better you sell directly, samsung dealer will inspect and give you their price will ne lower their market price.

you rugi alot.

i will try to sell my s8+ if can sell i will buy s9+. Direct sell you can sell higher.

if replace note 8 then not worth. Replace s8+ is considerable.

This I agree +9999.

Worry about this worry about that, at the end, everyone is trying so hard to keep their phones as prestine as possible just for the potential 2nd hand buyer. While the owner himself didn't get to enjoy the phone till the maximum.

Anyway,  it's a matter of personal preference. I respect that. But I can't imagine myself trying so hard to let go the old phone with highest resale value. If you can find a willing buyer, good for you. But if can't, then just trade in the phone. Save the trouble and time. It may not be the best choice, but at least it's a workable method.

S8 & s8+ likely at 1500 for trade in lol

2.6k trade in?

Senheng offers rm1750 to trade in note 8. Lol. That's a pretty good indicator. But samsung did offer trade in until end of last year where they offered s8+ at rm1.8k or 1.9k. You can have ballpark figure there.

What do you expect? RM3k trade in for a Note 8?

A good estimate would be 50-60% off the RRP.

Why you wanna change from Note 8 to S9+ though? Just curious.
