They say they will pay within 2 days
They say they will pay within 2 days. They had my phone for 5 business days before responding and that was because I emailed them. They claimed my phone nicks and scratches. No way! My phone was in an Otterbox protective casing from the day I bought it. They received the phone a week ago and now they say it's only worth half their quote. I still haven't been paid. Lame
Update: I wrote the original post 3 days ago. The company followed up requesting my order number, which I supplied the next morning. Still have NOT been paid 3 days later.
Final Update: recell.io did finally pay me and we solved the differences. They were good with responding to my inquiries.

Rate shopped fo find the best offer for my iPhone 6s. They were the highest offer, and I was happy to get anything due to the phone being completely unusable. Fast payment and straightforward instructions made it quick and easy.
Seamless process
Was given a fair price and received payment in about a week from the day I dropped it in the mail. Will use again!
Very pleased
Very pleased! The whole process was a breeze... and emailing customer service was a breeze and I got quick replies. I mailed my phone on a Saturday, it was received Monday and money was in my PayPal account on Sunday. Definitely will be using them again! I got a very fair price for my phone also! They were very honest with their prices and very clear on what tier your phone could be appraised at.

Initially I was little hesitant to sell my phone with them by seeing the few 1 star negative reviews. But after had a nice experience with them, I realized that, it's absolutely fake review.
Recell.io gave me best offer. I sent my phone to them and they acknowledged the receipt of my phone.
After inspecting it they adjusted my offer, because they thought my phone wasn't an unlocked phone.
I wrote an email to them explaining it's an unlocked phone.
They again inspected it and honored my promised sale price.
Within few days I received my payment cheque.

They were fair and kept me informed each step of way. They sent me the price they quoted. It was a very good experience. I will use them again for sure!
Great price
Quick, simple and fast processing. Highest quote compared to every other company, and quote was accurate. They even eliminated the PayPal fee because the payment got delayed a few days.
Simple, fast and good payout
Very easy to send in and get updated and get paid quick
Quick quote and quick payment
Quick quote and quick payment. The process is so easy and the customer service is so responsive. Thank you!!!
Great website
Quick Process, Excellent Service, and Best Offer
Not only was this company the only one that would buy back my old damaged iPhone for more than $1, but everything was quick and easy! They kept me up to date through every step of the process, made instructions super clear, and promptly sent my check when they received my phone. You also get to talk to actual people which is nice for a change. They emailed me when they received my order asking for a general timeline as to when I would be shipping my phone, and I was able to respond to the email (not a no reply address) and receive a real, genuine human response. I would definitely use them in the future and would recommend them to anyone looking to sell their old phones/tablets.
I sold four phones to this company
I sold four phones to this company, each time I was given a reasonable dollar amount. Each interaction this company displayed nothing but pure professionalism. They were fantastic!
