When buying a new phone, the question immediately arises about what to do with the old model. You can give it to your friends or relatives, or you can sell it profitably to those interested in this.
Instructions
Step 1
Sell your old phone for a profit. To do this, you can contact resellers, thrift stores, pawnshops, repair shops, etc. If your device is still under warranty, try returning it to the store where you bought it. If all the conditions of the guarantee are met, you will be reimbursed for the full cost of the phone or they will be offered to change it to a new model. You can also sell your phone to individuals by placing ads in print media or on special resources on the Internet.
Step 2
Take your phone to a service center or repair shop if the phone does not function properly and needs repair. In this case, it is important that the causes of failure are taken into account in the warranty agreement. In this case, the device will be repaired free of charge. After the repair, you can sell the device or get money for it in thrift stores and pawnshops, since these institutions only accept phones in working order. If there is a guarantee and documents confirming that the device belongs to you, this will be a significant plus in favor of the total cost, which will be appreciated by the buyers of the phone.
Step 3
If the device can no longer be repaired, it can be returned for parts to the same repair shops, some of which are very profitable to buy certain parts, especially if the device is in high demand. You can sell the device for spare parts to individuals interested in this by placing appropriate ads. The greatest demand is usually for screens, back covers, batteries and keys.
Step 4
Put your phone in good hands. You can give it to friends or family who urgently need a mobile device. Unpretentious in choice and indifferent to technical innovations pensioners are usually always glad to old models. Also, the old phone can be given to the child. In the end, you can just put the device in a drawer and it will come in handy if you lose your new phone or it breaks down.
