Price History
The trade-in price history of Galaxy A8 generally shows a decline. In other words, the used prices of this device are dropping as newer models come to market. It is only very rarely that a second-hand electrical device will increase in price; this usually happens for example if it's a collector's item. Therefore if you are looking to sell your Galaxy A8 then it probably makes sense to do it sooner rather than later - before the next price drop.
