Looking to upgrade to the iPhone 5? What can you do with your current iPhone
Now we're not talking about those in stores but in fact those in the hands of owners who are tempted to upgrade to the iPhone 5 when it launches. So what can you do with your current iPhone 4? The good news is that Apple products have strong resale values and if you have a working iPhone 4 without any major scratches or cracks, that's a cool $250 in your pocket that can contribute to your next phone, the iPhone 5.
Nextworth electronics buyback service is offering $250 for all 16GB and 32GB AT&T iPhone 4 units in good working condition with no heavy scratches or cracks between now and October 4. Now you don't need to hand your iPhone 4 in today and can hang on to it for 21 days after signing the deal. If you decide to wait until after the iPhone 5 is released before signing the deal, you're out $50.
Gazelle has a deal as well albeit not as good. Look towards grabbing anywhere between $163 and $225 for your iPhone 4 depending on its condition.
Lastly if these aren't good enough and you want to put a little more effort into disposing your iPhone 4 off, hit eBay where iPhone 4 units are currently selling as high as $400.
