Gazelle is launching a promotion in February for new iPad buyers and iPhone users whose contracts are just coming to term, offering a $10 bonus on cash payouts to help offset the cost of purchasing a newer iOS device.
The promo officially launches later this week (and ends on the 28th), but AppleInsider readers can take advantage of it starting today. Effectively, it pays you an additional $10 on any device trade-in valued at more than $25, which is essentially any iPhone, iPad, or relatively recent Mac that isn't completely broken.
Similar to services like NextWorth and USell that are also listed in our Trade-in Payout Guide, Gazelle's website asks you to assess the condition of the device you want to trade-in. It then makes you a cash offer and mails you a pre-paid shipping box for the device to be mailed back in ahead of payment.
Gazelle's current rates, as extracted from our Trade-in Payout Guide, for iPhones and iPads can be seen below. These prices are before the $10 bonus is added in:

Shouldn’t those stacks be of one dollar bills?
Does it matter? I don't think anyone is seriously expecting the photo to be realistic.
Wow. Ten dollars. So now Gazelle offers half of what you'd make selling your device on eBay, CL or Amazon, plus ten bucks. What a deal.
Look at the error message that I received at the very end of selling my 4S:
"This promotion is for first time customers only."
I sold a broken iPhone 5 to them last year, so I guess they won't give me the extra $10 :(
