A lot of folks are talking about the trade in amounts from Apple making the 11 even more enticing. Just wanted to speak a bit to my experience...
I was originally going to give my back to Apple for $400 and use that towards a new phone. But then I decided to feel Craigslist out a bit. Glad I did because I got $550 for my X 256GB. Of course, selling prices depend on the condition and what people around you are willing to pay. My X was in almost perfect condition due to the screen protector and case on it since day one.
Just saying that it never hurts to shop your device around. Our iPhones hold their value pretty well and Apple and other companies likely won't give you the full value of what your phone is worth. Especially if you've got an unlocked phone on your hands.
Key ideas with selling that I always follow is to meet the person at a public location. I always choose to meet at my local Verizon store.
Figured I'd share my experience and maybe help someone else get the most bang for the bucks they've spent on these phones. Why not recoup as much money from your purchase as you can?
