Fuck me in particular I guess? My currently owned phones are… LG G6 and Pixel 5a 5g

The trade in is off the table then…

    Every time I’ve looked into doing a trade-in they were only giving like 1/2 the market value of the phone, so I would just end up selling it using my fake account on facefuck marketplace locally.

    I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be seeing. What phones are missing from the list?

          That’s fucking strange, I’m going to have to check again…

          Update: Nope Is this a regional thing or is this just a case of fuck me in particular? Lol

          Update, Update:

          I’ll just get it on tick somewhere else and keep my old phones. lol

            Yeah, that is weird, and more differences… I only have a list of 5 LG phones to choose from.

              G8 ThinQ makes sense, as one of the rare LG phone users they never released the G8 ThinQ here or I’d have bought it. RIP LG phones

      I’d do fleabay as a last resort, because they take stupid fees now. Much better off selling it on fb or craigslist or another place without fees. I sold a phone last year on fleabay, look at the fees, 20%, $30 in taxes and fees on a $150 phone.

        Yeah I’ve had problems with them too. I tried selling an older graphics card I had on there back when GPUs were harder to come by. I posted it with pictures and everything but like a few minutes after I listed it I was immediately banned with no way to appeal. Ended up just selling it on Craigslist instead for probably more then I would have made in the end with ebay.

        I found this one out the hard way too a few years back. I sold an instrument for like $1600 and never checked how much the selling fee would be, then after I withdrew the money my bank account got overdrafted because the next week ebay took ~$250 that I didn’t have in it. Last time I ever sold something on that site

        Non eBay user here. When they say shipping label, I assume that also means you’re paying for the actual shipping right?

      I like the A variants, I like pixels but don’t care so much about the bigger phones. I just like a phone that works, I never usually upgrade that often just whenever I feel like I need too

    If you wait, the Google store/Google Fi occasionally do really good trade-in offers. Earlier this year I traded in my 5a for a 7 at no cost outside of tax! It comes as a bill credit for 24 months so you have to finance the new phone; meaning getting their replacement insurance for the phone. May be a deal breaker for some, but to me it was a pretty killer deal.
