Swappa Monthly Report: May 2014



The Top 5

The top-selling devices for the month of May on Swappa:

  1. Samsung Galaxy S 4 (Verizon) – average sale price: $293 (was $308)
  2. Apple iPhone 4 (Verizon)average sale price: $111
  3. Apple iPhone 5S (AT&T) – average sale price: $482 (was $486)
  4. Apple iPhone 5S (Verizon)average sale price: $542
  5. Nexus 5 (Unlocked) – average sale price: $327 (was $330)

Once again #1 for this month was the Samsung Galaxy S 4 (Verizon), which has been at the top spot for several months.

New on the list at #2 is the Apple iPhone 4 (Verizon). That’s right, the iPhone 4 has had 3 generation of successors (4S, 5, and 5S), but is still quite popular on the re-sell market.

The Nexus 5 (Unlocked) remained on the Top 5 list this month, but took a big drop from #2 to #5.

The Apple iPhone 5S (AT&T) stayed in the #3 spot and was joined by it’s sibling the Apple iPhone 5S (Verizon) at #4. This makes 3 of the top 4 phones sold on Swappa iPhones.

Overall though, Android devices dominate the marketplace, the sales numbers are just much more widely distributed over many different models.

Welcome eBay Immigrants

We have a lot of new sellers making the switch to Swappa from eBay because they are sick of paying ridiculous fees and getting bad support.

We’ve recently added a new feature to Swappa that allows all sellers to import your eBay feedback history (for the last 12 months) into your Swappa profile.
