Zusammenfassung:Various embodiments of kiosks for purchasing and/or recycling mobile phones and other mobile electronic devices from users are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the kiosks are relatively small (e.g., less than 0.75 cubic feet) and/or are configured to mount to other kiosks or other suitable mounting structures in publicly accessible areas. The kiosks can include an inspection area having a transparent plate through which the mobile electronic device can be viewed by a camera in the kiosk. The transparent plate can be movable (e.g., tiltable) to direct the mobile electronic device to one or more bins below the inspection area. The kiosk can also include one or more deflecting plates configured to direct the mobile electronic device to a selected bin. One or more of the deflecting plates can be configured to move (e.g., tilt) between two or more configurations to direct mobile electronic device to the selected bin.
