Sell an Unwanted Apple Gift in Chicago, Instant Cash
Every Christmas, every birthday, every graduation, hundreds of Chicagoans receive Apple devices they cannot use.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does selling an unwanted Apple gift work without a receipt?
Bring the unopened Apple box to 2A. We authenticate via serial / IMEI lookup, packaging, weight, and shrink-wrap. No receipt is required. Cash in 10-15 minutes.
Will my gift-giver ever know I sold their gift?
No. We do not contact the gift-giver under any circumstances. The transaction is between you and us, fully anonymous.
Can I sell multiple unopened Apple gifts at once?
Yes. For 3+ sealed items in the same visit, we add a small bundle bonus on top of the individual offers.
What if the gift is no longer in stock at Apple (older sealed model)?
Older sealed models often pay even better because retail supply is exhausted. Last year
Can I sell a sealed Apple gift card?
We do not buy Apple Gift Cards, only sealed physical Apple devices.
What if I want to upgrade instead of cashing out?
Take the offer as refurbished-store credit and we add a 10% bonus. Use it toward a refurbished iPhone, MacBook, iPad, or accessory in our Chicago store.
Do you accept sealed Apple gifts purchased from international Apple Stores?
Yes, most international SKUs are accepted. International models sometimes pay 5-10% less because resale buyers prefer US warranty coverage. Bring the device, we will quote.
Is selling an Apple gift to 2A safer than selling on Facebook Marketplace?
Dramatically safer. No scammers, no chargebacks, no shipping risk, no meet-up safety concerns. Walk in, walk out, done.
