The new iPhone 6s and 6s Plus have already appeared in the countries of the first sales wave and will soon get to us, which means that now is the time to save money on their purchase. Given the current prices for Apple's technique, before you buy a new iPhone, many will have to sell old. How to do it correctly and most profitable, you will learn from this article.

Best time for sale

Some people do not sell the old iPhone until the new will appear on sale, afraid to stay without a smartphone. In this case, it is necessary to understand that after the appearance new iPhone. On sale the price of previous models (and all generations) will begin to decline dramatically. This is especially true, the most the best modelwhich will stop being so for one moment. Therefore, if you are the owner of the iPhone 6 and want to get as much as possible for it, then in your interests sell it until the iPhone 6S exit. Call an old Nokia with mezzanine, lend a phone from buddies or buy something inexpensive to stay in touch with those days left before entering new iPhone on sale.

Prepare the iPhone to sell

Before placing an announcement of the sale, you need to do a few things that will help sell the iPhone at a more favorable price.

Disable "Find iPhone"

Starting with iOS 7, all iPhone with the "Find iPhone" function is not activated by other users without password apple Id former owner. Therefore, you must be absolutely confident that we disconnected this function before passing the smartphone to the new owner. Otherwise, because of your forgetfulness, he will have great troubles.

To turn off, it is enough to open "Settings" → ICloud → "Find iPhone" and turn off the toggle switch. This will need to enter a password from your Apple ID.

Make a reset to erase all your data

Before selling your old iPhone, you must also be sure that it does not have your personal data on it. You do not want the new owner to see your personal photos, messages and data of various accounts, right? Fortunately, the reset function is very conveniently implemented in iOS and you can completely erase your iPhone, restoring it to the state, how it was immediately after the purchase. Make it very simple.

Open the "Settings" → "Main" → "Reset" and select the "Erase Content and Settings" item.

Give your iPhone in order and make quality photos

The price of the used iPhone depends on how well it is preserved. If you carefully applied to the smartphone and burned it, then you have more chances to sell it at a more favorable price than the owners of scratched and marked specimens.

First of all, you need to clean the iPhone. Make sure you remove all surface pollution and removed all the dirt from the slots, holes and ports. Thoroughly wipe the screen before making photos so that they do not see the prints, divorces and dust, which can be taken for defects.

For a successful sale, you must convince the buyer in your honesty, and for this it is important as best to describe the condition of your iPhone. It is very important to make some high-quality pictures to show buyers that you sell your own iPhone, and in no case use the stock photos. Many simply misses lots and ads if they use photos from Apple's website or other demonstration pictures. Also, if there are the slightest scratches or dents on the housing or screen, be sure to describe them and show in the photo.

Find Original Accessories

If you have the original accessories and cables that were included, be sure to find them and attach them. If there is also a box - it will be generally great. In addition, as a bonus, you can add other accessories that were bought separately. Each of us accumulate covers, cases and other things that do not fit to the new models iPhone. (especially if you are updated with iPhone 5 / 5S). So throw everything into a bunch to sweeten the deal and quickly get rid of the old smartphone.

Exhibiting iPhone for sale

Now that preparation is completed, we can only sell the iPhone. On the Internet there are many places to help you find buyers and sell your old smartphone.

Bulletin boards, local sites

There are many popular sites that replaced ad newspaper. For Russia, it is "from hand to hand", AVITO; For Ukraine - OLX. In addition, there are local ads on urban portals that should not be forgotten if you live in big city. it a good option For those who do not want to contact the shipment.

All these portals have a similar structure and principles of operation. The admission of ads is almost always free (unless you exhibit 10 lots per day), all you need to do is to pass a simple registration procedure, lay out a photo of your iPhone, make a description and specify a phone or other contacts for communication. Select a photo better, do not forget about detailed description, specify your contacts and price.

It is easier to decide with the price if you see the proposals of other users by selecting a condition and package similar to your iPhone. It all depends on your desire to sell: if you do not rush, you can choose the average and above the average price, if you do not wait to quickly sell your old iPhone and buy a new one, you can slightly lower the price, making it more attractive among other offers.

