The Whiz Cells pays top dollar.

"I received $400.00 for my two iPhone 7s. Full offered price for one in excellent condition and half for one that was still under contract."

They are scammers

"I quoted a cell phone buy back through thewhizcells.com, they offered me $65. I sent them a working, used cell phone. I had recently upgraded and was pleasantly surprised that my old phone was worth something to someone. After they received it they graded it as broken and revised their offer to $5. I declined their offer since I had been using the phone up until the day before I sent it to them. Upon receiving my phone back I found that it would no longer power on or charge. When I contacted them about it they said that it was not their fault and said that all they do to test them is power them on. In their report they stated that it had randomly shut down after boot up. Obviously it was in better condition when they got it then when I got it back if it would boot at all. Unless all you want is $5 for your phone, don't send it to these guys."

The Best Place to Sell Old Cell Phones

iPhone Sale As Expected

"Sold an iPhone 6+ with cracked glass. Sale was executed flawlessly and quickly. Description of phone condition could have been more precise up front, as the Whiz found additional damage than was reported when I tried to sell directly to my carrier, ATT. Net was that the Whiz paid only $10 more than ATT offered. Still, the execution was flawless and I received my check on time. All communication and timelines for the return of the phone went without a hitch. I'd use them again."

not responsible

"I send in my device in working conditions with no cracks of any kind on it and in return, they send me a device with a shattered screen and a whole big enough to see the inside of my iPad. I contacted them and in response Travis said; "We are not responsible for damage in transit. However, I believe your package had $50 in insurance." $50 insurance won't replace the screen or the hole on my iPad, Amazon was offering me $70 more than they were and now I'm out of any money due to the cracked screen and nonfunctioning iPad. Beyond dissatisfied with this company and their customer service, I was never informed of them not being held responsible for damages or anything of the sort. I hope you have a different experience but I would be careful. "

“Hello,

Yes, the terms and conditions on the site state that we are not responsible for damage during transit to or from us. You agreed to this when you placed your order. This is the case with all the other recycling companies in their terms as well. I am sorry that you are unhappy but the reason your tablet was sent back is because it did not work. Again I am sorry it did not work out. Happy New Year!”

Not what I expected

"I shipped a almost flawless phone fhat had been triple checked before it was shipped. After they received it they contacted me and said the IS system in the phine was missing and they couldn't get it to work. They shipoed it back to me. I took it out of the bix and charged the phone. Its working perfectly with no problems. The OS system was still in this phone. Doesn't matter but would not recommend sending them a phone because they don't seem to know what they are doing."

Great, fast service

"Even though I didn't get the original quote price for my items, they still gave me more than others were offering. They were fast in fulfilling my order and were very discreet with my personal information. They fill a great service area with very good service."
