How Selling Your Device Works
No appointment is necessary, and many in-store evaluations can be completed in just a few minutes.
Bring It In
Visit our Burlington shop with your device. Bringing the charger helps us evaluate laptops more accurately, but it isn’t required.
Get Your Free Quote
We’ll inspect the device, explain its value, and provide a fair local offer based on its condition and current market demand.
Get Paid or Trade Up
Accept the offer for cash or apply it toward one of our refurbished laptops. If you trade up, we’ll transfer your data for just $60 before securely wiping your trade-in device.
Local, Fair, and Convenient
Selling your device shouldn’t mean shipping it across the country or waiting weeks to get paid. We make the process quick, transparent, and local.
*Offers vary depending on the device’s model, age, condition, specifications, and current market demand.
How We Determine Your Device’s Value
Every device is different. We evaluate a few key factors to determine its value, and you don’t need to repair or clean anything before bringing it in.
Model
Newer devices generally receive higher offers. MacBooks often retain their value better than many Windows laptops.
Condition
Scratches, cracked screens, worn batteries, missing keys, or cosmetic damage all affect value, but they don’t automatically disqualify your device.
Specifications
Storage capacity, RAM, and processor all play a role in determining value. If you aren’t sure what your device has, we’ll check it for you.
Accessories
Having the original charger, accessories, or packaging may slightly improve the offer, but none are required.
