There are lots of different questions that folk have when they first look into selling their mobile phone for cash.  This text is going to hopefully answer a few of the commonest questions for you. 

My phone is damaged, am I able to still sell it for cash? 

Most phone recycling corporations will accept damaged phones, but you should be prepared that you will get a hugely reduced price.  In a number of cases if your phone isn't working you'll only get ten percent of the quoted price which may mean that it is not worth the time to sell it and you are better off just recycling it freely. 

How is a broken phone defined? 

When you try and get cash for old mobiles, different corporations will have different definitions of what a damaged phone basically is.  If your phone has a large amount of water damage or is physically broken in 2 then you probably won't be in a position to get any money for it.  On the other hand, if you've a phone that's in good physical condition yet won't boot up to the start screen you will still be able to sell it for a lowered cost. 

How much do I get when I sell my mobile? 

This is dependent upon a large amount of different factors like the type phone that you are attempting to sell as well as what condition it was in.  When you sell your mobile phone for cash remember that there is a range of prices so it is sometimes a great idea to search around for the best deals. 

Can I sell new phones? 

Most companies won't give you a bigger price for a new phone making it not worth your time to sell it.  However , you'll be able to find certain firms that may give you a keener price if you are selling a new phone that's still in perfect condition.  If this is the case though then you most likely shouldn't sell it to phone recycling company but instead somewhere such as eBay. 

How long does it take? 

Again, this depends upon the company that you select although the quantity of time it generally takes for a phone to be checked by a company and then either returned to you or accepted is roughly a week.  You need to then have the money with you just after that.  Most firms will provide a guideline of how long they generally take to get the money to you on their website.
