trade-in value

Exchange credit amount

Trade-in value is what a dealer will pay for your old item when you're buying a new one.

Most commonly applied to cars: The trade-in value was less than I hoped, but it covered the down payment.

Trade-in value is typically lower than private-sale value, since the dealer needs profit margin when reselling.
