NextWorth Guarantees $200 for iPhone 4 Trade-Ins

Until October 24^th, NextWorth guarantees $200 for 16GB and 32GB AT&T iPhone™ 4 models in good condition

BILLERICA, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NextWorth (www.nextworth.com), a leader in consumer electronics upgrades and trade-ins, continues to help consumers upgrade to the iPhone™ 4S for free by guaranteeing a $200 trade-in value for a full week. Through Monday, October 24^th, consumers trading in a 16GB or 32GB iPhone™ 4 can lock in a $200 value. With all quotes valid for 21 days, consumers have enough time to buy their new phone before sending their old one to NextWorth.

“In fact, we removed the 'like new' category earlier this year because only 0.5% of all iPhone trades we received met those standards.”

After the availability of the iPhone 4S last Friday, NextWorth is raising trade-in values while others are steadily decreasing. Consumers are urged to check with their carrier to see if they are eligible for an upgrade. Many may be able to upgrade for free, as the cost of upgrading to an iPhone 4S is $199, lower than the guaranteed trade-in value for an iPhone 4.

“We are seeing trade-in values decline as expected, but with the positive buzz around the iPhone 4S launch we wanted to give people a final chance to upgrade for free,” said Jeff Trachsel, CMO of NextWorth.

Currently, the estimated wait time for a new iPhone 4S is one to two weeks. Trading in this week from NextWorth.com locks in the $200 value for 21 days, giving people time to receive their new phone before sending in the old phone.

To qualify for the $200 guarantee, the 16GB or 32GB iPhone 4 must be in good working condition with no heavy scratches or cracks. Well-used iPhones are encouraged for trade-in.

“NextWorth doesn’t expect phones to be flawless when we receive them,” added Trachsel. “In fact, we removed the 'like new' category earlier this year because only 0.5% of all iPhone trades we received met those standards.”

To get started, simply go to www.nextworth.com, select the appropriate iPhone 4 and answer a few questions about its condition. NextWorth offers free, fully-insured UPS shipping service to all online customers, and customers have the choice of cash or a gift card when they trade in.
