BILLERICA, Mass., Nov 17, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) —
NextWorth (
www.nextworth.com ),
a leader in consumer electronics upgrades and trade-ins, is helping
consumers take advantage of potential iPod(TM) resale values by giving a 10
percent bonus payout for all iPod trade-ins through the holidays. The
special 10 percent bonus value is available for any model iPod traded in
now through December 31st with the promotion code “ELF.”
Using Apple iPod sales data and looking across product release dates,
NextWorth estimates approximately five billion dollars worth of trade-in
value across the huge number of Nano, Touch and Classic iPod models in
circulation. Consumers currently only take advantage of about two
percent of this value.
“With advances in iPhones(TM) and iPads(TM), there hasn’t been much excitement
in the iPod category recently,” said Jeff Trachsel, CMO of NextWorth.
“There’s a large amount of untapped trade-in value for unused iPods, and
we want to inform people so they can take advantage of it.”
Trade-in values are determined based on the condition of each device
received. Heavy dents or scratches will lessen the value of devices, but
estimated values for iPods in “good” condition, before the 10 percent
bonus payout, are:
iPod Touch: Up to $135 iPod Classic: Up to $65 iPod Nano: Up
to $61
To get started, visit
www.nextworth.com ,
select the appropriate iPod model and answer a few questions about its
condition. When prompted during the checkout process, enter promotion
code “ELF” to receive the additional 10 percent bonus value for your
trade.
NextWorth offers free, fully-insured UPS shipping service to all online
customers, and customers have the choice of cash or a gift card for
trading in.
