Thousands Of Owners Ditch Old IPads For Newer Model

Owners of the first-gen iPad are rushing to sell their tablets, according to online gadget-buyer Gazelle. In the hour after the new iPad 2 was voiced yesterday, the firm paid for more than 2,000 used iPads. This compares to 1,200 iPhones that Gazelle paid for during the whole initial day after the iPhone 4 was voiced final summer.

Clearly the new iPad's features "- a thinner, lighter body and a span of cameras - are sufficient to make people wish to embankment their ugly, rotund aged iPads and ascent to the newer model.

Gazelle buys flattering ample any used gadget. You answer a couple of questions on the site about its condition, and either it still has its cables and charger, and Gazelle will give you a price. If you agree, the firm sends you a box, and you send it back with the device inside. Your device is checked, and you obtain the money. Gazelle sells things on its Ebay store.

Yesterday, before the bullion rush, these were the iPad prices, that we received in an e-mail from Gazelle:

16-GB Wi-Fi:$375

16-GB Wi-Fi+3G:$446

32-GB Wi-Fi: $437

32-GB Wi-Fi+3G:$522

64-GB Wi-Fi:$463

64-GB Wi-Fi+3G:$595

Now, interjection to a bolt of sellers, the prices have dropped. Today, your 16-GB Wi-Fi iPad will obtain you only $300. we ran my 64-GB Wi-Fi+3G by the Gazelle estimate-ometer and it will obtain me $510. These drops are done worse by the fact that Apple has knocked $100 off the cost of the original iPad to keep them selling until the new models ship.

Will we be shopping the new iPad? Probably. I'm rsther than taken by the like new alluring case, and the cameras, notwithstanding being reduction than a singular measly megapixel, are going to be great for receiving records and mission my parents. It's only a tarnish that the Boston-based Gazelle won't agree to items from overseas.
