Frequently asked questions

How much is an iPhone SE (3rd Gen) worth?

As of Oct 14, 2026, our cash offer for an iPhone SE (3rd Gen) goes up to $55 for a 256GB unlocked unit in top condition, and starts at $50 for the 128GB. Condition moves the number; the quote gives your exact offer.

Does battery health change what an iPhone SE (3rd Gen) is worth?

A battery at 79% maximum capacity or below is a flat $20 off at any grade, and it does not change the grade itself. So a 256GB unlocked iPhone SE (3rd Gen) in top condition comes to $35. A battery under 80% still sells. You can check yours in Settings, Battery, Battery Health & Charging.

Do you buy an iPhone SE (3rd Gen) that will not turn on, or one with water damage?

Usually yes, at parts value. Water damage is fine for parts pricing; what matters is whether it powers on at all. Say so in the quote and we will price it. The one case we pass on is a device too far gone to use for parts.

Can I sell an iPhone SE (3rd Gen) that is still locked to an Apple Account?

Not while it is locked. We cannot buy a device that is still iCloud or Activation Locked. Sign out of iCloud and turn off Find My and we will quote it. Signing out before we meet does not change the offer.

How do I get paid for an iPhone SE (3rd Gen)?

Cash when we meet in person, or Zelle, Cash App or PayPal. Zelle and Cash App usually land the same day. There is no obligation until you accept.

Where can I sell an iPhone SE (3rd Gen) near me?

We meet sellers across Los Angeles and Orange County, either at our secured facility in Long Beach or at a public spot near you. The Inland Empire and North San Diego County are covered by scheduled weekly meetups and pickups, and a custom meetup or delivery is available for a small fee. You can also ship it with a prepaid label we send.
