We'll Match or Beat CeX
Got a current CeX cash price for the same device? We'll match or beat it on a like-for-like basis.*
*Like-for-like means the same device model, storage capacity and equivalent condition or grade. The CeX cash price must be current and verifiable, and refers to the CeX cash value rather than the higher voucher or exchange value. Final valuation is subject to inspection of the device. Terms apply.
PhonesForCash is not affiliated with, endorsed by or partnered with CeX. CeX is named only as an identifiable competitor for the purpose of the comparison. Read the full CeX price match terms.
Get Your ValuationHow Chorley customers sell with us: There's no PhonesForCash counter in Chorley itself. You choose between the tracked postal service and a visit to St Helens; both begin with a WhatsApp guide valuation so you know the ballpark before deciding.
St Helens is about 30 minutes from Chorley via the M6 southbound, with parking at the Tontine multi-storey a short walk from our Church Street counter. Rail is possible via Wigan for anyone not driving.
Because Chorley is within easy reach of the counter, we see a lot of higher-value handsets from here — iPhone Pro and Pro Max models, Galaxy S Ultras, foldables — where people would rather hand the device over in person than trust it to the post. That's a sensible instinct on anything worth a few hundred pounds.
If you are coming in, back the phone up, sign out of your Apple or Google account and bring photo ID. Doing those three things before you set off is the difference between a ten-minute visit and a return trip.
