Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 33,907 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company.

Consumers also note the highly competitive prices, consistently reliable product conditions, and the remarkably smooth, straightforward trade-in process for selling old mobile devices.

MusicMagpie made selling my Apple Watch straightforward and hassle-free. The process was clear from start to finish, communication was prompt, and payment was received quickly once the item had been checked. A positive experience overall—I would happily use them again and recommend them to others.

BEWARE

BEWARE: when you buy, for example, an iPhone from Music Magpie, and there is a fault, it’s nearly impossible to get a refund. When you send it back (for a refund) they automatically repair it and send it back with no consultation. No response via emails. I didn’t want a repaired glitchy phone with likely further issues. It’s taken me weeks and weeks and having to re-post it back again, to finally get a refund for a glitchy phone. I will never buy there again unfortunately.

Good purchase

Good price delivered on time. Have only watched 1 of 3 films but know that if there is a problem they will sort it out. The films were reasonably priced.

Poor payment system


The service itself was fine, but the payment system is extremely poor. I was told that if my item was accepted before 3pm, I would receive payment the same day. It has now been over three working days and I still haven’t been paid.

Customer service is also disappointing — there’s no one to speak to, only slow email responses.

Based on my experience, I wouldn’t recommend their services.

Start to finish in 1 hour!

From going online to get a price to having the cash in my bank was about 1 hour! Wow!
Full price paid as advertised, took it to my local Timpson, they checked it over- money was in the bank within 5 mins! What an easy process!! Would defo recommend.

Perfect sale of my iPhone 14

Perfect sale of my iPhone 14. Phone checked at Timpsons and full payment made into my bank account in minutes. Felt a much safer system than sending phone away.

£500 within 5 mins!

The drop off at my local Timpsons was painless and quick. Within 5 minutes my phone had been inspected and I was offered the full £500 as quoted by music magpie online. The cash was in my bank account within 20 minutes (even at 4pm on a Friday). I would 100% recommend music magpie, especially using their Timpson same day service. They offer great prices which are usually higher than most high street stores.
