Thrifty Thinking: Decluttr

With the new iPhone just announced, data from tech buy-back site Decluttr.com has revealed that those wanting to upgrade should sell their old devices now to get the most cash.

While iPhones tend to hold their value quite well in comparison to Android handsets, the data shows that customers who sell now can get up to 25 percent more for either an Apple or Android device than if they wait to trade-in after a major phone launch.

Current trade-in prices at Decluttr.com are as follows:
Model Trade-in value
iPhone 7 Up to $451
iPhone 6s Plus Up to $288
iPhone 6s Up to $287
iPhone 6 Plus Up to $207
iPhone 6 Up to $174
iPhone 5s Up to $85
Galaxy Note 5 Up to $140
S7 Edge Up to $192
Galaxy Note 4 Up to $92
Galaxy S6 Edge Up to $126
Galaxy S6 Up to $115

Liam Howley, CMO at Decluttr.com, said, “By analyzing both our own and industry data, we can see it really does pay to trade-in ahead of a major phone launch, especially if you are looking to upgrade to the new model.

“Naturally, once a new phone enters the top of the market, all older phones will drop in price. We see a huge rise in trade-ins ahead of any new iPhone launch as savvy consumers rush to secure the best price possible. With the ability to lock-in prices with Decluttr for 14 days, our price promise, free postage, alongside with the excitement around the 10th anniversary iPhone, I expect this year to be the biggest yet.”
