I used an online buyback site last year for my old laptop. It was super easy because they sent me a prepaid shipping box. The quote was lower than what I might have gotten selling it directly to a person, but the sheer convenience was completely worth it.

The appeal of aggregator sites is that you can often dump everything into one box and be done with it. However, the initial quote they give you online is often heavily revised downward once they actually inspect the items, especially if they find microscopic scratches you didn’t notice. It’s a very common frustration, and you’ll frequently see people bringing up buybackworld when discussing how these companies handle the final valuation process compared to their initial online estimates. If you are going that route, make sure to take detailed photos of your devices before shipping them off as proof of their condition.
