The risks people worry about, removed
How selling to us compares to a marketplace or a kiosk on the things that feel risky.
| Your concern | Marketplace / Craigslist | Cash kiosk | Gadgetabulous |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meet a stranger in person | Yes, you arrange it | Yes, at the machine | No, ship from home |
| Scam or chargeback risk | High: fake payments, chargebacks | Low | None, we pay you |
| How you get paid | Cash or a risky app transfer | Cash on the spot | Venmo, PayPal, or check |
| If it is lost in the mail | Your problem | Not applicable | We pay your full quote |
| Your personal data | You wipe it, no backup | You wipe it | You wipe it, we re-wipe on arrival |
| Haggling | Constant | None, but low offers | None, your quote is fixed |
How you are protected
Free tracked shipping
We email a prepaid, tracked label. You pack it, drop it off, and follow it the whole way. You never pay to ship.
Lost-in-transit protection
If the carrier loses or damages your device on the way to us, we pay you the full amount we originally quoted. The mail is on us, not you.
Your data stays yours
Factory reset before you ship, and we securely re-wipe any device we can access on arrival. Every device is IMEI-screened.
Real cash, no obligation
Get paid by Venmo, PayPal, or check, never a gift card. Your quote is free and there is no obligation to accept it.

Safety and trust: your questions
Yes, and for most people it is safer. You never meet a stranger, there is no cash handoff, and there are no fake-payment or chargeback scams. You get an instant quote, ship from home with a free tracked label, and get paid by Venmo, PayPal, or check.
You are covered. If the carrier loses or damages your device in transit, we pay you the full amount we originally quoted. Your label is tracked the whole way, so you always know where your device is.
For safety, yes. Marketplace and Craigslist mean meeting strangers, exposure to fake payments and chargebacks, no-shows, and haggling. Selling to us is done from home with a tracked shipment, a guaranteed offer, and no in-person risk.
Your data stays in your control. Back up and factory reset your device before shipping, and turn off Find My or remove your Google account. As a safeguard, we also securely wipe any device we can access when it arrives. Every device is IMEI-screened too.
Very. The quote takes about a minute, the label and instructions are emailed to you, and you can reach a real person by contact form if anything is unclear. There is no obligation, so you can get your offer first and decide later.
