First of all, relax, I'm not announcing an exclusive executive swapmeet. The market for used cell phones has ramped up to a whopping $11 billion as of 2016[1]. That's a big number by itself, especially since the market scarcely existed just ten years ago. By comparison, everything sold in every category by everyone worldwide on Ebay, new or used, was $84 billion total in 2016[2].
