Maingear, a seller of custom and prebuilt computers, has launched an instant trade-in program. This program is a collaboration with SELLIT9, a company specializing in recycling and refurbishment. The new service allows customers to trade in a variety of used electronics for instant credit towards the purchase of new Maingear desktop or laptop PCs.
Customers can exchange used technology such as laptops, phones, tablets, smartwatches, headphones, cameras, lenses, and microphones. The process provides an instant quote and an immediate Maingear gift card, eliminating the need to wait for shipping and inspection of the traded-in gear. A temporary hold is placed on the shopper's card until the traded-in items are verified.
Maingear stated that the program addresses rising component prices by allowing customers to use the value of their old tech. Until October 14, customers can receive an additional 5% on their trade-in value by using the code EXTRA5. SELLIT9, the partner, is a Canadian business with a 4.6/5 rating on TrustPilot and recently secured $4.1 million in funding for North American expansion.
