Retail / carrier trade-in
Convenient if you are already upgrading, but many programs use fixed trade-in values and may pay in store credit instead of cash. Get our cash offer first so you can compare what you actually receive.

Before you take another offer
Know what happens after the quote
The important difference is not just the first number you see. It is whether that number is cash, whether it can change later, and whether you still have the device when the final price is decided.
Online mail-in buyback
The online quote is usually conditional until the company receives and inspects the device. Once they have it, they can re-grade the condition and revise the offer under their inspection rules. If they lower it, your choice is typically to accept the new amount or wait for the device to be returned. With Max Cash, you know our offer while the device is still in your hands.
Pawn shop / general reseller
Pawn shops buy everything from jewelry and tools to electronics, so a phone, console or laptop is only one category to them. Electronics offers can be much lower than an electronics-focused buyer. Get the Max Cash number before you take a pawn-shop offer.
Max Cash Electronics 757
We only buy electronics. Tell us exactly what you have, get your cash offer before you drive, and decide if you want to sell. No mailing your device away just to learn the final number.
Why our offers can be higher
Electronics are our business
We price the exact device, not just a broad category. A Galaxy S26 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold7, PS5 Pro or higher-spec gaming laptop is treated as the device it actually is.
You also know our cash offer before you travel. If the number works for you, book the appointment. If it does not, you still have your device and can compare elsewhere.
Compare before you sell
Do this before you accept another offer
Get our cash offer first
Use the Max Cash number as your baseline before you trade in, pawn or mail the device anywhere.
Compare cash to cash
A $300 store-credit trade-in is not the same as $300 cash. Compare what you can actually spend anywhere.
Know who controls the final price
If a mail-in company can re-grade the device after it arrives, they control the final offer while they already have the device.
Keep the device until you are comfortable
With Max Cash, you can see the confirmed offer first and keep the device if the number does not work for you.

Quick questions
About our offers
Can Max Cash pay more than trade-ins, mail-in buyers or pawn shops?
Yes. On select devices, our recorded comparisons show Max Cash paid substantially more, including examples close to double. Your exact device still gets its own offer.
Do I know my Max Cash offer before I come in?
Yes. We confirm the cash offer before the appointment, so you can compare it before you make the trip or hand over the device.
Can a mail-in buyer lower the quote?
Yes, depending on that company’s policy. Many mail-in quotes are conditional until the device is received and inspected. The buyer can re-grade the condition and send a revised offer after your device is already in its possession. You may then have to choose between accepting the lower amount or having the device returned. Max Cash confirms your offer while the device is still with you.
