Can I send my old device for trade in after I receive my new device?

Hi davidbajnath,

Welcome to the Apple Community where some of us do our best to help each other.

Apple has information online about trading in an old device for a new one:

(If it helps, I understand you can still trade-in a device at an Apple Store, even if you are not purchasing a new device.)

Cheers :)
