There's Gold in That Old Cell Phone!

We all know how fast tech devices seem to age. But don’t just chuck them out. There is a market for older cell phones, tablet, laptops and the like.

Online sites like uSell and Gazelle will buy your items, saving you the trouble of finding a buyer. Best Buy, Apply and Target will exchange your old devices for gift cards. Other sites like Swappa and Glyde will let you list old items for sale for a percentage of the sale price.

While newer and better conditioned items will fetch higher prices, there are buyers out there for older and somewhat damaged goods as well.

But remember! Make sure you wipe the device of any personal information before you sell it!
