From an online chat and telephone discussion I had today with Apple Support and Sales I learned the most I can get for an in-store buyback of (i.e., as in-store credit for) my 1-year, 2-week-old (perfect condition) A1474 (received as a gift from my daughter who bought it new from the Santa Monica California Apple store in April 2015) is $180. Thus the "option" of a sim tray will cost $349 minimum for a "trade" to an iPad with a hard drive with half the capacity of my current iPad. Apparently the iPadAir2 is the cheapest iPadAir currently available and Apple sells the 16GB model for $529. Why Apple began selling only 16GB and 64GB models of the iPadAir with its debut of the iPadAir2 is something I and other Apple users (such as my older daughter) would like to know. (Contemplating the purchase of an iPhone 6SE due to problems with her non-sim iPhone 4, my daughter was told the same limited options -- 16GB and 64GB -- now apply to the Apple iPhone.)
