How can I sell my smartphone



Dear Ashton,
How do i sell my smartphone? It’s my first time selling a smartphone because I’m looking for an upgrade. It’s an iPhone 4 and I’m thinking of buying something new.

I want to sell my smartphone for an Android-powered one. It feels like an excellent alternative for me. I’m anxious to try it out and see what the buzz is all about. I’ve read that it does things in a different way from what Apple does.

But going back to my original problem, I’m looking for ways on how to sell my smartphone. It’s my first time selling and I want to have a few direct tips from an experienced technological correspondent like you. Your wisdom will be tremendously valued.

Dear Subscriber,

Selling your smartphone is a simple thing to do. It doesn’t need much effort, but you will have to put in a little work. Putting up the right advertisement and getting out there to reach the public is something you should do. Afterwards, all you have to do is look for a promising buyer and you can finish the sale.

Prior to looking for some places where you can sell your smartphone, you need to prepare the unit itself for selling. Here are some things you should do before you sell it.

1. Gather everything you have that’s related to the smartphone. That means the earphones, the battery charger, and the manual and other particulars like the receipts. If you have the original box with you, that’s excellent too. Some potential buyers are very picky and they want to buy everything it came with. Displaying the actual receipt is also proof of the age of the phone.

2. List the features of the smartphone. That way, when potential buyers see your phone, they’ll know what it can do. To make your life easier, just do some research on the Internet and you can use that to make your advertisement.

3. Take photos of the mobile phone. If you’re advertising it online, you must present pictures of the phone. That way, potential buyers are sure that the sale is real and they’re not running into a con. If possible, include a video clip of you using the phone to get a perspective on the condition of the phone too.

4. When putting up pictures, indicate where the scratches and marks are, in case there happens to be any. That way, you can justify the price that you’re requesting. You also won’t get into heated fights with buyers who think your price is too high for the condition of the phone.

5. To get an idea of your selling price, look online at additional discussion boards too. If you see a phone that has the same model and condition as your own, you can price it like that.

Next, here are some spots where you can sell your iPhone 4.

1. The first place you should try selling your smartphone is social networking sites. Facebook and Twitter are great sites because your friends already know who you are. They have confidence in you and that the sale is reputable. This option should be considered first before going into an online marketplace. Usually, the deals here happen faster, since there’s usually some friend that’s going to want your things.

2. You can also try out your luck at online marketplaces. Websites like eBay are a favorite choice for selling things. You can also auction your mobile phone to see if the price goes up higher than what you initially sought.

Online marketplaces can also give you a good status. For example, when other customers have transacted with you, they can share with various other users that you are an excellent person to deal with. So if you happen to sell off more things on the internet, you’re sure to have an instant buyer.

3. Last, you can publish fliers all over your neighborhood or nearby stores. Normally, it’s alright with them to put posters and fliers about your advertisement. Just make certain you adhere to their posting guidelines.

So there you have it. Some tips on how and where to sell your smartphone. Just don’t count on your phone to sell within the next day. Buyers are generally afraid to transact with newcomers in online selling. Best of luck!
