"Historically, we've seen the value of used iPhones and other smartphones drop by up to 25 percent in the week following an iPhone launch," said Sarah Welch, chief marketing officer, Gazelle. "At Gazelle, we're dedicated to providing an awesome customer experience. We want to be sure our customers have the best of both worlds: the opportunity to lock in at today's value while also keeping their current phones until the new one is in hand. To continue to deliver on that promise, we're extending our industry-leading price lock guarantee to allow customers who lock in their offer this week to deliver their old iPhones to Gazelle up to 40 days after locking in their offer."
