To combat steadily declining trade-in values for existing iPhone models, NextWorth (
), is extending a price lock guarantee for iPhone trade-ins at Target Mobile locations nationwide.
Through November 5, customers can go to 1,470 Target retail locations nationwide and get a guaranteed trade-in value for their old iPhone model. Values are based on used iPhones in good working order, rather than phones in excellent or flawless condition, so the vast majority of people will qualify for the following values:
iPhone 4 (any): $200
iPhone 3GS (any): $125
iPhone 3G (any): $75
NextWorth values through Target are higher than any other in-store trade-in programs, offering enough to completely subsidize the cost of an upgrade from the iPhone 4 to a 4S. However, no purchase is necessary to receive the prices above.
Through NextWorth, Target also accepts the following items for trade-in, which will be evaluated on-site for an immediate value quote: iPods, iPads, Cell Phones, Video Games, Game Consoles, DVDs and Calculators. Customers can find a nearby participating Target retailer by visiting
