I couldn't help but notice that the Verizon iPhone 4 has accelerated a trend where tons of stores are now advertising that they will accept your used iPhone 4 either for cash or a discount on a new phone or any other merchandise.
Here's a link to an article that summarizes trade in values, etc.:

In addition to the table it lists, gazelle, ebay instant sale and similar stores are offering even more than most retail stores.
The question I have is what is happening to all these used iPhones? I don't see a ton of places selling used iPhones... where do they go? Obviously there's money to be made here, but I'm having a hard time seeing where the big retail market for used iPhones is.
