What reviewers say
AI generated
Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the exceptionally helpful staff and responsive communication maintained throughout the entire selling process. Reviewers often mention that payments are issued very quickly and efficiently directly into their bank accounts or provided through various gift card options.
However, some customers also noted that initial price quotes were significantly reduced after inspection due to unexpected claims about screen scratches or device wear. Consumers experienced considerable frustration when their devices were re-evaluated at much lower values than originally estimated on the website. A few reviewers felt that this practice was unfair during transactions.

Great way to easily make a little money from old devices!
I was a little skeptical dealing with Buyback Boss at first, but they proved to be faithful and sent me what I was offered (based on my honest description of my phone) once they received and tested the phone I sent to them within a reasonable amount of time!

My first time - I'd definitely use again
My first time using Buyback Boss, and I'd definitely do so again. Communication was very good throughout, and the offer price very fair. I was a little hesitant to set up my checking account for receiving payment (they do offer other options), but all went smoothly.

The whole process was quick, efficient and professional. I even got more than I was quoted, as my phone turned out to be in better condition than I had estimated. I was paid quickly via EFT to my bank account. I would 100% use Buyback Boss again and recommend to others. I feel I got an optimal payment to have it handled by a 3rd party (vs. selling it myself).

Trustworthy
The company was surprisingly honest & gave me more for the phone than the initial estimate. They were prompt, helpful and had a refreshing sense of humour. I would absolutely recommend them.

What a total waste of time and money
What a total waste of time and money. Buyback boss promises "no bait and switch" but that is exactly what they do! I sent my iPhone to them in perfect condition. I was the original owner and used it up until the day I sent them the phone. They tell me it is "blacklisted" and was reported lost/stolen. Absolute lie. They also said it had several scratches which it did not and had to requote the price. I had them send my phone back and of course they kept the original box that I sent it to them in. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Hi Steven,
I am very sorry that we upset you as that was not our intent. To clarify our findings, I have sent you through email a few of our IMEI reports for reference as to why we labeled your device as blacklisted.
For all devices, we check the carrier and IMEI status on SickW, Swappa's IMEI check, and the carrier specific as well. While we found that your device is only considered carrier locked to Spectrum mobile on SickW, we found that Spectrum is not marking the device as compatible on their website. With the device being locked to Spectrum but not compatible for activation with the network, it is our policy to mark a device as "blacklisted" because it cannot be activated by another carrier. It is not necessarily because the device is lost/stolen but could just be due to a misunderstanding by the network. Are you interested in contacting Spectrum to see if they can provide more information about the blocked status?
We did return the device to you at your request which we were happy to do free of charge.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with, I would be happy to help you!
Thank you,
Casey / People Operations Manager with Buyback Boss

Great Experience with Buyback Boss!
Buyback Boss was a great experience for me! Admittedly, I was nervous to send valuable devices in the mail based on an estimate that I thought could be a bait and switch situation, but that was not the case at all. I described my devices honestly, and after Buyback Boss received and inspected them, they actually increased the amount they paid me. That is incredible integrity on their end, because they were under no obligation to do that. If you have devices to sell, definitely consider Buyback Boss, it was a very good experience for me.

I have sent in 10 devices in the last couple of years, Buyback Boss price is fair. They have not tried to lowball me after i sent in the device once.

Said my offer would be a certain amount, sent the device in, then the tried to offer me a fraction of the original offer. When I called them out for it they raised their offer by 100% but still a fraction. This is definition of scammy and not transparent. I would never recommend them! The worst!!!!
