    iPad Pro Trade in value for IPad Pro 10.5 with white spot?

    I have a 10.5 iPad pro with the dreaded white spot issue. I didn’t notice it in time- frankly I was oblivious it was even an issue. Has anyone tried to trade in an iPad like this? I am thinking about upgrading, but if I don’t get a decent trade in value I’ll just hold on to it a while longer.

    Trade-In Value at Apple - LOL!

    So, I thought I'd have a quick look to see what Apple would offer in terms of a trade-in value for my 2017 15" MacBook Pro 2.9Ghz i7, 512GB SSD and 16GB RAM, perfect condition. Purchased for £2399 in 2017. Now, don't get me wrong, I know trade in offers are never very good but I was astonished...

    I have a late 2014 27” 5k iMac with the 1TB fusion drive and I upgraded it myself to 24 GB of RAM. I’m looking to switch to a new 2019 MacBook Pro. I’m considering using the official Apple trade in service and just sending in my iMac rather than trying to sell it privately, but I’m unsure if...

    So I have the iPhone XS Max with AT&T, paying monthly for the phone (AT&T Next Every Year) plan. As of right now I owe $87.20 on the phone, then I can trade in and upgrade early.

    Apple Recycle Program Questions

    (This is in USA) I sent a 2013 iMac back to Apple's recycling agent when I purchased a new iMac, expecting to eventually get a credit on my purchase. FedEx says it arrived on June 12. I have no email acknowledging receipt by the agent. I certainly understand it will take the agent some time...

    I'm on the IUP and am trading in my iPhone 7 via the mail in kit. Problem is the phone has a cracked screen.
