Good service
April 5, 2019

The whole process is easy enough, and the staff are friendly as can be. Obviously a bit more involved than just selling a phone for cash instantly, but think of it as a consignment shop for phones.

We have a decent experience with GetOrchard. The shipping was fast and the customer service was also good. We got a personalized response when we bought up the issue.

***
BE AWARE! That the photos you see on the website is not the actual physical unit you'll be getting!
***

I purchased an iPhone 5S for my wife over the Christmas and the website listed it as "very good condition". However, when we got the actual unit, it was far from "very good".

The iPhone 5S has a significant dent on the top right corner, a couple of scratches in the back and finally, dust in the front camera len (I don't even know how it is possible to get dust in there).

Overall, the shopping experience is decent, I just wish I knew that GetOrchard defines "very good condition" as having a dent on the phone and scratches.

They responded promptly and extended our 30 days no risk return to 45 days. We're still left feeling a bit ripped off. We will buy again in the future if need arises. But just change our expectation for our next buying experience.

Ochard, my go to place.
January 28, 2017

I was full of fears but the staff and online support was so great and the phone was in such good condition that I will never buy a new phone again! Orchard is my go to place! Sorry, two sentences.

Brilliant!
October 30, 2014

Brilliant! It was an absolutely painless experience from start to finish. It starts by using an app to determine the value of your phone. This is a very novel idea, and it works flawlessly. After a few simple hardware tests and questions, you are presented with a value for your old device.
When you are ready to sell, Orchard sends you an envelope with a box, return shipping label and everything else you need to safely deliver your old device to them free of charge. You are provided several options of how quickly you want them to sell your phone. The longest time is three weeks, which I chose and isn't long at all. The longer you're wiling to wait, the more money you will get.

With Orchard being a startup company, they don't have much of a user base. This made me uncomfortable at first, but I'm glad I decided to try them out. Their process is simple and free, and I was able to get almost $300 for my iPhone 5 to put towards an iPhone 6 Plus. Their trade in values are easily the best in the market, and they do exactly what they say they do.

So if you're looking to get some money for that old iPhone, and you want to help out a very deserving fledgling Canadian company, I would encourage you to use Orchard, because I truely believe there is no better choice out there.

Good experience

Friendly, responsive customer service. I was misinformed about the price I would get for my phone, but they cleared up their miscommunication quickly. Overall a good option for selling an old phone.

Great experience

Everything was simple and smooth and obviously a lot cheaper than buying a new iPhone. I felt safe about the purchase, got the phone in 2 days. Perfect.

I have sold 3 phones through Orchard and the transactions has been seamless. A super easy way to sell your phone for little effort, for a great price. All the staff are kind, understanding, and really want you to get the most money possible for your phone. Once you download the app to quote your phone, they send you a box and a shipping label and you simply just package up your phone and bring it to the post office. Once they receive your phone, they again, quote your phone (usually for the same price as the original quote). You have the option to select a quick sale, so receiving less money but right away or the most amount of money after a four week window. I am all for selling things on kijiji but honestly, being a student is quite busy and I just do not always have the time to put in the effort to sell something this way. Orchard has allowed me to still make a decent amount of money with literally zero effort. I trust that they do their job well, and that I will receive an e transfer at the end of my selling window. I will definitely continue to use Orchard and spread the word!

The buying process was incredibly easy. The iphone 5s shipped out fast and the condition was exactly as described - like new. No scratches or issues whatsoever. Excellent service at fair prices.

I have sold 2 units with GetOrchard & on both occasions I was pleasantly suprised to be given a better price than that originally quoted (which I considered fair at the time) I recommend that if you have a unit to sell, especially if you have kept the item in good condition, you will not receive a better price, or a more convenient service on the Internet in Canada.

They sold my phone as promised. The process is easy and very well organized. If you want to sell your phone without all the hassle and fees like eBay, GetOrchard is the right choice.
