When Apple introduces an iPhone, it puts the most powerful chip on the market inside that device. Although the power of this chip is insufficient compared to Android phones over time, it remains the flagship of every iPhone era. In this content, we have discussed how you can sell your iPhone, which you have been using for a long time, at a high price.
How to sell old iPhone at high price?
First, review the price you have set as high in your mind. Because if you want to sell an iPhone 6 for 3000 TL in 2021, this is not possible. In order to find out the value of your device in the second-hand market, you need to search for your device model on second-hand trading sites and review the market. After you have a good price in mind, we have some suggestions for you to sell your device at the ideal price.
Be firm on the price you want
For example, if you put your iPhone 7 on sale for 2000 TL, you will be the target of those who want to buy this device for 1700 TL. However, iPhones are not rare devices, there will always be those who want to buy an iPhone. If the buyer insists on a lower price than you want, politely decline, because many buyers will find you when selling iPhones. Of course, if you need cash urgently, you can cut the price a little and start meeting with the buyer immediately.
Write a good description
It is important to specify the condition of your device in the most accurate way. Because even the iPhone with only one pixel missing on the screen loses its value. Do not forget to include the following information in your used sale advertisement:
- Device model clearly
- The date you purchased the device
- Warranty status and invoice
- Percentage of battery health
- RAM and storage capacity
- Screen status and authenticity
- Accessories available
- IMEI status (Adding your IMEI number to the ad is inconvenient, you should only mention its status.)
- Replaced or repaired parts
While explaining this technical information well, also be confident in bargaining. When selling your device, specify in the ad if the price will be negotiable.
Evaluate trade offers
If you are thinking of selling your iPhone and buying a new one, it may be profitable for you to trade. You will most likely still get a used phone when you trade in, but it can be profitable sometimes. For example, if you are going to switch from iPhone 8 to iPhone 11, research the price difference between the two devices and format this difference by talking to the person you will trade with. Thus, you can make a cheaper purchase than usual by giving your device and paying the price difference.
Chase “bring the old, take the new” campaigns
Shopping sites such as Hepsiburada and Apple itself may organize such campaigns for iPhones from time to time. By evaluating these campaigns, you can turn your old device into a gift card or cash. Also, depending on the site where you’re going to perform the transaction, this exchange may be more secure.
