  • B) If there are some battery issues, like your iPhone doesn’t charge or doesn’t run proper battery. Its better to stick to No. Or if it doesn’t have these problems, just look back and pin Yes.
  • C) If the iPhone is scuffed, have some wear and tear, had water damage. Its better to avoid saying Yes. Otherwise, we’re cool.

  4. Hi Aman,

    This is a great deal from Apple. My sister is just waiting to get her hands to the new iPhone from Apple. I am sure she will be glad to part with her existing one for this great deal. Will share this with her and some of my friends who are just freaking out with the Apple gadgets.

  6. Apple is not only preparing to launch iPhone 5 but is indirectly trying to keep its customers hooked. The company does not only believe in selling new products but is also taking initiative to buy old products from its customers and exchanging them with any new product. Isn’t the idea just WOW. No third party in between, its all between you and Apple. The blog gives you a tutorial on how to sell your old iPhone back to Apple and get it exchanged with any other Apple product of your choice. What else does a customer want?

  7. That was really great deal! Now Apple fans can afford for every upcoming iPhones. But it seems weird that selling their own product to them itself :/. Moreover, this is an awesome way to increase sales.

  10. Well, this sounds actually very much fascinating but may be it is not that easy. There would surely be some hidden conditions or terms which we are unknown to. Apple is taking a big step in order to launch and promote its Iphone 5 and will not be ready to take up any losses.
