Get paid as you upgrade!

Get paid as you upgrade!

Of course the best solution to fighting e-waste is to simply buy fewer electronics.  But if you are obsessed with having the latest iPhone or Blackberry, then this may be the solution for you.

With Flipswap, you can trade in your phone and receive cash or store credit for your next purchase.  Used phones are sold at a discount.  With the average American buying a new phone every 12 months, Flipswap and other phone recycling companies, could start collecting over 100 million used phones all the while making a great business out of a good deed.  That's a real win for the people, the planet and these eco-entrepeneurs!

In addition to Flipswap, there are websites where you can send in your old hand electronics for cash such as second rotation and buymytronics.com. Anna www.green-talk.com
