Google Trims Pixel Prices Upfront with Instant Trade-In Credits

Google Store now applies instant trade-in credits at checkout for Pixel devices, mirroring Samsung’s upfront discount model; pricing pages show the trade-in credit applied immediately (e.g., trading in a Pixel 8a could drop a Pixel 10a 128GB to about $284). Final value can change based on actual device condition, with potential extra charges or refunds, and the program appears to extend to other Pixels like the Pixel 10 Pro, signaling a broader shift for future launches.

iPhone 17 Pro Max Climbs to No. 1 in Trade-In Rankings

SellCell data shows the iPhone 17 Pro Max has become the most traded-in smartphone, accounting for 11.5% of top-20 trade-ins by early February (up from 5.1% in late November). Most traded units are in mint or good condition. The 17 Pro Max depreciates about 7% less than the iPhone 16 Pro Max over 145 days, translating to roughly $95 more retained value, while mint-condition units average about $967.50 in resale. The top-20 devices represent about 47% of trade-in activity, with the iPhone 15 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max also remaining prominent. The trend suggests strong resale pricing amid broader economic factors.

Trade In Old Electronics for Costco Credit With Phobio

Costco’s Phobio-backed trade-in program lets you swap old electronics (phones, laptops, tablets, smartwatches, desktops, media players) for up to $2,550 in Costco shop card credit, with no membership required. You get an online quote by selecting make/model and device condition, can print a shipping label or request a box, wipe your data (Phobio will also delete it), and after a 3–5 business day inspection you receive payment on a Costco shop card usable in-store or online. Devices from multiple brands—Apple, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Microsoft, and others—are accepted, though large appliances aren’t eligible. The initiative promotes repurposing electronics to support safer mineral sourcing and reduce mining demand, while boosting your savings at Costco.

GameStop Flips the Switch on Viral Trade-In Glitch

A YouTube creator highlighted a supposed 'Infinite Money Glitch' at GameStop: buying a Nintendo Switch 2 for around $415 and immediately trading it back in with a pre-owned game could trigger a promo that boosted the trade-in value, letting players repeatedly rack up store credit. GameStop says the glitch has been patched and promotions updated to prevent further abuse, though it’s unclear whether the video exposed a real flaw or a marketing stunt as questions linger while stores face closures.
