Lately, it feels like every technology manufacturer has a product or two hitting the market on a monthly basis. Then, there are companies like Amazon that are expected to release tens of products in a day. All that is to say we, the consumers, have more gadgets and devices to shop from than ever before — even if the economy suggests we should take a backseat on spending.

It also means that our older tech is getting less flashy by the day, and will eventually make its way into that one drawer full of other retired gadgets — collecting dust, left forgotten. That is unless you turn in the device(s) through a trade-in program.

Once you've selected your item(s) to trade in, a qualifying questionnaire will appear for you to complete. 

The questions revolve around the condition and status of your trade-in item(s), including whether or not it's cracked or damaged, can hold a charge, and more depending on the type of electronic. Your answers will be evaluated during the inspection process, so you'll want to be as honest and accurate as possible. 

If there is an inaccuracy detected, you can choose between taking a lower estimated trade-in value for the electronic or having Amazon return it back to your shipping address. The latter is typically not offered with trade-in programs, so it's good to see.
