As I wrote on my blog's comments:

"True, but I've found that Amazon trade-in's prices are usually very conservative. For such an old handset I'd have sent it to Amazon's warehouse myself. For newer stuff that's falling in value, even though eBay's fees amount to about 12% in the end for electronics (last time I checked)... you can usually get the most for it there if you need it to sell by a given date for the maximum return.

Also, I do want to point out that Amazon is essentially just doing what you'd be doing here ... offering it for sale as a used item. You can do that yourself and make more of a profit if you're setup this way."
