How phone buyback works
Step 1 — Bring in your phone
Bring the phone and the identification required by the store. The team will inspect the model, storage, condition, account-lock status, IMEI status and functionality.
Step 2 — Receive an offer
We explain how much we can pay and how much it will cost to repurchase the phone within the agreed period.
Step 3 — Receive your money
Accept the agreement and receive payment. We securely retain the phone during the agreement.
Step 4 — Buy it back
Return within the deadline and pay the repurchase price shown on the agreement to collect the same phone.
Buyback or sell outright?
Phone buyback is not a loan, pawnbroking or credit. It is a written in-store agreement to sell your phone and retain the exclusive option to repurchase it.
Sell outright
- Best for unwanted or upgraded phones
- Ownership transfers permanently
- No later payment required
- Available in store or through the postal service
28-day buyback
- Intended for customers who want temporary access to cash
- The phone is retained securely by the store
- The customer has the exclusive option to repurchase it
- The agreed repurchase price includes a storage and handling charge
- Must be completed in store
- Subject to the written agreement and deadline
Devices eligible for buyback
Eligibility and value depend on in-store testing, condition and current resale value.
Account-locked, reported-lost, blocked or suspicious devices are not accepted. Manufacturer account locks (Apple Activation Lock, Google FRP, Samsung account) must be removed by the legitimate owner using official methods before buyback can proceed.
