Legit, honest and top dollar

Super easy to work with and top dollar for my devices. Had terrible experience with the other competitors undervaluing my phone after sending it it. Not the case here. This is the place to go to.

Great experience! Phew!

I'm only leaving a review because when I was trying to sell my old iphone, I realized there's a lot of shady websites and opportunities to get scammed, and it's nerve-racking sending off your electronics in the mail.

My experience with BuyBackWorld was legit. I shopped around few sites and they offered me the highest price for my phone (way more than the apple store) and the offer was valid for 30 days. They even provided me with the pre-paid envelope I needed to ship my phone to them to make things easy. Everything was straightforward, honest, no surprises, and they kept me informed at every step of the selling process.

Best of all, they were prompt with full payment (via paypal). If I had any more spare phones laying around, I'd definitely use them again.

This is the worse company I have ever…

This is the worse company I have ever used and will never use again.
They sent my payment to the wrong person, that person took my payment and instead of trying to fix the mistake they blocked me and disabled my account. So now they have my device and someone else out there in the world has my payment. I literally showed them proof they sent the payment to the wrong person and they didn’t care. What a bunch of thieves.

I really hope people think twice about using an unethical company like this.

Easy hassle free

I’ve used this service a couple times. Every time it’s been smooth no hassle. They have always agreed with my description of the item and pay accordingly.

Use BuyBackWorld!

I sold my iPhone 6 to BuyBackWorld. They gave me the same amount of money they offered, which was the highest on the market! I highly recommend BuyBackWorld, do it! :)

These guys were outstanding

These guys were outstanding. Communication was first class and personalized to my situation. I've got more "old tech" in my drawers and will definitely get around to offering it up to these folks as first dibs. Five stars from this happy customer.
