They’ve now chopped two hundred pounds off a 15 Pro 256GB on Amazon. They seem to be getting desperate to shift the 15 models on there now as they are all seeing reductions across the board. The amount of reduction seems to vary with the colour option which is a bit odd.
Got a tip for us?

With around 70 days (give or take) or so to go until the iPhone 16 lineup is announced the thoughts are already creeping in about what to do this year about trade ins.
I'm reluctant to use MusicMagpie again as I feel they've gone to the dogs with their new grading system making it more difficult to get a decent price and any phone that's not pristinely perfect being downgraded to Good. That and the kiosk fee which I think was £30 for me last year.
MM's 'Good' price is £546 which, after the kiosk fee, would be £516 which I think is pretty pathetic for a 1TB 15 Pro in good condition.
Anyone got any thoughts or ideas their end? UR.co.uk has a good price of £863 but state "Light wear and tear acceptable – No cracks, scratches or chips visible from 30cm" so it would depend how strict they are on that. Is that visible from 30cm under a flood light or in normal ambient conditions?
I'm getting too old for all this 🤣

I used ur last year. Was a good service and paid out on time no issues!
People who do this, are you buying the original phone outright or settling a contract with Apple? In which order do you do things? Contemplating getting a 16 Pro and then a 17 Pro the following year if it’s a redesign. My iPhone 11 is too unbearable to wait another year.
Think I will use https://www.mozillion.com/ sold a few phones with them and been such a smooth process
You can just use the sell now option or place a price and wait for it sell. Once it’s sold you ship straight away. I get Royal Mail to collect it and it’s there next day. They pay tracked 24
Thanks for the heads-up. A good suggested price for my 12Pro which is in excellent condition (86%; case; screen protector). Now have to decide whether to use that for a 15Pro in the upcoming sale week or wait on the 16Pro
Sure but the chances of something going wrong is very low. I’ve sold 4-5 phones with them and never had any issue but if people are concerned they can just take it to the post office and pay like £8 extra
So I’m wanting to upgrade my 14 pro to a 16 pro this year and have been looking on the trade in sites. What the heck has happened? Now they have differing levels of grading? Before a small scratch on the screen made no difference, now it seems it’s the difference between a few hundred quid.
i know eBay is an option, but I recently sold my old iPad on it and it was very stressful so not looking to do that again. But looking at Apple their trade in prices seem to have gone up! Do they mark down very often?

Yes was looking at those prices this morning. I’m currently on an 8+ (!) and was going to get a 16 this year.
But £989 for a 15 pro max is a very compelling proposition…
I tend to hang on to my phones but can’t see id be losing out much on a 15 pro vs a 16…
True, but it’s not that hard to just roll it back to the last official firmware.
so quiet here! people getting ready for September?
