Savvy Eco-Conscious Consumers Resell Their Unwanted Technology

6 Signs it is time to Sell your Used Tablet

• You haven't touched it in months.
• You haven't upgraded in the last three years.
• Your tablet cannot run the latest software updates efficiently.
• The battery drains quickly.
• You keep running out of storage space.
• It does not sync with other devices in your household ecosystem.

How to Sell an Older Tablet?

If more than two of the above signs apply in your case, it is time to sell. You don't want to hesitate for too long as tablets, like any other household electronics, rapidly depreciate and become obsolete even faster than their computer counterparts.

To sell a tablet on our site, start by typing up your brand and model in the search window and click on "Get a Quote".

Pick your specific model and configuration, specify its cosmetic condition, provide details about functionality and accessories, and click "Calculate". Our site immediately provides valuation using your input data and the most recent information about the market price and current demand.

Then, click "Add to Cart" - "Get Paid" to fill out a checkout form.

Once your request comes through, we will email you a prepaid shipping label, which you can print or retrieve at the time of package drop-off.

The next step is to package the tablet in a sturdy box with plenty of cushioning to prevent damage in transit and send it out.

Once we receive and inspect your tablet, which typically takes no longer than two workdays (the same day in most cases), you get the payment sent via PayPal, CashApp, Venmo, Zelle, or check (seller's choice).

And that is how you sell a pre-owned tablet quickly and without hassle.

Why Sell?

For one, selling an old iPad, Microsoft Surface Pro, Galaxy Tab, or other model is the easiest way to extend its lifecycle while getting a few bucks back. It literally pays to go green.

Secondly, if you don't sell today, the next year might be too late. Updated tablets come out at least once a year; the resale markets become saturated with older releases, and their resale value decreases.

Thirdly, by putting working pre-owned gadgets back on the market, you give the opportunity to get inexpensive technology to those who cannot afford to buy brand new. This means your otherwise "decommissioned" tablet will be used for another three to five years instead of polluting the landfills.

My Tablet is too Old to Sell, What Now?

Even if evaluated at $0, you can still send us your old tablet for recycling. We will recycle it here in Chicago free of charge--just pay for shipping. Alternatively, you can recycle the tablet and other smaller-sized gadgets via any local Best Buy store. For more recycling resources in your area, please see here.
