This is type of the shop that woos you with a high valuation but does everything in their power to find something wrong with the device you send in so that they can significantly knock down the valuation. Wouldn’t recommend.

Thank you for your feedback. We take pride in having fast customer service and highest payouts for accurately described items. In this instance, the device was not in mint condition, the seller was supplied images of the damages found and accepted the new quote. Had the item been accurately described in mint condition, the quote amount would have stood. As far as speed, our team works as fast as we can and updates were provided along the way.

Rip off
Rip off. Offered me $350 for a brand new never used phone that sells for $700+. After I finally decided to just do it and send them my phone, they changed their offer to $275. They sent me the payment via PayPal and took days to tell PayPal they received my phone causing a major issue in my PayPal account.
I would NEVER recommend this company to anyone. Ever.

Terrible service
Terrible service. Sent a pristine conditioned Microsoft surface duo in, it was barely used and barely past point of day I couldn’t return to store. Now I understand it was around thanksgiving and they could be backed up, but that 3 business days to get your money? Forget it, it took them almost a week just to mark it received after tracking said it was delivered and only did so after I sent them a message which they were friendly and helpful but that would be the last time they responded to my messages. They appraised it as like new condition for 852$, however when I finally got a new email after them ignoring me that entire time not only was it almost 2 weeks later but they dropped the offer to $502. Now I will say the original charger wasn’t included and yes they have every right to knock the price down but then they made up some Bull$&@( claim that they had to pry the sim tray out and included pics of the sim tray where they clearly had put some marks around the pinhole used to eject the tray which I know for a fact wasn’t there to begin with bc I took pictures of the whole phone before sending and they clearly weren’t there before. I do believe however that their initial appraisal was slightly high than I would have expected but that’s their fault not mine, but Godamn it was a slap in the face to receive the counter offer 350$ less than the first and after being ignored for 2 weeks it’s just not worth them sending it back w new damage they put on the phone not to mention who knows when I’d get it back so I just accepted the offer. Go to buyback world, this company is $hit

We apologize your service. We stated that due to the Thanksgiving Holiday we were backed up and processed your device as fast as possible. As for the revised quote, the item was not in the mint condition stated and a case was on the device hiding the damaged sim tray. We provided pictures of the damage and offered an option to have the device returned for free. Thank you for using TradeInMyTech.

I canceled the transaction after you…
I canceled the transaction after you changed the price. Period. I didn't ask for the old price. You then reimposed the original price after I canceled and basically stole my computer. I would never expect an online retailer to act in this manner. Would never use you again.

We are sorry for your experience. We provide guidelines of condition on our site. This item had damage and was not in the mint condition. We provide images and description as to why the change in pricing. We ended up honoring the original quote due to minimal damage. Thank you for using TradeInMyTech.

I wish my first experience was good
My first time I ever sent them an item. I’m used to Decluttr, as well as BuyBackWorld. But since this gave a higher, instant quote, I decided to take the risk, despite the 50/50 reviews.
To cut it this way, I will never go through them again. Why you may ask? The communication was very poor. I had to go to their website so many times to check on my status regarding my sold device. It said processed for more than a week, then it changed to ‘On Hold,’ which I NEVER got an email from them regarding this change. And when I asked what the update was, I got an email back many days later... someone with an ‘attitude,’ giving me an answer like I SHOULD HAVE known. Really..? I’ve dealt with customer service before as a job a long time ago, but I would never do such thing to a customer regarding updates. This is ridiculous. I was very worried and concerned, thinking it must be a scam at that point.
When they finally reviewed the item, they sent me pictures, saying there were imperfections when my device was barely used and they were very minor. They took a chunk off of the original quote so I denied it and wanted my device back. They sent me an email back that they paid me since it’s my ‘first time’ with them. At least I got paid, right..? I won’t complain about that, but they REALLY NEED to COMMUNICATE. To THEIR own CUSTOMERS! With this pandemic, I don’t know if you guys are busy. Some shops aren’t busy. You could have at least sent an email regarding a HOLD on MY and OTHERS orders! I was super worried!!
Shipped my item on JUNE 24th and got my money on the JULY 15th. Wow. That took a long time.... All the other devices I sold through the websites I mentioned were quick and reliable within good communication. Never again.

We are sorry for your experience. We try our best to process payment within 3 days of receipt. This was the case here and provided an email with a change in quote. We provide images and description as to why the change in pricing. We offer a free return if that is not acceptable. Thank you for using TradeInMyTech.

We are sorry for your experience. We do our best to outline condition criteria on our site. Your items were received with heavy damage resulting in a change quote. This does not qualify as mint and put into the fair condition. We offered free return shipping. Thank you for using TradeInMyTech.
