Common questions about selling your Galaxy A Series A8 (2016)
Do I need to wipe the phone before sending it in?
Strongly recommended. Back up to iCloud or Google Drive, then sign out of iCloud / Google account and factory reset. We re-wipe on arrival via a DoD-grade pass, but signing out remotely prevents Activation Lock / FRP issues that could delay your payout.
What happens if the IMEI fails the blacklist check?
We notify you within 24 hours of receipt. If the device is reported lost/stolen, we cannot complete the buyback under federal anti-fence regulations. The device is returned at our cost.
How fast do I get paid?
Most sellers are paid within 2-3 business days of device receipt and inspection. Payment goes out via your chosen method (ACH, Zelle, PayPal, or check).
What if my phone has a cracked screen?
Pick the "Damaged" condition at quote. Our offer adjusts automatically — a cracked screen typically reduces the offer by 30-40% versus "Like New".
Do you accept carrier-locked phones?
Yes. Carrier-locked phones get a lower offer than unlocked at the same model + storage, but we accept all carriers (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, etc.).
Is there a minimum offer?
We list every model we buy along with the worst-case condition offer. If our system can't produce an offer for your device, you can use the manual quote form for a hand review.
