Old iPhone

Can I sell a old iPhone?

Usually, yes. Older iPhones that still power on keep a resale value with buyers who want a cheaper device, and parts demand supports the rest. The quote shows the figure for your exact generation.

How much is a old iPhone worth?

Age is already built into the price of each generation, so grade only the condition you see. An old iPhone in Good shape still beats one in Poor shape by a clear margin.

Questions about selling a old iPhone

How old is too old to sell an iPhone?

If your generation is listed in the quote, we buy it. Older than that, email the model name and we tell you whether it has value. You see the iPhone offer before giving any personal details, and shipping is always free. The whole iPhone sale happens online and by mail, with no fees and no meetups.

Does an old iPhone lose value every month?

Yes, gradually, and faster each time a new generation launches. Selling sooner almost always pays more than waiting. Prices track current resale demand for each configuration, and your condition answers fine-tune the iPhone figure before you ship. Two iPhone units from the same year can be worth very different amounts, because storage and condition move the price more than age.

Should I replace the battery before selling an old iPhone?

Rarely worth it. Battery wear costs a small deduction, usually less than a battery service. Normal wear trims the iPhone offer a little; a swollen battery needs an email before shipping. The quote asks for battery health so the iPhone price matches what testing measures. For your exact iPhone figure, use the free quote on this page; it takes about a minute.

How do I get paid when I sell a old iPhone?

Choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) when you accept. After the iPhone passes testing, payment is sent within 1 to 2 business days of your iPhone passing testing. If anything differs from your answers, you see a revised offer first and can decline it for a free return. Pick PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) as you accept the offer, and change it by email any time before payment.
