Exchanging iPad
Hello,
I have a 6th generation iPad without any damage and I was wondering if it’s possible to exchange and pay the difference for a larger, new iPad generation.

If you have had this iPad longer than 14 days, you won't get what you paid for it in exchange for a different iPad. You had exactly 14 days from the date of purchase to return it to Apple for a 100% refund, which you could use towards the purchase of anything you wanted.
You can use the Apple Trade Up program, but as mentioned, you're not going to get what you paid for the device. If you've owned your iPad longer than 14 days, you would likely be better off financially to sell the iPad to someone you know. If you do that, make sure you prepare the iPad properly for a new user.

I forgot to ask, is this a newly purchased iPad 6th gen or have you had this iPad for some time?
