iPad 2 trade-in questions
How much is my iPad 2 worth?
UK trade-in stores currently pay up to £5 for an iPad 2, depending on storage, network and condition. A 16GB Wi-Fi iPad 2 in good condition fetches up to £2 at CeX.
Which store pays the most for an iPad 2?
In our latest data Back Market publishes the highest working price, £5 for a 32GB model. The best store can change by storage and condition, so check the table for your configuration.
Can I sell or recycle a broken iPad 2?
Yes. The best published price for a faulty or cracked iPad 2 is £1 (16GB, Argos). Faulty prices assume the worst case the store lists — if less is wrong with yours, the store may pay more.
Can I sell a brand-new or sealed iPad 2?
Yes, but none of the stores we compare publishes a separate price for a sealed or unused handset, so a new iPad 2 is priced in the top condition grade: up to £5 for the 32GB model at Back Market.

Up. The best published price is £5, up £1 (25%) from £4 at our previous update on 16 September 2026.
Is it worth comparing trade-in prices for an iPad 2?
Yes. For a 16GB iPad 2 in good condition, 2 stores quote between £1 (Argos) and £2 (CeX) — a £1 difference for the same iPad.
Is a Cellular iPad 2 worth more than Wi-Fi?
Usually a little. The table above shows Wi-Fi prices; pick Cellular in the full comparison to see what each store pays for the Wi-Fi + Cellular model.
