By selling an old mobile phone you can help to put technology back into the hands of other people who can make a good use for them. E-waste is a global growing concern for the planet and our mission is to stop mobile phones making their way to landfill.

Over a relatively short period of time, a mobile phone can lose more than half its value. Much like a new car, technology value drops each month, meaning the longer you wait to trade-in your phone, the less you'll be able to get for it. 1 in 10 customers think that they'll get more for their phone if they hold off. If you lock in your price now, you're guaranteed to get a higher amount than if you wait.
The best option is to sell phones as quickly as possible. As soon as you upgrade to a newer device, make sure you sell to avoid disappointment. You could even sell your device before you buy a new one, to help fund the new purchase. Looking to know more about how we test your device when it arrives with us.

It's best practice to look after technology by putting a case and a screen protector on your device. You can even go that one step further to purchase mobile phone insurance to cover against those accidents that happen. Even with all of this protection there's times that a phone will develop faults or damage that can't be helped or protected against. If this does happen, you don't need to worry. Tech Octopus can still offer you a value for your damaged or broken mobile.
Whether you've got a smashed screen, cracked back or it's heavily covered in scratches, we can provide a quote. You may be surprised about how much you could get. Simply choose the most appropriate condition when selling and return your device to us for a full valuation.

Usually immediately after a phone launch, trade-in prices will drop, so the quicker you sell, the more you'll be paid. We provide a 14-day price guarantee, giving you enough time to return your device.
