TRADE-IN SERVICE LAUNCHED BY VERIZON

Verizon has launched a new service that will allow users to trade-in their old phones for a Verizon Wireless gift card.  Users can go to www.trade-in.vzw.com and select the type of device they have, it doesn't have to be a Verizon device either.  A series of questions about the device are then displayed for answers by the user concerning the condition of the device.  An appraisal is then displayed for your device with an offer to send a pre-paid box to be shipped to you.  The gift cards can be used towards purchases for Verizon Wireless goods and services.
