About the GadgetRank Trade-In Index

The GadgetRank Trade-In Index compares what the same phone is worth at each UK recycler we hold live feed data for. This edition covers 3 recyclers (ur.co.uk and Grade Mobile and mobiledirectsell) across 210 device and storage combinations. More are added as feeds come online.

Every figure is for Excellent condition only. We deliberately exclude lower grades: recyclers grade on different scales — ur.co.uk uses three tiers, Grade Mobile four — so the same word means a different condition at each, and comparing them would be misleading. Excellent is the top tier at both.

Across this edition, ur.co.uk offered the higher price on 50% of matched devices. Prices are pulled from the same live feeds that power our comparison pages and change daily — always check current prices before selling. Journalists and bloggers are welcome to cite this data with a link to this page.
