Money for Phones

[jerryc41]

If you have an old cell phone that you don't need, you can get cash for it. The better, newer, more popular the phone, the more you will get. You can also get money for other electronics. I've gotten $165.89 for each of three iPhones, and $57.42 each for two Blackberries. I sent in two more phones a few days ago.

Go to cexchange.com and look up your item. If it's not listed, then you're out of luck. You have to tell them what kind of condition it's in, and they are very particular. I've been marked down one step on a couple of items. It can take two months, or more, to get the check, but they have always come through for me.

You have nothing to lose, not even the postage, so take a look.

You can also trade-in your old phones at

Verizon Trade In

They take other carrier's brands as well, and the condition requirements aren't as stringent.

I used Buy and Sell Electronics, Sell Cell Phone, Recycle Electronics - gazelle.com to sell my old BB Tour when I got the X. The gave me 100 bucks, seemed well worth it and was really fast.

Really? And you say this based on what exactly? The reason I ask...I just checked Verizons Trade In page linked above, and according to the appraisal, they will give me $52 for my HTC Touch. I am quite sure that since this device is well over 2 years old, you cant consider it a "current generation" phone...would you?

Moved to general discussion. Not X specific.

verizon also only gives you a verizon wireless gift card on the trade in so your stuck using it with them.

best buy also has a trade in. You have the choice of a check or a BB gift card.

They take all sorts of stuff too not just phones. I send back all our old phones at work for gift cards and my team splits the cards up. I figure they work on them for users, why not get money back? They give decent monies back.

Just for giggles I appraised my Droid X. $124.00. Hardly enough to put towards another phone, especially if you are still locked into a 2 year contract. I went to the Best Buy site and this is what I got for the estimate:

Gift Card Value: $203.00
Mail Check Value: $132.00

Gift card might be the better route cause you can still use that towards a new phone.

or even better just sell it on ebay when your ready. Droid X's go anywhere from 350 - 500 dollars all day long on ebay.

the original droid is going anywhere from 250 - 400 still
