It definitely boils down to opportunity cost. If I’m willing to spend the time and list it, wait for a buyer, and ship it, I might be willing. If, however, I’m wanting a sure thing, it’s a more reliable consideration.

Depends on the storage size, but yeah, you can get more money selling it on Ebay or Cragslist. However, many people don’t want that hassle. In fact, especially people who are new to selling their year old device–$250-$350 is a steal to them. In addition, the convenience factor is probably the most appealing aspect of all.

Used Apple phones sell very well in the used market, if you sell it to anyone for $250 and it’s in great shape you’re giving it away. You could easily get $500 at ebay.
