That depends on its age and condition. More recent phones generally have a higher value than old ones, but other factors can affect value.

Addition to my CAT phones
I purchased this phone because I tired of carrying around two phones. This was a better than I was expecting idea. Once set up this has been a seamless experience and wonderful service from Clove Technology.
It is a shame that Android hasn't yet made the process of changing phones as easy as it is on Apple, however this phone has been worth the simple but tiresome job of logging back into all the apps which were transferred to my new CAT phone.
The battery life on the CAT 53 is very good and it wouldn't be easy to run the battery down over one day. With light use the battery certainly lasts two days and may even give a third days light use. The screen has good daylight brightness, works with gloves on even when the screen is wet. The torch is a handy addition for the winter months. Altogether I think this has been a great purchase and an easy to use phone, not too heavy for the size and large battery, also it is lighter and more compact and easier to carry around than two phones.
