SellYourCalculators

I had never heard of Orchard but I searched for phone deals and their site offered good prices. I googled them to find reviews but nothing... but I went forward with it because they promise the 5 point checks or whatever (so no lemons) and they also give you 30 days to return if you're unsatisfied. I live in rural British Columbia so the online seemed the best way to go. The phone arrived on the exact day they said it would about a week after i put in my order. I picked it up at the post office and it works great thus far (day 3). I think they have a good thing going here :) Hopefully I don't break this phone but if I do, I might just be back!

I am very unsatisfied with what I received for the $109 calculator I sent them, I didnt even get enough for a good burger in return.

Nothing wrong with at all, no stickers, names, scratches. I only used it on tests, during class I just used the grapher on my ipad. So I used the one I sent them like about a dozen days total.

But they are no different than the book store which sells you $200 bucks, and buys them back from you for $3 at semester end. Or game stop that sells you $40 games, and buys them back from you for $0.50.
Same deal with pawn shops.

The big differece is that if you feel insulted by the offers you get from your bookstore or game stop, you can just put away what you brought them and be on your way.

With these guys, you have to pay them to get your item back or you dont get them back period.

But I definetly admit getting jipped by them was entirely my fault, I should have seen the red flags. Wish I had found this site earlier.

I keep asking myself why I sent a calculator to some site hundreds of miles away hoping to get some money for it, when I am surrounded by potential buyers 24 seven in the dorm buildings!

My friends who were also done with financial classes simply sold their calculator on the first day of class by going to the math lecture hall before classes began and asking student by student if they wanted to buy it. They got $75 and $90 bucks for theirs, but the $90 bucks was for the silver edition not the regular 83 plus.

And me? By then, I had already spent what I received from sellyourcalculators.com at the parking meter that same day.

And I also want to apply this review to texas instruments, those calculators do not cost much to make now, you can already get a cheap tablet for 100 bucks, why is that their calculators which have not changed much in the last 20 years still cost 100+ bucks?
