Keep your old device and NEVER trade it in with Apple.

Sell it. - Donate it (it’s worth more in a tax write-off than any cash or credit you receive). Repurpose it.

Apple should just drop this programme if they are not going to offer reasonable prices. The bad PR they get from giving customers derisory offers surely outweighs any benefits?

Tim Apple is presently in the corner with a devilish grin, slowly tapping his fingers together like Mr. Burns.
