Things can get pretty tight around Christmas, especially with six kids to shop for. While it may feel like it's a bit late in the year to make extra money, I remembered that I had a whole drawer full of unused smartphones to get rid of. Instead of just recycling them, I was asked to partner with TradeMore to try out their service.
I had a Samsung Galaxy 5S that I loved, but wasn't connected to a service. Instead of just having it collect dust (or occasionally play games on it), it looked at how much I could get with the TradeMore service.
Turns out, my phone could fetch up to $55, and I could make some room in my junk drawer.
I used their easy website to figure out what I could get for my phone.
Since my phone was getting a bit warm with the last use, they recommended that I return my phone without my battery. I was still able to get the same good price on it as I would with the battery.
After my request was submitted, I waited. A return label and padded envelop arrived in the mail a few days later. I got complete instructions for backing up my phone data and resetting my phone to clear off all private information. I removed the battery, put the phone in the padded envelope. I added the prepaid mailing label and called for a pickup from my delivery driver.
My phone is now on the way. I can check on the status of my trade at any time using their website, and I should get my digital MasterCard Debit Card soon! I'm excited to get something for my old phone, which was just sitting around anyway. I can use the money from this TradeMore transaction to treat our family to a nice meal or buy a couple of presents for under the tree!
TradeMore is earning a great reputation for providing competitive prices on a variety of products -- not just smartphones. They also buy select tablets and wearables.
