The Next Web resource told what happens when gadgets are handed over under the trade-in program from Apple.
As soon as you hand over your iPhone, the rights to the device are transferred to the Irish company Alchemy, which transfers part of the proceeds to the Cupertinos.
After that, the smartphone is sent in most cases to one of the 60 Alchemy warehouses, thanks to all of Europe, Asia and the USA. Security guarantees for all data that could remain on the devices.
The first thing Alchemy does is use specialized software to quickly erase all external data from the device and reset it to factory settings. Alchemy allows access to the user’s sensitive data, in accordance with very strict rules.
Checked by Apple for the last six months.
Next comes a full diagnostic test to identify any irregularities and determine if they can be repaired economically. If not, the gadgets are sent to Apple’s iPhone detection robot.
Apollo is another important software. It scans the prices of supported Apple devices and determines and predicts future prices.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale is sold on Alchemy’s own site, Loop Mobile, through smaller resellers, and some of the major retail resellers, including Amazon, Walmart, and Back Market. [9to5]
In Russia, you can profitably sell the iPhone. The dollar is already 100 rubles each, which is sad, but the cost of the resulting gadget has increased significantly.
