I have an older version iPhone that, according to this site: cash for your phones, I can get $35 for. It is in good/fair condition with a scratch on the front. This site guarantees that cash amount upon receipt, or they return it to you free. Also, the shipping to THEM is free.

I was holding onto this phone in case I lost my newer one, but I really should not hold onto old gear. It's better to make some money and get the space back, and have less things to worry over.

There are other ways to sell old phones, like ebay and craigslist.

Has anyone sold an old cell phone? Where and how did it go?

Looking at craigslist ads nationally, it seems that my 3G phone is selling for $40 to hundreds of dollars. That is a huge range. I guess it accounts for condition, area being sold and availability.

Other factors seem to be if the phone is the white case kind or the usual black, or if it is unlocked/jailbroke.

Used ATT phones are going for a nice amount...maybe because they come with the contract already expired? That seems to make sense.

This website - craigslistiphone.com- is a good resource to start with.

...looking further, it seems that i would do MUCH better selling my 3G iphone on Craigslist than on cash 4 phones.

Comments? Any experiences to share?

Great article Jilly. I have old phones from years past and just hold on to them not knowing how I can recycle....
Thanks for the tips!

I sold mine on Craigslist very inexpensively. One went for $20; another for $10. Could have gotten more. The response was swift and overwhelming. I'm just glad they went to those who could use them.
