In celebration of Heart Month, Apple is offering all customers who trade in an Apple Watch $25 extra in credit to encourage owners of older Apple Watch models to upgrade to one of the newer models.
Heart Month is celebrated during February, and Apple this week shared some of the ways it's celebrating across its services.
The $25 Apple Watch trade-in credit is valid until February 28 in the US, Canada, the UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, and the UAE. Apple allows customers to trade in Apple Watch models from Series 1 through Series 6, including the Apple Watch SE. More information on Apple's trade-in program can be found on its website.
Swappa is one of the safest places to buy and sell without question.eBay is as well
Safest? There’s no such thing when you’re dealing/selling/buying with digital strangers on the Internet that you’ve never met and not knowing what their intentions are. You take a risk at any time when conducting transactions involving finances.
Again, I’ll take Apples ‘really weak trade-in’ for the Watch, plus the added $25 -versus- having to deal with the risks. I don’t care about making top dollar for my Apple products with resale, maybe you do.
I’ll take the really ‘weak’ trade-in + the additional $25.00 -versus- dealing with shady scammers on Swappa and eBay.
Lol ok. Swappa is one of the safest places to buy and sell without question. eBay is as well if you know what you are doing.
But if thinking that makes it easier for you to give your items back to Apple for a fraction of what they could sell for then by all means, have at it.

Sold my Late 2014 Mac Mini 16GB Ram on eBay a few weeks ago for £245.
After fees and shipping I made £215…
Apple's offer to me for the same Mac? £60 gift card I can only spend at Apple. ?
But if thinking that makes it easier for you to give your items back to Apple for a fraction of what they could sell for then by all means, have at it.
