iPad 4 Trade In Credit Offered at Target, Customers Can Get up to $200
An iPad 4 trade-in credit is now being offered by Target.
Customers can get up to $200 for their old Apple tablet. The retailer is accepting all iPads including the original model and giving out a gift card for this amount. It normally gives just $65 for a first-gen iPad trade-in.
"Between November 3rd thru 9th, visit your local Target Mobility store and trade-in any iPad for at least $200 to use towards the purchase of a new iPad," wrote the retailer.

Despite Target's wording in the statement, customers have reported that they received gift cards for that amount that didn't need to be used to purchase a new iPad Air or iPad Mini 2.
The $200 gift card towards a new iPad can only be obtained in the store as the online trade-ins still will only get customers the normal $65 amount.
Several Target locations have been unprepared for the trade-in program by not having enough employees working to secure that every customer was attended to. Some of them have even been turned away or faced waiting on long lines, according to MacRumors.
The process requires a Target worker to type in the model number and check to make sure the buttons are functional and that the screen isn't cracked. The next step is to enter a license number before they give them the gift card.
Apple released the iPad Air earlier this month. The new tablet features a thinner frame than its predecessor with the same great retina display. It packs the new A7 processor with 64-bit architecture found on the iPhone 5S. It was unveiled alongside the slightly smaller iPad Mini 2 with retina last month.
