My item has been regraded. Why is this?

Once your order reaches us it will undergo a series of quality checks to ensure that it matches the condition you selected. If, after the assessment, the device you've sent does not match this condition, it'll be regraded and you'll be offered a revised price.

All of our quality assessments are carried out by trained technicians using industry-leading software in a high-tech environment. We train every technician to the highest of standards based on our experience assessing hundreds of thousands of devices.

Our process has been developed over many years, and we’re confident it provides highly accurate results.

Other trade-in services will use a similar process, although to varying degrees of accuracy! 

The revised offer will be sent to you via email; any reason(s) for the price revision will be clearly stated along with the option to accept or decline the offer. You'll then have 14 days to decide whether you'd like to accept or decline the new price.

If you choose to accept the revised price, we'll complete the order and finalise your payment to clear in your account within one working day, provided that you accept the offer before 2pm. If you accept the offer after 2pm, payment will be released the following day.

If you choose to decline the revised price, we'll return your device free of charge. Once you've declined the offer, your item will be dispatched the next working day. After your item has left our warehouse, you should expect delivery to take place within 2-3 working days. When your item has been dispatched, we'll email you the tracking number so you can follow the progress of the delivery.
