Microsoft buys used iphones in latest attempt to get consumers to switch to windows

Microsoft on 27th September launched yet another trade in program to convince consumers to switch to switch to a Windows device , this time aimed at iphone users.

On its Microsoft store Website Microsoft outlined the new deal : It will accept "gently used " iphone 4s and iphone 5 smartphones- the 2011 and 2012 editions, respectively- and pay a minimum of  $200 for each. The Redmond wash technology company will issue the funds as a gift card good for purchases at the microsoft store.

As in the ipad buy back program that debuted 2 weeks ago, customers must bring their used iphones to a retail outlet in the U.S, Canada or Puerto Rico trade-ins are not supported online where a sales representative will evaluate the device and decide on the dollar amount. Microsoft has 77 stores in U.S, Canada and Puerto Rico.

Microsoft's buy back program will expire on Nov 3. Apple has already launched new smartphones - the flagship iphone 5s and a lower priced iphone 5c but the former is in very short supply with current orders stated to ship at an unspecified date next month.
