Hi all!

I ordered the iPhone 13 on 9/17 and it’s set to deliver tomorrow. During checkout I was having a problem trying to use Verizon device payments so I just payed outright on a credit card and got $500 trade in through Apple.

Since Verizon upped the trade in deal to $1000 when you use their device payment program, I definitely want to take advantage of that. Is it possible to have an Apple store mark the device as returned and then just process a new sale of the device to me so I can elect to use Verizon device payments? Im pretty sure the answer is no, but figured it might be worth asking…It would be a bummer to have to return the device and then wait a month for another one (but not the end of the world)

The online Apple store chat couldn’t seem to give me a straight answer and I wasn’t sure if maybe someone else had been in a similar situation previously and could chime in.
