Is it possible to cancel my trade in? I just want to give it as a hand me down.

I have a trade in kit coming to me after purchasing a new phone.

id like to cancel the trade in. I’ve pod full price and I don’t need the discount. Id like to give the phone away as a hand me down.


is it as simple as just not sending in my trade in?


thanks

Yes. See the following from Apple Trade In - Apple


If you haven’t yet shipped your device, you can cancel your trade-in by simply keeping your device.


If you’ve already shipped your device, the trade-in can’t be cancelled. If you receive a revised trade-in value after the inspection of your device, you can then choose to reject it.
