How quickly will I get paid for my iPad 5?

We process payments within 48 hours of receiving and inspecting your device. Most customers receive their money within 2-3 business days total. You can choose between PayPal (fastest), Interac e-Transfer, or traditional cheque.

What if my iPad 5 doesn't match the condition I selected?

If we determine your device is in a different condition than selected, we'll email you a revised offer immediately. You can accept the new price or request your device back at no cost to you. We cover return shipping - our Ironclad Guarantee means you never pay a penny.

Do I need to include the original box and accessories?

No! We only need the device itself. You don't need the original box, charger, cable, or any accessories. Your quote is based solely on the device. However, please remove any cases or screen protectors before shipping.

Is my personal data safe when I sell my iPad 5?

Absolutely. We recommend factory resetting your device before shipping (we provide instructions). As an extra security measure, we perform certified data erasure on all devices using industry-standard software, ensuring your personal information is completely removed.

What if my iPad 5 is blacklisted or has an outstanding balance?

We cannot accept blacklisted devices or phones with outstanding carrier balances. Please ensure your device is fully paid off and in good standing with your carrier before sending it. If we discover it's blacklisted during inspection, we'll return it to you.

Can I sell a broken iPad 5?

Yes! We accept devices with cracked screens, battery issues, and other problems. Simply select 'Broken' as your condition when getting your quote. While the value will be lower than working devices, you'll still get cash for your broken phone.

How do I ship my device to you?

After you accept your quote, we'll email you a prepaid shipping label immediately. Just pack your device securely (we recommend bubble wrap), attach the label, and drop it off at any Canada Post location. Shipping is completely free.

What happens if my device gets damaged during shipping?

If your properly packaged device is damaged during shipping to us, we'll work with the carrier to file a claim. We recommend taking photos of your device and packaging before shipping as documentation. Our customer service team will guide you through the process.

Can I change my mind after getting a quote?

Yes! Your quote is an offer with no obligation. You can decide not to proceed at any time before shipping your device. Even after shipping, if you decline our inspection offer, we'll return your device for free.

Why is GizmoGrind's offer higher than carrier trade-ins?

Unlike carriers who only offer bill credits that lock you into contracts, we pay actual cash. We also specialize in device buyback, allowing us to offer competitive prices. Plus, we accept all conditions and don't require you to purchase anything.
