Feel like making some extra cash out of your old unwanted possessions?  It is easy – just spend an afternoon going through your cupboards and attics, cellars and other corners (try under the bed!).  You may find items which are of no use to you but may be worth some money.  You can either sell these at a car boot sale, garage sale, auction house or on an online auction site.   There are some things which you can simply exchange for cash online – such as old mobile phones.  You can sell your mobile or get cash for gold from one of numerous specialised websites.  They take on hundreds of makes and models of mobile phones, then either recycle them or get them up and running for use in developing countries.

Therefore, you can not only make money from things which are broken, unwanted, old or just of no use – and could even be helping the environment or good cause!  If you are worried about how much money your old phone may or may not be worth, fear not: websites which buy old mobile phones usually have a simple tool which will tell you the worth of your make or model. Therefore, you know how much you’ll be getting before you send off your old phone.  Nowadays with the many offers and upgrades on the mobile phone market, most people have a few old ones lying around.  Before you’re tempted to throw them in the bin, think about making some easy cash out of them.  All you will need is a computer with access to the internet in order to find out how much!
