There are lots of different questions that people have when they first look into selling their mobile phone for money. This article will hopefully answer a couple of the most common questions for you.
My phone is damaged, can I still sell it for cash?
Most phone recycling companies will accept damaged phones, but you need to be prepared that you’ll get a vastly decreased cost. In a number of cases if your phone isn’t working you will only get ten percent of the quoted price which may mean that it is not worth your time to sell it and you are better off just recycling it for nothing.
How is a damaged phone defined?
When you attempt to get cash for mobiles different companies will have different definitions of what a damaged phone basically is. If your phone has a lot of water damage or is physically broken in two then you probably won’t be in a position to get any money for it. On the other hand, if you have a phone that is in good physical condition yet will not boot up to the start screen you will still be able to sell it for a lowered price.
How much do I get when I sell my mobile?
This is dependent upon a large amount of different factors like the type phone that you are trying to sell as well as what condition it was in. When you sell your old mobile remember that there is a range of costs so it is typically a good idea to search around for the best deals.
Am I able to sell new phones?
Most companies will not give you a greater price for a new phone making it not worth your while to sell it. you’ll find certain firms which will give you a better price if you’re selling a new phone that’s still in perfect condition. If this is the case though then you probably should not sell it to phone recycling company but instead somewhere such as eBay.
How long does it take?
Again, this depends on the company that you select although the amount of time it usually takes for a phone to be inspected by a company and then either returned to you or accepted is about a week. You must then have the money with you right after that. Most corporations will provide a tenet of how long they typically take to get the money to you on their site.