Auctions

Auctions are more complicated way Sell \u200b\u200byour iPhone because you need to know and adhere to more rules, as well as due to the procedure for confirming the personality and the need to have a good reputation as a seller. Nevertheless, all these difficulties pay off with interest, because at auctions gadgets are sold on more high price. The reason for this is the very reputation that is formed from the reviews of your counterparties to which buyers pay attention. There are no ads on the portals, so people are ready to overpay a little at auction, but be confident that they are dealing with honest and trustworthy seller.

The most popular auctions in Russia and Ukraine are Molotok and Aukro, respectively. They are almost completely identical, since they are regional versions of the Polish auction of Allegro. In order to sell a lot, you need a registration (which is quite banal and should not cause any difficulties with you) and the verification of the account is very desirable. Since the reputation you will have zero, I advise not to neglect verification, as it will be at least some kind of guarantee of your trustiness.

Lot's posting is almost no different from the ads. Add photos, fill the necessary fields: description, category, condition, payment options and delivery options. There are many nuances in the auction, which the novice does not know and can make mistakes. Therefore, if you are unfamiliar with auctions, the first time you better choose the sale at a fixed price.

In the case of a successful sale, the platform will take a commission of several percent of the total value of the lot. You can pay for a multitude of methods, including e-payments, so there should be no problems.

Flea markets on special forums

Another option of sale is all sorts of forums "nearby" themes and gadgets in general. Each of them has a section "Flea market", which has a fairly wide audience. On the forums there are a lot of "competent" users who immediately expose any trick. It is unlikely to get to sell not the corresponding description of iPhone Or a smartphone at an inflated price - other members of the forum will immediately warn immediately.

The procedure for selling is similar to the ads and auction boards - create a topic, add photos and description to it and specify all the nuances of sales (payment, delivery, maniback). As for reputation and trust, the forums are much better than bulletin boards, and in this regard are closer to the auctions. Here users have the opportunity to raise or reduce reputation points and leave the comment at the same time. Thus, it is easy to calculate "threw", and in your own case (if you are a regulatory forum and have a positive rating) it will be an additional advantage of reputation.

Sale to someone from acquaintances and relatives

A good option to attach your old iPhone. Many people from our surroundings do not chase the latest innovations, and the fact that it is already outdated for you, it may still be possible to serve others. Here are the issues of trust and decency, since everyone knows each other perfectly. However, for the same reason, you can hardly sell your old iphone for a big price. Nevertheless, this is a great option for those who are too lazy to bother.

Trade-in when buying a new iPhone

Not the most profitable but fast and convenient way. You just pass your old iPhone to the store (at a low price, of course) and quit part of the value of new money revengeted. Pretty many outlets work according to such a scheme, so you can easily find them if we agree with the proposed conditions.

Well, that seems to be all. Now you know how to prepare and sell your iPhone. I hope this article will be useful for you when it will be necessary to sell outdated device. If you have something to add, do not hesitate to leave comments. And successful sales you!

I am a happy owner of the iPhone 6 with a 128 GB of Gold Color Memory. It was bought in November 2014 for 47,500 rubles. And it turned out to be a profitable purchase. A month later, the ruble exchange rate collapsed, the prices took off 2 times, and Apple's gadgets began to cost as a small spacecraft. Even now, the new iPhone 6 with such a memory is sold in stores from 40 thousand rubles. And although my phone works quite well (does not slow down and keeps the battery), like all the victims of Apple's brilliant marketing, I look at new models. Therefore, before the soon release of the new iPhone, I decided to check how much you can sell a used version. In total, I came to the head three ways to part with the phone.

Method 1: Exchange Old iPhone on New

Gadgets, like cars, can be exchanged according to the Trade-in system. Scheme is simple - you give the old smartphone and get a discount on a new one. Abroad, the Apple program for the exchange of phones has been working for several years. It took Russia only this summer. While the manufacturer has two official partners - Re: Store trading networks and "connected".

Official programs

To exchange the phone, it should approach several parameters:

• the model should be no lower than iPhone 4;
• the phone should be purchased from Apple's official representative in Russia (there is a list on the site);
• you need to remember your password to block the "Find iPhone" function.

Ideally, you need a check, but in the call center Re: Store said that it will be enough to remember the purchase time and the address of the store.

You can only rate the phone's cost in the network store. As they told on the phone, the seller inspects the phone, and then using a USB wire connects it to a special program. This program will analyze the state of the phone and give an accurate amount of compensation. According to the official representative of the "connected" Sergey Tikhonov, the size of the discount can reach several tens of thousands of rubles, depending on the model and modifying the iPhone. In general, the price is dynamic and can change daily.

