How to get the highest payout for your broken phone?
So you’re about ready to dump your old phone for a new one.
The next step is figuring out what to do with your old phone. You can easily keep it around as a spare in the bedroom drawer with all the other electronics, or pass it on to a friend or family member. Or, you could sell it at gizmogo.com to get the highest payout for your used phone.
Don’t stress if your phone is cracked or damaged; you’d be surprised how much you can get for the right phone with a broken screen. And even if you can’t get any cash for your dusty old cell phone, you can at least recycle it responsibly at gizmogo.
Any way you look at it, you probably won’t get enough from a single sale to cover the cost of a new phone, especially one as sky-high as the iPhone 11 ($1099 at Amazon),but if you’re smart about it, you can at least reduce the price of that new phone at gizmogo.com.
The amount of cash you can get for a phone varies widely by the model, age and condition. Online trade-ins usually top out at around $300 or $500 for a top-of-the-line device, but a brand new iPhone 11 could go for considerably more — that’s between you and your online buyer (on gizmogo at the time of writing, prices range from $320 to over $945).
You get more money if the phone is:
1. In good condition.
2. “New”, about 1 to 2 years old.
3. A premium device (rather than budget).
4. Popular. iPhones and Samsung phones are in high demand.
5. A popular color (black or silver might net more than gold).
You won’t be able to sell your used phones that are still being financed through a carrier.

Before you sell, raid the closet
