Should You Sell Your iPad With the Apple Pencil and Keyboard?

By the SellYouriPads team · Updated October 21, 2026

Yes, a compatible Apple Pencil or keyboard sent with the iPad raises the offer, because buyers pay more for a ready-to-use setup. The accessory has to match the iPad, though. An Apple Pencil Pro adds nothing to an iPad that cannot use it, so check compatibility before you bundle.

Which Apple Pencil works with which iPad?

  • Magic Keyboard (earlier): iPad Pro 11-inch 1st to 4th generation, 12.9-inch 3rd to 6th generation, and iPad Air 4th and 5th generation.

Is it better to bundle or sell accessories separately?

Bundling is simpler: one sale, one box, one payment, and a higher price for the iPad. Selling separately can return a little more in total for a high-value keyboard, but it means a second listing and the risks of a private sale. For most people, bundling the accessory that matches the iPad is the efficient choice. Keep an accessory if it also fits your next iPad.

How do I prepare accessories for sale?

  1. Unpair them: Settings > Bluetooth > info button > Forget This Device.
  2. Clean the Pencil tip and the keyboard keys and trackpad.
  3. Check the Pencil charges and the keyboard types normally.
  4. Pack them in the same box, protected from scratching the iPad's screen.

How do I include accessories in a price?

In the iPad price check, select them at the "What's included?" step. The offer updates to include them. For the other attributes that decide the price, see how much an iPad is worth, and for packing, how to ship an iPad safely.

Does a third-party stylus or keyboard add value?

Generally no. Buyers pay for the Apple accessories that match the iPad. Third-party cases, styluses and keyboards can be kept or sold separately; they do not raise a buyback price.

Does the original box matter for accessories?

Not much. Boxes add a small amount at most. What counts is that the accessory works, pairs and is not heavily worn; a keyboard with a torn hinge or shiny, unreadable keys is worth less.

What about the charger and cable?

Include the USB-C or Lightning cable and power adapter if you still have them. Missing chargers cost very little, but a complete set looks better to the next owner.
