  • Relatively good reviews
  • Site makes deals and pays quickly (usually within 2-5 days of receipt)

What Users Say: (From TrustPilot)

Easy, fast processing of my trade-in Apple Watch for the full valuation quoted. Especially good considering this was handled during the huge snowstorm at their office in Erie, PA. My only gripe was that I had to supply my own packaging. Rivals like Gazelle send you a box in which to ship your device back to them.

I’ve used MaxBack to sell several of my old cell phones over the past several years. Their website is easy to use. They make it easy to send in the phones and they’ve always paid what they’ve said they’d pay for the phones. They also pay very quickly through PayPal. They’re a great company to work with. I won’t hesitate to use them again.