Maybe I'm paranoid, but I don't like it when foreign people even touch my phone, not that the SIM card is getting out of it and paste the USB wire. Therefore, I decided to postpone the check in extreme. Moreover, in the call center of the second official partner, Re: Store did not speak about any USB-wire.

In Re: Store, all questions with prices are also solved exclusively offline. I went to the store, which was just on the way. But it was early to rejoice. It turned out that there is the same verification program (with the most USB-wire). To activate it, you need to pull the SIM card from the phone and disable iCloud. Sellers said that the maximum compensation for my model is 12 thousand rubles. Not so much. I remembered this option and decided to check if I did not find anything more profitable.

In addition to the official partners there are shops that by their will exchange iphone. It is both large networks and minor stores. For the experiment, I tried two options - a federal network and a store that first fell in the search for Google.

Its Trade-in is in Euroset. True, it acts not throughout Russia, but only in Moscow and the region, Yekaterinburg and the Sverdlovsk region, Saratov, Samara, Penza and Kirov.

This online store also has a exchange program. To find out the cost estimate, you need to apply, specifying the characteristics of the phone and its number. After that, you will call back from the store. I was called back in a couple of hours. The maximum price of my model is 17 thousand. So much will pay, if the phone is perfect condition. But again, at an accurate price, you must come to the office on the m. Bagration. It is not on the way to me, so I did not go.

Result: The amount of compensation is from 12,000 to 19 194 rubles.

Method 2: Sell to buy

The phone can be simply selling. I found at least two stores that accept the iPhone.

This is a commissions online store. To learn the advance price, you need to specify how much the same new model is worth it, and the degree of wear of your smartphone.

In my case, the preliminary price was 20,934 rubles. But as you have already guessed, you need to go with legs at the exact price.

Another option is to set your price and transfer the phone for sale. The store will take 10% of it every month until the phone is selling.

In this online store to standard questions about the phone, please specify serial number. After filling the questionnaire comes SMS with the price for which the store will buy your phone. My - for 13 050 rubles.

Result: from 13 050 to 20,934 rubles.

Method 3: Independent Sale

The easiest option is to offer you a phone with your acquaintances. You can simply ask for friends or post an ad on pages in social networks. But since I do not like to mix friendship and financial relations, I went to Avito and Yula online flea markets.

Before placing the ad, I studied what competitors offer. On Yule - original phones It was worth 16,500 to 26,900 (depending on the state), Avito - from 12,000 to 20,000.

In general, the last experience of using Internet flea market shows that it is possible to quickly sell only if your price is at least 50% lower than the cost new version. But 20 thousand I can get for Trade-in, so I decided to raise the price more - 25,000 thousand rubles.

Announcements looked sluggish, but the next day after their publication in Whatsapp came a message from a girl who became interested in the phone. She had no questions about his condition, but there was an unusual request.

I am not supergregated in technologies, but this offer immediately alert. And not in vain. Google suggested that this is a new divorce. You enter someone else's icloud, and at this time the fraudster blocks your phone. To unlock, you need to translate the ransom on the card.

It turns out that even existed iPhone Robins of Houds. They come under password fraudsters and quickly unlock accounts of anyone who has become a victim of this scheme.

I was afraid to risk and just blocked the fraudster in the messenger. And at the same time removed ads from sites.

Result: almost robbed.

conclusions

As a result, the most profitable pricewhich I found for the iPhone 6 turned out to be more than two times lower than the initial cost. These are about 20 thousand rubles, which can be reserved for Trade-in or from buyers. To buy at least an iPhone 7 with the same memory (I need a lot of memory), you will have to add another 20 thousand. In general, this is a profitable deal, but I did not dare to it. Therefore, I will walk with my iPhosha, until he denies at all.

How to sell an iPhone and do not regret

It is necessary to buy XR for something

Soon will be released new iPhone. Now there will be two interesting things.

The first - now you can buy previous models of iPhones from hand in good condition and at a highly reduced price. On how to buy iPhones from the hands, we already wrote -.

Second - yours old iPhone Now you can sell, and there is a satisfied buyer. I called the former Commander of the McCradar site Sasha Markfe and asked him how to sell an iPhone. Sasha two years wrote about iPhones and knows about them everything you need to know the Russian person.

