We buy it in any state

Most buyers reject locked or financed devices. We built TekBye to say yes — honestly and transparently — to the devices everyone else turns away.

Fully Paid Off

Clean IMEI, no locks — top-tier payout, straight to your pocket.

Financed

Still making payments? We’ll buy it — you keep handling your balance.

Blacklisted

Blocked IMEI or bad ESN — we still pay real money for the hardware.

Activation Locked

iCloud, Google or MDM locked — even stuck at the activation screen.

Above all, we never buy devices reported lost or stolen. Read our eligibility policy.

Devices we buy are refurbished and find new homes through trusted marketplaces:

eBay Back Market Reebelo Walmart Marketplace Newegg Mercari Swappa

Every device is history-verified with Phonecheck and wiped with certified erasure software before resale.

The TekBye difference

Built to be the buyer we’d want to sell to

We read the fine print at the big buyback sites — then wrote ours to be better.

Insured shipping — on us

If a properly packed device is lost or damaged in transit on our label, we pay your locked offer anyway. Most competitors put that risk on you.

Zero payout fees

The offer you accept is the amount you receive — to the penny. We absorb every processing fee on every payment method.

14-day price lock

Your offer holds for a full 14 days from checkout. As long as the carrier scans your package in that window, your price can’t drop.

Free returns, automatically

Don’t like a revised offer? Decline with one click and we ship your device back free. Never respond at all? We return it free automatically — we never force a price on you.

Certified data destruction

Every single device is wiped with certified erasure software on arrival — and any personal data found is destroyed, never accessed or shared.

Real humans, real address

We’re a registered Washington company with a published street address and a phone number a human actually answers: (360) 281-6222.

Seller stories

Don’t take our word for it

“Two other sites turned my financed iPhone away. TekBye quoted it in a minute, the label was in my inbox before I finished my coffee, and the money hit my Venmo two days after I shipped.”

Marcus T.Sold an iPhone 14 Pro · Portland, OR

“I was nervous mailing in three old iPads, but everything was exactly as promised. The offer never changed, and when I called with a question an actual person picked up. Unheard of.”

S
Sarah K.Sold 3 iPads · Vancouver, WA

“My cracked Galaxy got a revised offer after inspection — with photos and a clear explanation. Fair is fair, I accepted, and I was still paid the same afternoon. Class act.”

Good questions

Frequently asked questions

How do I find out what my device is worth?
Pick your model above, answer a few quick questions about its condition, and your offer appears instantly — no account, no email, no obligation. The price you see is the price we pay if your device matches your answers.
How long is my offer good for?
14 days from checkout. As long as the carrier scans in your package within that window, your price is locked — even if market prices drop while it’s in transit.
Do you buy financed, blacklisted, or activation-locked devices?
Yes — all three, each with its own honest pricing path. Just answer the lock-status question honestly at the end of your quote. The one device we never buy, in any condition, is one reported lost or stolen.
What about the data on my device?
Two layers of protection: our checkout confirmation walks you through backing up and factory-resetting, and every device we receive is wiped with certified erasure software regardless. Data we find is destroyed — never accessed or shared.
Is TekBye legitimate?
Fair question — this industry has earned some skepticism. We’re a registered Washington company operating since 2018, with a published street address in Vancouver, WA and a phone number a human answers: (360) 281-6222. If anything about your order ever feels off, call us.
