WHAT WE CHECK
Before a Refurbished Device Leaves Us
Every refurbished device goes through key preparation steps before it is packed for dispatch.
Inspection
Device condition, model details and visible signs of use are checked first.
Data Wiping
Previous user data is removed before the device is prepared for resale.
Function Testing
Screen, battery, charging, cameras and core features are tested.
Cleaning
Devices are cleaned and prepared carefully for their next owner.
Final QA
A final check is completed before the device is packed for dispatch.
OUR PROCESS
How We Prepare Refurbished Devices
Every refurbished device follows a practical preparation process before it is listed or dispatched. The aim is to check key details, remove previous user data, test core functions and prepare the device clearly for its next owner.
Initial Inspection
We check the device model, condition and visible signs of use so we can understand its starting condition before further checks are completed.
IMEI & Network Checks
Where applicable, we check key device identifiers and network status before preparing the device for resale.
Secure Data Wiping
Previous user data is removed and the device is reset before being prepared for a new customer.
Function Testing
Core features are tested, including the screen, cameras, speaker, microphone, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other everyday functions.
Battery & Charging Checks
Battery performance and charging behaviour are checked so customers can use the device with confidence.
Cleaning & Preparation
The device is cleaned and prepared carefully before it is graded, photographed or packed for dispatch.
Condition Grading
The device is graded based on its cosmetic condition, helping customers understand what to expect before they order.
Final Quality Check
Before dispatch, the device receives a final check and is packed carefully for delivery.
DEVICE TESTING
What We Test Before Sale
Refurbished devices are checked for key everyday functions before they are listed or dispatched. The exact checks may vary depending on the device model, but our aim is to confirm the essential features customers rely on.
Prepared for a New Owner
Before a refurbished device is sold, previous user data is removed and the device is reset as part of our preparation process.
Our aim is simple: the customer should receive a clean device that is ready to set up as their own.
Data wiping is part of the same process that includes inspection, testing, cleaning and final quality checks.
Privacy is part of the process
Each refurbished device is prepared so the next customer can start fresh when setting it up.
Cleaned and prepared with care
Devices are cleaned and prepared before they are packed, helping customers receive an order that feels cared for from the moment it arrives.
Carefully Prepared Before Dispatch
A refurbished phone should not feel like it has simply been passed from one owner to another. Before dispatch, devices are cleaned and prepared so they are ready for the next customer.
This preparation sits alongside our inspection, testing, data wiping and grading process. It helps us check the device carefully and present it honestly before it reaches the customer.
The result is a more confident buying experience, with clear information before purchase and a device that has been prepared before it leaves us.
Clear Condition Information Before You Buy
Every refurbished device is graded based on its cosmetic condition. This helps customers understand what to expect before placing an order.
Very light signs of use
A device in excellent cosmetic condition with only very minor signs of previous use. Product pages should always be checked for the exact condition details.
Light visible wear
A device with light signs of use, such as small marks or minor cosmetic wear. It is tested and prepared before sale.
More noticeable cosmetic wear
A device with more visible signs of previous use, while still being checked, prepared and described clearly before purchase.
Packed for Dispatch
Before a refurbished device leaves us, it goes through a final check to make sure the key preparation steps have been completed.
The device is then packed carefully for dispatch, so customers receive an order that has been checked, cleaned, prepared and handled with care.
