How do I sign out of my Apple ID or iCloud login before selling my iPhone 6S?
Go to your Settings > Select Apple ID > Scroll to the bottom > Select ‘Sign Out’. To clear up definitions, your iCloud login is the same thing as you Apple ID.
Do I have to give the charger and box when selling my iPhone 6S?
If you include your original wall charger and cable and they are in good working condition then, you will get a higher selling price, which means more money!
How do I erase all content on my 6S before selling it?
Remember, if you’re erasing all content, you’ll also be erasing your phone from Find My iPhone and whatever is in your iCloud account. The best way to do this is to go to your Settings > Tap ‘general’ > Choose ‘reset’ and select ‘erase all content and settings’.
What do I have to provide when selling my iPhone 6S?
All the information we need from you will be asked for during the few minutes you spend on creating your listing. We’ll need your full name, contact details, delivery address and the details of the device you’re selling such as the make, model, colour and if there’s any damage to it. We will also need your banking details so that you can get paid for the sale of your phone.
Will I get more for my used iPhone 6S on Phonetradr, WeBuyPhones or Sell Your iPhone?
- On Phonetradr you will get the iPhone 6S between R1,000 - R4,640.
- On WeBuyPhones, you can get between R3,000 - R6,000, however, you could be dealing with a scammer who provides a fake proof of purchase to get you to deliver your phone.
- On Sell Your iPhone, you can get an 6S for between R670 - R3,215, but again you’ll have to contend with untrustworthy characters and having to meet up with a stranger to conduct a transaction.

Okay, I want to sell my phone on Phonetradr. What do I do?
Simply click “Sell Now”, select the make, model, capacity and colour of the phone you’re selling. Then, we will give you a suggested selling price but you’re welcome to change it to whichever amount you’d like. Then, click “sell it” and choose from two convenient selling options:
Instant Listing
This is an option for people that are currently using the phone they’re selling. We’ll list the phone for sale but you keep it with you until it’s sold. Only then do we collect it, inspect, verify and package it before it gets delivered to the buyer. The disadvantage here is that it takes slightly longer to sell as it’s not pre-verified and is listed with a longer delivery time frame to the buyer than a Standard Listing.
Standard Listing (recommended)
This is a great option if you’re not currently using the phone you’re selling. This way, we collect the phone from you and deliver it to Phonetradr HQ where we will complete the inspection and verification before listing your phone for sale. It gets stored in our CAT 5-certified safe with CCTV surveillance and of course your phone is also insured. It's safer with us than anywhere else!
The other benefit is your phone gets labeled as a ‘featured phone’ on our site, which means more people are viewing your listing. Also, it results in a quicker delivery time since its stored with us ready to be delivered to a buyer within 24-48 hours. And of course you get paid faster.
