Don’t have Ebay. Would cex be the best place?
Apple trade in.

I usually sell my phones MusicMagpie - they’ve always seemed to offer a fair price and the money comes through quickly.
Checked mazuma. I’d get about £20 more at CEX however I’m guessing I’d have to wait around whilst they test it to check it works etc.
Check with mobile networks aswell
Musicmagpie and Samsung Recycle have always given me the best prices when trading in my old phones.
Hey thanks for the reply
My iPhone 7 has a faulty NFC so I’ll keep a hold of that for a back up. But my iPhone SE is in perfect working order and that’s the one I’d sell
Music magpie usually offer a decent price.
Rather just take it to CEX.
Do they test the NFC on all the phones they sell ?
I’ll only trade in the fully working iPhone SE
@Venomx I’ve always found that great photography, a clear description and dealing on Gumtree to be the best way.
Don’t negotiate on price until the person attends to view the item. Deal in person and deal in cash.
I’ve always had the most success this way.
Of course, in the current COVID times, this may not be the most appropriate.

I’m in talks with apple at the moment to see if they can fix my iPhone 7. Make more sense to get it fixed and sell the 7 and keep the SE
My concern is that apple already ran a remote diagnostic test and said the " contactless sensor " is working when it definitely isn’t
@N26throwaway I checked apples trade in site and I don’t think you get cash for it, just discount off another iPhone
I’ve always sold anything I no longer want privately on apps like Gumtree or Shpock. Once you’re past the initial few hagglers then you can find a buyer and get a significant amount more than going to CeX,
I just get concerned some dodgy geezer will show up
Also is it secure to sell a phone you once use? Wouldn’t want anyone getting my passwords or family contact details. Maybe my paranoia but getting second thoughts about giving someone else my old phone
What do you think CEX will do with your phone?
They don’t use them as bait for fish, they sell them again.

Identity theft If it goes in the wrong hands
eBay is best place
In general, yes. Specifically for iPhones, as long as you sign out of all the iCloud bits and bobs and do what it says to do here, you’ll be fine.

No it isn’t.
Think I’ll give it a miss . Not risking some hacker getting my families details
