Apple released new versions of its iPad and iPad mini tablets last month, and now that those products have finally hit the market, you may be itching to get rid of the one you have so that you can pick up a new model. It's an understandable impulse, given that the new iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina Display have a fast A7 processor, brilliant screens and a terrific app ecosystem that makes the devices so useful.

In this article we'll discuss some of the places you can try to unload your old iPad to receive cash, which you can use to purchase a new version:

• Ebay: The internet's most popular auction site is also still a great way to get rid of old gadgets, your iPad included. You can set the price, and may find that you'll receive a higher payment than if you simply traded it in, though this isn't a guarantee.
• Gazelle: This company will send you a prepaid package which you can place your iPad in and ship it back to them. You'll get a cash payment in return. They also accept many different smartphones, tablets and even the MacBook Pro, if you're looking to replace these items as well.

In addition to Gazelle, you may also want to check the trade-in value for your device on NextWorth and USell, sites that offer a similar program, as they may be able to offer more for your iPad. Once you've exchanged your device and received payment, be sure to browse PortableOne's selection of Apple tablets and MacBook laptops, which offer the superb graphics capabilities, lightning fast processor speeds and the beautiful, minimalist designs that the company is famous for.
