The development of technical devices does not stand still, therefore even the most advanced cell phone becomes obsolete after a while, and its owner buys a more modern gadget. In this case, it is not necessary to throw out the old device. You can dispose of it in different ways.
Instructions
Step 1
List your phone for sale. Although the device has been in use for some time, there is still some demand for it. Study the current prices for this model or see how much other owners are selling such a gadget. You can put up a product for sale on one of the ad sites, for example Avito.ru, or place an ad on your page on a social network. Here you can also tell about the sale of a phone in one of the city's public groups. So you can quickly find a buyer and profitably sell a device you no longer need.
Step 2
Return your phone to one of the thrift stores in your city. In return, you will receive a certain amount, which you can discuss with the store representatives. In order for the device to be accepted, you need to provide a phone with purchase documents, a warranty card (if the warranty has not yet expired), a sales receipt. In addition to the fact that this way the store will be able to verify that you really are the owner of the phone, you will have on hand its price indicated on the receipt. You will also need to provide your passport and other data in the store.
Step 3
You can return your old phone to a pawnshop, where it will also be put up for sale. The procedure for handing over the device to the hands of sellers is almost identical to the same in thrift stores. However, first you need to make sure that the pawnshop accepts such devices. Some institutions work exclusively with precious and other items.
Step 4
Make sure that the condition of the phone and its appearance allow it to be put up for sale. If it doesn't work, has severe scratches or other problems, representatives of pawnshops and commission dealers may not accept it or charge too low a price. In this case, consider selling the phone for parts.