Maxim Ilyajov

What is in this complex? Posted an ad, sold

There are nuances: you can run into scammers who grind with money. You can get on the hard barg. You can lose personal data or to let the villains in Aiklaud. The probability of this is low, but we are not high and not needed - in life enough to run into the iPhone scammers once.

Okay, Google. Where to begin?

Make a backup of the phone in Iytyuns. Preferably - on the wire, so faster. Make sure your phone is tied to the "Iklaude" - contacts and notes will be saved.

For paranoids: Save your favorite photos somewhere in the cloud: in "Dropbox", to Yandex disk or wherever you usually store documents. Everyone can not save directly, but the most beloved and important are better to save.

Saved. What's next?

Will erase your fingerprints, if you used the "touch idy". Go to the settings - Touch ID - fingerprints and delete all saved prints.

In a good way, now you need to completely erase the iPhone: settings - basic - reset - reset the contents and settings. Inefon will recover to almost the factory condition and will quit from your Epl Iird. But I advise it to do it directly before selling the phone, when the buyer has already gone to you.

How to prepare a phone for sale?

Find the box, checks and all wires, chargers and headphones that have had when you buy. The more complete the kit you collect, the more expensive you can sell.

From the headphones, get the ear sulfur. Wires wipe with a damp cloth. If dust or dirt remained in the dynamics of iPhona - carefully remove it with an unnecessary dry toothbrush. Just do not push the dirt inside, but take it.

How to photograph for ads?

Nobody expects professional photography from you on Avito from you, so do not bother. But do something after all.

Wipe the phone with a cloth, remove the divorces, put on a flat homogeneous surface - on the table or sheet. It is better to take pictures in daylight, but if there is no possibility - just turn on as much light as possible. In our case, the iPhone is photographed at the light of the lamp.

On Avito, you can download five photos of goods. In ordinary life, there is enough single angle on the face, but I recommend to do five:

1. Aphon's face with a view of one of the connectors (for example, on a charging socket).
2. Rear overlooking another connector (for example, on the headphone socket).
3. Person with the on-screen screen. Place the screen brightness by 70-80% so that your camera is easier to configure the brightness of the picture.
4. Close-up of the Hell's Defect itself - scratches, cracks, scuffs. If this is not - close-up On the apple.
5. Empty kit with all documents. If you are hipsor, you can add everything neatly on the oak cut or on the concrete block. But do so that the background does not distract, and small details on it are not lost. If you are accumulated, do everything on a sheet of paper. If somewhere there is a sheet of Watman - take it.

That's what happened in my five minutes at the light of the lamp on the sheet of Watman:

What to write in the ad?

In the header, write a model, memory, color, origin and year. In the description - the state, complete set and where you bought an iPhone if you bought a new one. If you do not want to spend time on wanting to exchange, add "Exchange not to offer." For example, so:

• IPhone 6 16 GB, White, Rostt, 2015
• Full set: box, charger, headphones, cable, check. Purchased in the official store in Spain in June 2016. Exchange does not offer.

If you have bumpers, covers or docks, offer them as a gift, but not complete. When they are included, the buyer can refuse them and ask for this discount. When they are as a gift, you will not ask the discount.

If you bought a recovered iPhone, write. Pedigree iphone is easy to check: if you have an experienced buyer, he can catch you on deception, and from here not far to the discount.

Do not write "Urgent" and "Torg is appropriate"

Do not write the selling text and the emotional definition of the type "I give a friend" or "your faithful satellite" - everyone does not care about it. IPhone is not a wedding dress (but it can become his reason).

What price to put?

Find at Avito the same iPhone in the same configuration and add 5-10% to the bargaining price.

For example, on September 9, the sixth iPhone of 64 GB in Moscow in the full configuration sold for 30-35 thousand. So, you need to put the price of 36 thousand and be ready to throw up to 32 thousand.

Difference on Avito announcements of private traders and dealers. Disturbers are darkness: they sell chinese iPhones For 9 thousand, rigidly dumping and fool with prices. For example, the announcement will be written "24 thousand", and it turns out that this is the price of any ancient fifth iPhone. Therefore, compare only with private affairs.

Compare only with private affairs

Odashchikov has ideal licked photos of the iPhone from the site. They offer iPhons different models and memory volumes. For private owners one phone and home photos.

