Microsoft has an offer Apple Watch owners most definitely can refuse …

If there’s anything less likely than an Apple Watch owner wanting to trade-in their watch for a Microsoft Band, it’s doing so for a trade-in value as low as $150 …

Microsoft wants to give you $150 for the Sport model with polymer band, $200 for the steel model – or a massive $250 if it comes with the Milanese Loop. An offer that is about as sketchy as the cexchange.com URL Microsoft is using to promote the offer. We think we’ll hold out for an Apple Watch Upgrade Program.

  4. Why would I even consider trading in used Apple Watch (even the base Sport model) when it has bigger value then their brand new wearable?
