Amazon.com will give you credit for one. Their site quoted my $200 for my 3GS 32GB.

I recommend selling on Amazon Marketplace instead of selling TO Amazon. I make so much more money selling on the marketplace than I ever did on Ebay. Look into the used prices on the marketplace and compare to selling it to Amazon obviously.

Yeah I saw they were getting a lot more for the one used 3GS I spotted for sale. Not to mention I'd be getting a gift card which is profit to some degree for Amazon as well. I'm just not sure I want the hassel since it has wear and tear scratches to the back and sides. I suppose I could take a look at some of the listings to see how others compare.

I did eBay Instant Sale. I know I left about $25-$40 on the table, but it's worth it for the lack of hassle. I got $136 for mine, with free shipping. No hassle, no listing fees. With shipping and fees, a $170 sale would only net about $20 more, with the risk of scam artists and such. Normally don't take the cheaper way out, but with a bazillion 3GSs on sale, I noticed that most were selling now in the $150 or less range.

Sprint took my 16 gig 3GS for $170 when I bought my 4S. I was incredibly surprised. I was able to get the 64 gig because of that!
