If one day you wind up with a drawer full of cell phones, charges and accessories, then you are one of many persons who do not know what to do with their old cell phones. Throwing away old cell phones is simply not a comfortable option and giving it to a child may not be an option as in most cases their phones are so much hipper than yours.

One of the latest trends of getting rid of those cell phones is to sell your mobile phone. It is very much advertised, but not a lot of people use the option—either because they do not trust it or they can’t be bothered, thinking it will be too much hassle. Getting cash for phones though is simple, especially if you can do it online.

The first place most persons will go to sell their old cell phone is EBay. However EBay can be time consuming and will cost you as you have to set up an account to list your phone. You will also have to be concerned about organizing shipping and handling to your customer when the phone is sold. However there are various other options to get cash for phones online through several mobile phone merchants.

If you have no idea at all of the available online mobile phone merchants, the first simple step is to Google the information. You may find a list of companies but you can just choose 3 or 4 to research, depending on the time and preference you have.

All companies will have different terms and conditions for the sale and purchase of phones. Therefore this is what you are doing the research for. It will only take a few minutes if you have a fast internet service. You are looking for country, shipping and handling terms, payment terms and most importantly how much they are willing to pay for the phone.

Once you have found these terms you them choose the site which best fits what you want. Then with just a few more clicks you can sit back and watch your phone being sold and cash coming to you.

After you’ve identified the company you contact them, usually they have a very visible button to click to sell your phone. They will then arrange to send you pre-paid postage envelope in which to send back the phone to them. After they’ve checked that the phone is ok your payment will be sent by mail or online, whichever you prefer.
