Amazon has a beta program called Electronics Trade-in. And they just started accepting iOS devices for trade-in.
If you have been holding on to your iPhone or iPod Touch and didn’t have luck selling it via eBay, Craigslist or just didn’t want to go through the hassle, this could be a great way to make some cash.
You can trade-in your iPhone 3GS, iPhone 2G, iPod Touch 3rd gen, etc for Amazon gift cards. The price you get won’t be the same as selling by other means but this has to be the simplest and quickest.
Here are a few sample rates Amazon pays for your old iOS devices
- iPhone 3GS 8GB – $162
- iPhone 3GS 16GB – $235
- iPhone 2G 16GB – $102
- iPod Touch 32GB 3rd gen – $121.25
- iPod Touch 32GB 1st gen – $72
You can ship your device to Amazon for free and receive Amazon gift certificates valid for any future purchases instead.
