Are you looking to sell your old phone? A Google Pixel can sell remarkably well on the second-hand market. Here's some tips from the Gizmogo team to help you get the best bang for your buck.
What To Do Before Selling Google Pixel
So you want to sell your phone? Let's clean the house a little before you rush to list it. Here's 4 key things to do before you sell your phone.
Protect Privacy
Do you live on your phone? We have an outstanding amount of personal data on our phones and you need to make sure the buyer doesn't get their hands on any of it. There's more than just a factory reset to remember. First take off all ‘find my phone' services, linked apps (like banking), and remove all data storage cards.
Assess Condition
What condition is your device in? There's a lot of difference between a barely-used nearly-new phone and one that's been dented and scratched. Go through the device and note the imperfections. This also helps you avoid scammers trying to claim extra damage later.
Find Original Packaging & Accessories
You can sell your phone as is, but if you happen to have boxes, manuals, and accessories, you'll get a better price for it. Remember, the easier and more attractive the deal for the purchaser, the cleaner the sale will be and the higher the price you can ask.
Take Photos
Good photos will cut down on a lot of stupid questions, as well as help legitimate buyers find you trustworthy. We always suggest a photo of the back, screen, and sides to show no warping and the condition of the screen. Add pictures of accessories or other notable features.
Decide Where To Sell Your Google Pixel
Now you know how to sell your Google Pixel, let's look at the two most common ways to move your gadget on to its new home and get that cash into your pocket.
Sell Google Pixel In-Person
If you were thinking of Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist, you are going to have to meet up in person, even though you can do most of the process to sell your Google Pixel online. Once you have a suitable buyer through the site, we urge you to always stay safe. Remember to meet up somewhere away from home. Many police stations now allow trading spaces for this reason. Or pick a coffee shop. And always accept cash-only from strangers to avoid scams.Do be aware that matching with a good buyer won't be seamless. You might have to answer questions, field sob stories, and deal with some bartering attempts before you find the right person.
Sell Google Pixel Online
Not in the mood for that? You can also sell your Google Pixel through a second-hand electronics online buying service. These offer far faster turnarounds, and typically offer less hassle, too. Typically, you get a quote based on the device's stats and condition, give it a yay or nay, and you're done.
