Best Buy Takes Trades: Tip-of-the-Day #126


GET NEW STUFF FOR YOUR OLD STUFF AT BEST BUY

At Best Buy Trade In you can trade in "gently used" electronics, including iPods, digital cameras and digital camcorders, for a Best Buy gift card to use towards any purchase at Best Buy!

It's pretty simple. Just follow these four steps to trade in your equipment:

Step 1 - Use the Best Buy Estimator to receive an instant estimate of your trade-in value.

Step 2 - If the value is acceptable to you, register with the Best Buy Trade-In Center.

Step 3 - Complete the transaction, print a prepaid shipping label and ship your items to the Best Buy trade-in center.

Step 4 - A Best Buy gift card will be mailed about 7 to 14 days after receipt of your item.

I love the concept. And, if you're someone who doesn't like the process of listing and selling old electronics on eBay/Craigslist, you've got a sure thing here (given your trade in isn't too outdated). I just went on there to see what I could get for my Palm Tungsten and my Sprint Samsung Instinct. The Palm Tungsten brought me nada - likely because it's 8 years old and in technology years that's the equivalent of a stone tablet. However, the Instinct got $84 which was $34 more than Sprint was offering me using their buyback program. Net net: worth checking out.
