Sell Now, Buy Back Later: How the Playgame Buy-Back Plan Works
With the Playgame Buy-Back plan you sell your device for instant cash today and keep the right to buy back your exact device within 7, 15 or 30 days. Your device is sealed and stored securely while you decide. If you don’t buy it back in time, it is released for resale.
Sometimes you need cash quickly but you’re not ready to say goodbye to your phone or laptop. The Buy-Back plan is built for exactly that moment – a fast, transparent alternative to selling for good.
How it works – 4 steps
- Get your quote online and choose the Buy-Back option.
- Quick check at a store or with free doorstep pickup.
- Get paid on the spot and choose your window: 7, 15 or 30 days.
- Come back within your window to buy back your exact device – or let it go.
What happens to my device while I decide?
It is sealed in anti-static packaging and stored in a climate-controlled, 24/7 monitored secure area. It’s your exact device you get back – not a replacement.
How much does it cost to buy back?
Your repurchase price and conditions are explained and confirmed in writing when you sell. Read them before you sign, and keep your receipt – you’ll need it to buy back.
