Your options for an old phone
| Option | Good for | Watch out |
|---|---|---|
| Buyback shop | Older iPhones and Galaxies, broken phones, several at once | Pays less than a perfect private sale on a recent model |
| Marketplace / Kijiji | A popular model in good condition | Old phones attract lowball offers and time-wasters |
| Carrier or Apple trade-in | Recent models, toward a purchase | Old models are often worth very little, and only as credit |
| Free take-back / recycling | Phones too old or too damaged to resell | No money, but no fee, and done properly |
| The drawer | Nothing | Value drops every year and the battery ages |
Got several?
Bring them all: family upgrades and office clean-outs are common at the counter. Each phone is checked, priced separately and paid in cash. For a business selling 5 or more devices, we invoice with GST and QST, and a data-destruction certificate is available on request.
And the ones nobody buys?
Devices too old or too damaged to resell are taken back for free, with no recycling fee, and handed to recyclers compliant with Québec standards, who destroy their storage. Read more about phone recycling, or about what we do with your data.
An old broken phone often keeps some value for its parts and its restoration: we buy broken iPhones too, at the price given after the free check.
