Trade-In Rules

🔁 Trade-In Rules

Turn your tech into cash — the right way.

We love giving tech a second life. And when you trade in your pre-loved electronics with REFURBICA, we make the process simple, fair, and transparent.

To ensure a smooth experience for everyone, please read the following trade-in rules carefully.

 

✅ What You Can Trade In

We currently accept:

  • Smartphones, tablets, laptops, and smartwatches

  • Game consoles and video games

  • E-readers, headphones, and other select electronics

  • Books in good condition (no heavy damage or missing pages)

📦 Your device must:

  • Be owned by you (no stolen or leased items)

  • Be fully paid off (no outstanding payments or contracts)

  • Match the condition you selected when requesting your quote


📦 Device Condition Guidelines

We offer different values depending on the condition of your item:

  • Like New: Fully functional, no visible wear

  • Good: Minor signs of use, fully functional

  • Fair: Noticeable wear or scratches, still works properly

  • Broken: Doesn’t function, but we might still accept it, if we can restore the device to its former glory.

💡 Tip: Be honest about the condition — we check every item upon arrival. Undervalued? We’ll pay more. Overvalued? We’ll revise the offer.
