If you’re looking to upgrade your iPad or other tablet, a trade-in can help you save. Trade-in values will, of course, vary based on product and condition. You can answer questions on each site to help determine your trade-in value. Just keep in mind that all retailers specify that estimates can change once your product is accessed.
It looks like the best place to trade-in will be through Amazon.
I have provided a few price comparisons for your reference. However, these can change daily so only use the estimates listed as a guide!
Trade In or Sell Used iPad:
Apple: Accepts electronic equipment, including Apple iPhone, iPad, Mac or PC computers, and displays. You can get Apple Store Gift Card for your old equipment. Apple will also provide FREE shipping of your product.
Turn that iPhone, iPad, or computer — Mac or PC — you’re not using anymore into something brand new. Send it to us and we’ll determine if it qualifies for reuse. If it does, that means your device has monetary value that we’ll apply to an Apple Store Gift Card, which you can use for purchases at any Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store. If your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or PC doesn’t qualify for reuse, we’ll recycle it responsibly at no cost to you.
