A kiosk has no overhead and nobody standing next to it, so it offers what it likes and you either take it or carry your phone home. We price against the real resale market, we show you the number before you commit, and a person looks at your actual phone rather than a machine guessing at it. If you do not like our number you keep your phone and there are no hard feelings — but you will not get that conversation with a kiosk.
