a listing, meet with/ship the device to a stranger and field questions from anyone interested in their old phone. The eBay payout can be anywhere from US$ 207 – US$ 470 and Craigslist is listed at US$ 221 – US$ 397.
If sellers prefer to take the money and run, trade-in sites are infinitely more convenient. Depending on the timing, there’s even a chance that they will get around the same price for the used device as they would selling it to an individual. Each of the trade-in sites have a price lock feature which ensures that they will get the best price for their phone, even if they decide to hold on to it for a few extra weeks. UpgradeSwap happens to have the longest price lock, lasting until November 3rd no matter which phone the seller want to trade in.
Between UpgradeSwap, Gazelle, uSell and Nextworth, old iPhone selers are looking at anywhere between US$ 100 and US$ 260, depending on the model of iPhone.
T-Mobile is even joining in on the trade-in madness — the carrier announced on 8 September 2014 that is would beat any offer from any other major carrier this fall, give the customer back the difference in price and then throw in US$ 50 on top of that. This offer starts on September 17th and will only last for a limited time.
