iPad (9th generation) locked questions
How much is a locked iPad (9th generation) worth?
An iPad (9th generation) in like-new shape currently prices at up to $155. Once the lock is cleared, the lock itself does not lower the price; condition, storage and battery do. The iPad price is built from what the same configuration resells for right now, minus only what our technicians would need to fix.
Which iPad (9th generation) storage sizes can I sell?
All of them: 64GB and 256GB. Higher storage raises the offer in every condition. The quickest check is the About screen, under Settings on iPad and iPhone or the Apple menu on a Mac, which names the model, year and chip. Our model lookup also accepts a model number or identifier, which confirms exactly which iPad you hold before you start pricing.
Does the iPad (9th generation) have Activation Lock?
Yes. It stays tied to the owner's Apple Account until Find My is turned off or the device is removed at icloud.com/find. Activation Lock is tied to the Apple Account still signed in on the iPad; signing out removes it and frees the device for its next owner. Locked out of your own account? Recover it at iforgot.apple.com before you ship, because an iPad still linked to any account can't be bought or resold.
How do I get paid for my locked iPad (9th generation)?
Choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) when you accept. After testing confirms the iPad (9th generation) matches your answers, payment is sent within 2 business days after your device passes inspection. If anything differs you get a revised offer first and can decline it for a free return. Signing the iPad out of its Apple Account drops it from Find My, and that is what lifts Activation Lock for the next user.
Do you buy carrier-locked devices?
Yes. Pick the carrier in the quote. Carrier-locked units must be paid off and free of blacklist reports, which we check by IMEI before sending a label. Activation Lock is tied to the Apple Account still signed in on the Apple device; signing out removes it and frees the device for its next owner.
