After a bad experience with another tech buyer I sent my phone off to Pre-Loved Tech. I filled in a very quick questionnaire, they sent me a label and packaging (although you can print this yourself too to save waiting) and I sent it off. They agreed with my phone assessment and paid the money within 24 hours. Highly recommended.

Sold my phone

Sold my phone, as soon as it got there I received an email stating it would take up to 2 days for someone to look at my phone, unfortunately my phone got there with scratches but that would be on me for not packing it properly, anyway I got another email 2 days later explaining that it had scratches and they offered me 45 instead of 67 but money is money and it would have just gone in the bin otherwise. The money was transferred into my PayPal about 7 or 8 hours later so I was really happy with how quick it all was

Very quick and easy questionnaire to complete.
Easy to send phone off and money received in a few days.
Can't complain about anything.
I asked for a pack to send my phone off in, that was just a plastic bag, so not protective at all. But used my original phone box. Not a problem

Quick and efficient service

Quick and efficient service. I was sent a prepaid envelope as requested to send in my tech, they informed me once received, checked it quickly and the money was in my account the same day they told me it would be. Could not fault the service received.

I was looking at buying a new laptop but wanted to go the refurbished route.

As I was aware of Preloved Tech as their a Theo Paphitis #SBS winner I contacted them to see what they had available.

Ordered and arrived within days.

Would recommend for those businesses looking to reduce their footprint by using their services.
