"This is the third phone over the years I have sold back to Gazelle. Way better than throwing it in a drawer and having it become useless. At least it has a chance at a second life for someone."

"I did a trade-in of an iPad Pro 12.9 256GB Gray Wi-Fi Only in near perfect condition. Thinking I was protecting myself on the rare chance there was a mishap, I took photos of the front and back prior to packaging and sending off to Gazelle. Gazelle received my device soon thereafter (Nov 15 2023), assessed my trade-in as scratched in excess and they downgraded my valuation from $469 to $216. If the iPad I traded in is indeed now scratched, it was done after receiving the device by Gazelle.I used Gazelles packaging and followed their instructions. After learning of the downgrade in validation, I called (on Nov 15) provided photo evidence and asked for an escalation to re-examine, hoping they made an honest mistake. 3 weeks later and after many phone calls and unfulfilled promises, I hear the same thing every time I call: We dont have a status update, we are sending an email to the warehouse, you will receive an update directly from the warehouse in 2-3 days. I dont know if this is fraud, incompetence, or theft but I am out $469 on a trade-in of a perfectly good device. I really wish I would have taken what Apple offered, $400. Yes, I am ****! I really wish I would have researched what I thought was a company with a stellar history. With very little hope Gazelle will actually re-examine my device and value it fairly (in line with its condition on trade-in as documented by the included photos), I now am in a state of disgust and feel like I probably lost $469 that I really could have put to good use this Christmas season. User's recommendation: Do NOT trust your trade-in devices with Gazelle. It’s literally not worth it and just might leave you with nothing to show like me."

"I bought an iPhone from Gazelle in December 2022 that was supposed to be unlocked. It wasn’t. I paid extra for an unlocked version but Gazelle cheated me out of my money!

"Do not expect to receive the rate they quote you when trading in your phone. Once you send it in and they "inspect" it (which takes forever, by the way), they'll make up reasons to reduce the payment, stating there are "more than the acceptable number of scratches." They also stated they were unable to wipe the device which is complete bunk as I wiped the device before sending it. While going through this nonsense and waiting for them to send the device back after declining their lowball counteroffer, you'll lose out on the better offers from more reputable companies."

"Easy & efficient. I received my check in about 2 weeks. I will use them again. "

"It was my second time using Gazelle. Both times were so easy and fast and even got more than the estimate! "

"Way Above fair price. Very easy process. Excellent all the way around. "

"Bait and Switch fraud scam! Gave me an offer and now claim that my perfect phone has “scratches” on it, which it doesn’t and they will adjust their offer from $579 to $344. My phone is perfect, always had tempered glass screen protector and in a heavy duty case since new, Gazelle is a total scam! This is a classic bait and switch and they are just hoping to catch enough people to make this fraud worthwhile."

"Have used Gazelle in the past, and they were great. Got a valuation on an iPhone 8 to sell them. Phone was in like new, pristine condition. Always in a case, so not a scratch anywhere. Looks brand new. Was quoted $64 and mailed it in. They emailed back that the phone had way too many scratches to be considered in good condition, and offered $40 instead. Asked for the phone back. Received it, and it is (still) pristine, not a hint of a scratch anywhere. Seems they have now resorted to lying to customers and not honoring their initial offer, assuming most customers who have already sent in their phone will just accept the new low-ball amount. Don’t deal with these crooks. There are other places, like Best Buy, and even Apple that will pay top dollar. It may be for store credit, but at least they don’t try and deliberately con you."

"On 9/20/2023 gazelle promised me payment for my iPhone and after more than 30 days I still have not received it. Not will they return phone. No one I have spoken to will help. "

"This was my first time trading in my old devices, it was quick and easy overall had a good experience."

"They made a mistake in receiving the phone I wanted to sell them. As a result they paid me $78 less than what they originally offered. I tried calling and emailing them to explain the problem to them, but could never communicate with them. The people who answer the phone do not have any information and are not able to help. My emails go unanswered. I consider them very dishonest. "

"The whole process was extremely simple from the beginning. They sent me the box, I packed up my phone, and about a week later I got money deposited into my account. Pricing was extremely reasonable and more than competitors! "

"Have not rreveived payment"

"More then expected! Awesome "
