Timeframes

  • You have 14 days to ship your item(s) from the time you accept an offer on our website and are issued a shipping label. During this 14-day period your offer price is “locked” & not subject to any price changes (increases or decreases) advertised on the Site or in the Service. If you ship your item(s) after this 14-day period, your offer will be subject to the price at the time of evaluation (as opposed to the time at which you shipped your item(s)). Your ship date will be decided based solely on the manifest/acceptance scan provided by the shipping carrier. This 14-day price lock period is only applicable if your shipped item(s) exactly matches all of the specifications you selected in your offer details. If we determine your items differ from those specifications during our post-receipt evaluation, we reserve the right to offer a revised amount reflective of the corrected specifications.
  • In the event we determine, after evaluation, that your item(s) does not match the specifications you have selected in your offer details, we will send you an email regarding your revised offer amount. You have 6 days to respond to this correspondence by either accepting or rejecting the revised offer amount. Your response must be sent via email, directly to the email address and email thread that we used to contact you. Furthermore, you must respond by using the email address at which we initially emailed you. If you do not send a response within 6 days, you will be deemed to have agreed to sell your item to us at the revised offer amount. If your response does not contain a clear and direct acceptance or rejection of our revised offer amount, we reserve the right to rescind any revised offer or send additional revised offers at any point in the communication process.
  • GadgetGone shall use commercially reasonable efforts to evaluate all items within TWO (2) business days from the date we receive your item(s). Your item(s) will not be deemed received at our office until ONE (1) business day after the carrier has updated the package status to “delivered”. While rare, we sometimes fall short of our TWO (2) business day evaluation goal. You agree to allow us a maximum of SEVEN (7) business days after we have received your item(s) to perform an evaluation and notify you of our findings. If we exceed this timeframe you have the right to request that we ship your item(s) back to the address you provided us in your offer details; provided, however, that this right shall expire when we send you notice that we have completed our evaluation. If you do not request that we send back your item(s), it (they) will remain in queue for evaluation.
  • We will notify you if and when we have initiated your payment. The amount of time it takes to receive your payment will vary depending on the payment method you selected in your offer details. Typically, electronic payments such as PayPal and Amazon will be delivered the same business day. Mailed checks are sent via a USPS First Class Letter & typically take 2-5 business days to arrive at your address. If you have not received a mailed check after 7 business days, you may request a replacement.  These time frames may vary during state or federal states of emergency (e.g., during a pandemic).

Evaluation Process & Item Conditions

  • The evaluation process consists of a series of functional and physical tests & inspections on the item(s) you have sent us. After we have completed our evaluation, we then reference the results against the details you have selected in your offer details. If your offer details do not align with our evaluation, we will send you an email notifying you of the discrepancies and a revised offer amount. Designating the incorrect model, incorrect hardware specifications, or incorrect condition category are the most common reasons for receiving a revised offer amount. A revised offer amount can be either lower or higher than your initially quoted amount depending on our findings during the evaluation. For example, we may offer you more money if you sent a device with higher or more advanced specifications than what was listed in your offer details. We maintain full control over our proprietary evaluation process and reserve the right to revise any offer based on the outcome of our evaluation.
  • When receiving a quote on or through the Site or the Service you are required to select a “condition” category for most items. The condition category descriptions are broadly outlined for each product. To view these descriptions, you must select the circular “i” icon next to the condition field on product pages. While these condition descriptions are designed to be as clear and concise as possible, misunderstandings and disagreements on their interpretation do sometimes occur. Upon evaluation of an item, we reserve the right, in our reasonable discretion, to revise the condition category you have selected for any item to the one we feel is most appropriate.
  • We will generally only offer an amount lower than the advertised price if 1) your item shows extreme damage (e.g., if it was run over by a truck),2) is missing components (e.g., you or someone else removed them for whatever reason), or 3) if you send us your item(s) outside of the 14-day price lock period. We will determine the timing of any modified offer price in our sole discretion.
  • We will notify you if any of your items have been adjusted to a newly revised offer amount. You have the right to accept or deny this offer. If you accept the offer, we will send your payment at the agreed upon offer price. If you reject the offer, we will ship those item(s) back to you. If you sent multiple items to us, you may only reject the offer for, and request that we mail back the items that have been revised with a new offer amount. We will not send back items that maintain their originally offered value after evaluation. Any items with respect to which you reject a revised offer will be returned to you, and we will send payment for the remaining items.
  • You represent and warrant that any items sold to us will never be reported as lost or stolen by you or any third party. In the event an item you sold to us and received payment for is reported as lost or stolen, you agree to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, and reimburse GadgetGone in the exact amount we paid you for that item, plus any costs or expenses incurred by GadgetGone arising out of or related to the lost or stolen report.
  • You agree to format and reset your items to default factory settings (hard reset) and remove all information and data (whether personal or otherwise) from your items prior to shipping them to us. You agree to release GadgetGone from any liability, and waive any loss or damages incurred from unauthorized use of data which was not deleted from your items. Furthermore, you agree to release GadgetGone from any liability and waive any loss or damages caused, directly or indirectly, by the deleting of data on a shipped item.
  • You agree to cancel and terminate any active wireless network carrier service plans (voice, data, and otherwise) for any applicable items you send us. GadgetGone will not be held responsible for, and you shall indemnify, defend, and hold GadgetGone harmless from and against any charges, fees, loss, damages or data breach caused as a result of your failure to remove an active wireless network carrier service plan from your items.
  • You agree to disable any software or hardware based anti-tampering, anti-theft, anti-loss, and gps tracking and location mechanisms active on your item(s) prior to shipping to us.  By way of example, and without limitation, this clause shall be interpreted to include passwords, pattern locks, fingerprint locks, face id locks, iCloud locks, find my iPhone, find my mac, google cloud locks, and find my android.
  • You represent and warrant that your items have not been hacked or modified, including, by way of example and without limitation, jailbroken, mod-chipped, or rooted, as those terms are commonly understood in the industry.
  • GadgetGone reserves the right to terminate any outstanding offer or refuse payment for any item. In the event we refuse to pay you for an item, it will be returned to you. Typically, we will only exercise this right if your package appears damaged, empty, or suspicious; or if the item itself appears to be substantially out of conformance with how it was described.

  • In the event an item is returned to you, you acknowledge and agree that GadgetGone is only responsible for returning items for which you received a quote. GadgetGone cannot guarantee that accessories or any other non-quoted items you sent us will be returned. This includes, by way of example only and without limitation, items such as (but not limited to) SIM cards, cases, chargers, screen protectors, original boxes, earbuds, etc. In addition, if your item is eligible for a free return, we agree to pay for postage and other shipping related charges for your quoted items ONLY. If we still have and are able to ship back non-essential accessories you must pay the difference in postage to receive those items back.

Payments, Prices and Ownership

  • If we purchase an item from you, we will facilitate your payment utilizing the payment method you requested via the offer details for that item. We are not responsible for any inaccurate or incomplete information related to payment details you have provided to us.

A request to change your payment method or the means in which your payment is delivered is not guaranteed.
  • With respect to items you send us, title transfers to GadgetGone promptly after your payment is issued.
  • PayPal charges a fee (currently 2.9% of the transaction + .30) for accepting any payment received for the purchase of goods or services. If you select PayPal in your offer details you will be responsible for, and GadgetGone will not reimburse this fee.

  • In the event of a pricing error on our behalf, GadgetGone maintains the right to rescind any outstanding offers that contain the erroneous price.
  • Any Price Match requests will be honored at our sole discretion.
