Hi all,

Im looking to sell/recycle my old note 9 and I have used the comparison sites to see which recycler offers the best price.

The problem I have is the ones who offer the highest I have never heard of and only seem to have trust pilot reviews which I am wary of.

Just wondered if you have any real life experience/recommendations?

Unless you're desperate...cex..

Otherwise prepare (you might not be) to be jerked around!

Depends on a grade and whether it’s unlocked.

Doesn’t exactly help when they offer nearly 50% more for taking an exchange voucher...in most cases.

Do CEX offer the same price instore?

Its mint and unlocked, and there is about £82 difference between the highest and lowest offer. Obviously I could get more on ebay but Im wary of been scammed and losing out on £300

Should be same, sometimes varies slightly (based on demand?).

Yes, if you're going to buy something from CEX then fine, otherwise I'd just take the hit if it means not getting messed about by dicks on ebay etc.

Looking at compare and recycle I would go with envirofone for £335 - use them lots without issue and never heard of the other higher ones.

I will see if the Mrs will take it to CEX and get a price as with envirofone by the time I have paid for insured postage there wont be any difference.
