Have a blue 13 mini 512gb unlocked. Mint condition. What’s the least I should accept? I also have the original box and lightning cable that was never even used and a matching blue Apple silicone case.
Got a tip for us?

Personally, I wouldn’t take anything more than $100 off it below full retail cost unless you are hoping for a quick sale… thats essentially a new phone.

Disagree. Mini's depreciate fast and the fact that they aren't going to be making new iPhone Mini people that want them are looking for it cheap. Additionally, it's already been a year since release so it has no warranty or AC so OP would be lucky to get $500-$600. Eventually, iPhone 13 Mini's will hit the Apple refurbished store after Sep and even new stock from carriers will go on huge sales.
Most U.S. retailers seem to be offering 512GB 13 minis in “excellent” or “mint” condition for around $750 to $850. You should be able to get $700 to $750 for yours but pricing it will depend on quickly you want/need to sell.
Warranty is based on when it was purchased, not when the model launched e.g., if a device was purchased four months ago, it would still have eight months of warranty left.

A potential problem with "pricing trend" charts is that results can be skewed if there is little data for a particular model/version e.g., in the Swappa chart you posted, the price trend for a 512GB 13 mini dropped below 128GB and 256GB versions which makes no sense.

Swappa doesn’t seem to agree with you.. with the exception of the one with the most storage which seems to have a significant price drop… perhaps that’s because there are so few of those that were sold or bought. The other two storage configurations seem to be pretty consitant and stable and just happen to be about $100 less than original retail, which is what I recommended. I think if anything, the people who really want the smaller form factor iPhone (i love it just for that) they will be be paying regular retail unless they can find the rare used “but mint” one. And I also believe the mini will retain its value much longer than any of the other 13‘s for the very reason you pointed out - the 13 is the last mini being made. People are going to want to get there hands on one as time goes on… even after the 14 goes on sale. The small form factor is much more popular than some people believe. They want something that fits in a traditional pant or shirt pocket… not have to buy special clothing with over sized pocket to carry their (almost) iPad mini sized phones around… if I could go back to the 4s sized form factor I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute… it was the perfect size to be a smart phone… all IMHO, of course!