The higher the price, the longer you will sell. This does not mean that you need to throw off the price - just keep in mind.

Pay for the announcement?

Not necessary. IPhones are sold quickly, the demand is big. If you have a complete set and a normal price, then in a large city you sell it in 2-3 days, in the city of smaller - in 1-3 weeks.

If you are in Moscow, and your iPhone is not for sale for a week, lower the price of 1-2 thousand. If not saved during this time - then you can pay and raise it in the search. But most often you will start writing and call on the first day.

Buyers are traded. What to do?

Be prepared to give a discount, but not just so, but for something. The easiest option is to throw 2-3 thousand for the fact that the person will arrive at your iPhone today and where you are comfortable.

Be polite, but hard. "Want a discount - come to me today in Bibirevo. It is inconvenient to come - no problem, but then without a discount. And call in advance, suddenly someone will already have to buy an iPhone earlier. "

What to do before meeting with the buyer?

Charge the phone and check the package.

Where is the best selling?

The best option is in a public place not far from the ATM, which takes money. Take with you an impressive view of a friend. Everyone must have an impressive view of a friend.

How to take money?

There are two options to get money: translating card or cash. Both have cons.

Transfer to the card as a whole is safe, if this is a translation from the card to the card and you immediately got money. Most banks will not take it to cancel. And if the fraudster blames you that you illegally wrote down money from him, the bank will start a long and serious proceeding, which fraudsters do not usually do not want. But this is only generally. In life, many subtleties:

1. Money on the card can not do immediately, especially if this is a translation from the "Visa" to "mastercard" or vice versa. Even worse - if this is a translation between different banks and from a high-end map of the "visa" type on a low-class map of the Maestro type: such payments can occupy the day, and two, and five. The fraudster can say that the money sent, you just need to wait for the receipt. And it may even show you a screenshot from the Internet Bank. And all this may be fake
2. If the money is not transferred from the card to the card, but the interbank translation, then most often such a translation can be withdrawn on the same day until he fell into processing. The fraudster shows you a bank adopted by the bank, then after half an hour calls the bank, recalls the payment, and you will not see money.
3. The fraudster can imitate the receipt of money. For example, send you SMS as if from Tinkoff Bank, but in fact - from fraudsters. Be sure to check your account balance in the Internet bank before giving an iPhone.

Cash is easy to fake. If you do not work in polygraphist or cashier, you will not be able to distinguish fake money to the eye. You can protect yourself from fakes in two ways:

1. Together with the buyer, go to an ATM with a bill acceptor and try to enroll this money to himself. If everything is OK - give the phone. If the ATM did not accept some banknotes - ask the buyer to replace them. The terminal of receiving payments type "Kiwi" is also suitable, but there is a limit on the reception of money - no more than 15 thousand at a time and one bill.
2. Ask to bring the amount with small bills - 100 or 500 rubles. Professional counterfeiters are not engaged in fake such trifles - it is unprofitable. And if your buyer prints money on the printer, you will understand this.

With money somehow climbing. It seems that they are fake. What to do?

If you doubt - do not make a deal. Do not give the phone. Do not untie it from your "Epl-Iyi." Take a rule: doubt money - do not take it.

Ask the buyer to search for other bills: "These are some suspicious."

If your interlocutor starts putting on honesty or cause a feeling of guilt, say this:

"Just my dad in the prosecutor's office is engaged in economic crimes. And he says to me that if the money is suspicious - it is better to double-check. If you want, you can leave these, and these replace when it is convenient. "

If you fell on a professional fraudster, it is better to retreat at this moment: even if you are bluffing, you are clearly not a sucker. And your impressive view of each other.

What is exactly impossible to do when selling?

It is absolutely impossible to report to the buyer no codes from SMS, such as "need to confirm the translation that is really you." So you are not only licking the phone, but also lose money.

Do not go to the meeting where the buyer invites you. Even if he offers you a surcharge for delivery. Most likely, he is waiting for you with a mount.

Do not agree to the discount for buying a phone without a box or headphones. You, of course, sell the box, and headphones are not a fact. And it will take extra time and effort. Why just punish yourself?

Do not call IMEI or serial phone number before selling. The attacker can record it in the base of the stolen and articulate your phone on this database during the transaction. And demand a discount.
