Q: My mac is slow and I think my battery might be dead, is there any way I can check the health of my battery before I select a condition?

If you have a Mac you can start by using Apple’s own built in diagnostics to find out if there is any hardware issues, please follow the steps here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204054#builtin. If you don’t find any issues with Apple Diagnostics the next step will be to take it to an authorised service for a check or send it in to our workshop for a full service check. Please note that if our technicians find any major functional defects we may have to amend the price quote you receive via our website or decline the purchase.

Q: Why do I get £0 value for my device?

There may be a few reasons why mResell will not be able to buy a device. If a device has a functional defect or major cosmetic defect, then the model may be too expensive or uneconomical to repair and resell. However, in order for us to find the exact reason for your valuation, please provide us with your product type and model, serial number and what answers you provided to our additional questions, and we will get back to you.

Q: I have always had my iPhone in a protective case, but when I took it off, the case left marks on the phone. Will this affect the value?

If the marks are ‘uncleanable’ this will affect the price, as you will have to select the condition ‘Minor cosmetic defect’. Please make sure to clean and remove any stickers before sending in your product. If you are unsure what donation to select based on the marks, please feel free to send us an email with photos and we will better be able to provide an accurate quote.

Q: I sent my product to you yesterday. When will I receive my money?

Once the product has arrived at our workshop it goes in the queue for the service checks. It can take up to 3-5 business days for the checks to be completed, this will depend on our technicians' work load and the place of your device in the queue. Once the service checks have been completed and your device has passed all the tests your payment will be made within another 2-3 business days. If our technicians find any faults or missing accessories that we were not previously informed of you will be contacted directly, and the process may take a little longer.

Q: Do I need to erase my data before I send my product?

No, this is not necessary. When your product arrives at our workshop, our technicians will start by wiping the hard drive(s) clean and ensure that all data is safely erased. We always use the standard wipe option. If you are particularly concerned about the information on a product you are about to sell to us, we advice you to erase it yourself before sending the product to us.

Q: What will happen to my product when it arrives at the service centre?

Once your product arrives at mResell Service a technician will conduct a thorough service control. The technician will start by doing a visual inspection to make sure that the cosmetic state of the product and included accessories matches what you indicated when creating the selling order. Then the technician will inspect the inside of your device as well as clean it. The service checks are concluded by running Apple’s diagnostic programs to make sure that everything is fully functional. Once all tests are completed the technician will compile a report and send it to us at mResell so that we can decide if the product meets the standards of your selected condition. If everything matches and no faults were found, we will proceed with your payment. Please note that if there is a discrepancy between the actual and stated condition, we will get back to you with an adjusted price offer.
