Getting money off a new ipad

Hi! I have an old iPad mini that recently the screen got messed up and Apple says they don’t do repairs (getting a new screen) for my iPad. Is there a way I can get money off of a new full sized iPad now?

iPad mini, iOS 9

If your old iPad is too old to be repaired - and has no monetary value for trade-in - your options for a discounted device are limited.


Possible routes to reducing the cost of a new iPad are:

  • shop-around the various Apple Authorised Retailers for a reduced price
  • perhaps consider an Apple Certified Refurbished model - as these are indistinguishable from brand new and have an identical warranty: Certified Refurbished Products - Apple

Hello ava_pett,


It sounds like you're looking for service options for your iPad. As you mentioned it's an older model you can check to see if it's listed as obsolete or vintage here: Obtaining service for your Apple product after an expired warranty - Apple Support


If listed it's likely the device wouldn't be eligible for a trade-in, however you can follow the directions here to have it recycled in an environmentally responsible way. Find more from the website here: Apple Trade In - Apple


For further assistance with purchasing, reach out to the Apple Support sales team directly.

Cheers.
