Selling Apple devices: How Trade-In works at epos (including securely deleting data)
Do you have an old Apple device you no longer use?
Then you're often sitting on cash. Many Apple devices still hold a surprisingly high value even after years – whether it's an iPhone, MacBook, iPad, or Apple Watch.
With our Trade-In Service at epos, you can easily sell your old device and either have the amount directly credited towards a new device purchase – or simply have the amount paid out to you.
What is your Apple device still worth?
Many underestimate the value of their devices.
For example:
An iPhone 15 Pro (256 GB) can currently still fetch up to €504. (As of April 27, 2026)
And even older devices are often still worth several hundred euros – depending on their condition and model.
Why Trade-In is particularly worthwhile
Instead of selling your device privately, you benefit from clear advantages with us:
- quick evaluation directly in-store or online
- no hassle with listings & negotiations
- direct credit towards a new purchase possible
- or cash payout if you don't need anything currently
- secure and transparent process
You decide: trade in or get paid out.
Which Apple devices are eligible for purchase?
Generally:
The newer and better preserved, the higher the value.
We buy various Apple devices, such as:
- iPhone
- MacBook & iMac
- iPad
- Apple Watch
A functional condition is of course an advantage and brings the best price. However, partially damaged or defective devices can also be purchased – the value will be adjusted accordingly.
Very important: Erase data correctly
Before selling your device, you should definitely reset it correctly.
For example, an iPhone:
- Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone
- “Erase All Content and Settings”
This will log out your Apple Account, completely reset your device, and securely remove your data.
Before selling: Always completely reset the device
Tip: If you are unsure, we will be happy to do it with you in the store.
And what happens to your device afterwards?
Your device will be checked and handed over to our European purchasing partner.
There it will be decided:
- Continued use as a refurbished used device
- or recycling of individual components
This ensures that devices are used for as long as possible and valuable resources are preserved.
What about devices with no value?
Not every device still has market value.
You can also drop off such devices at any of our branches.
We will take care of the professional disposal – free of charge and uncomplicated.
