I found here some really cool and authentic products at low prices! So happy with the service, thank you!
Selling fees much more reasonable and fairly smooth process. Would prefer this most of the time over Ebay.
Highly recommend
Item was exactly as seller described and arrived shortly after sale. Overall very satisfied with transaction on Swappa.
Selling on Swappa is really peace of mind since I know that the overall experience would be excellent!
If you know what you're looking for, swappa has it all, and their feedback system is next to foolproof.
Flawless transaction. Easy to see seller reviews and details. I will make another purchase in the next two weeks.
Great site. Listings are approved by Swappa. Money back guarantee. We can interact with the seller through messages.
A pleasant surprise actually, will definitely refer and buy again. Prompt shipping, as described, great customer service.
My first time using Swappa, easy thing went very well, great product and price. I will be back for future needs.
It was my first time trying this site and come to find out Im happy that its very legit no Scams nor scandals. Thank You Swappa!
Bought AT&T note 4, better than described near mint, shipping speed and packaging were excellent! 10 stars.
Buy from this dude!
I've bought a couple of phones on Swappa. Much safer than ebay. I feel confident that the devices are as described and will be shipped quickly.
I don't think I'll ever buy another phone elsewhere. I'm very happy with my purchase.
Thanks swappa!
This was the 3rd pre owned iphone 5s 32gb gold we ordered for my teens Christmas present. Cosmeticaly and the functionality of Mytecell"s iphone was of superior quality in comparison to the 2 devices we received prior. 1st one from Amazon "certified refurb, excellent condition $320" but a full battery would be depleted within 20 min, overheated, and screen freezes. 2nd also from Amazon(thinking 1st was just a fluke) "certified refurb, like new $301" wasn't the same model as advertised(I did double check before purchase), but one orig. Locked to a carrier in China that had registration and signal problems and certain features were restricted. As a parent I felt horrible seeing her excitement than disappointment than waiting for return process. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HONEST AND SELLING A SOLID DEVICE. Also, with the extra money left over bought a couple of nice cases for it.
This is my 2nd time buying from swappa sellers and each one went great and better than expected! Sellers are honest!
Much better than trying to get a deal. Glad I found this deal! What a timesaver and great for Christmas presents!
Buyer beware, Swappa states online that it will assist with fraud or bad sellers, but when you contact them they will use personal opinion to judge the sale. If you are buying a GSM phone and try and use it on any other service besides the provider the phone is listed under they will disregard assisting with the bad sale even if the phone is actually faulty. Dont trust this site, its customer service is a joke.
*Update*
I will let it be known that I had purchased an LG G2 from a Swappa seller, and everything worked perfectly. I came back to Swappa to purchase my second LG G2 and that's where this issue stemmed from. The phone did not work out of the box perfectly, after a week I messaged about a return but the seller offered advice on how to resolve the issues I was having. I should have pushed for a return immediately, but I stuck it out. This was my mistake because I should have pushed for a refund immediately. After numerous comments throughout a month, I couldn't take it anymore and asked for a refund instead of crappy advice from the seller. The seller threw a fit, and things got mean. The Swappa Rep at the time said they wouldn't back me up on the return if the seller refused because I was not using the phone with the carrier the phone was for. I let the rep know the first phone I bought worked perfectly, so that should be a clear indication that something is wrong with the phone. The rep did not agree with me, and still stuck by the buyer. PayPal on the other hand did a proper investigation on the issue and I got my money back. If you buy through Swappa just follow these guidelines and know these things:
1. More than one rep will be handling your complaint, so be ready to be confused at times.
2. If the phone is not working properly in the first week of use, then return it.
3. Always pay with PayPal, it will save you if there is an issue.
I have been in a contact with a Rep since I made this review, and the Swappa Rep has been extremely helpful and polite. I just wish I got this type of treatment when I had tried returning the phone.

Answer: Yes, you should remove and keep your SIM card when you sell your used phone. SIM cards are tied to your account, so are not transferable. More information and why in our FAQ: https://swappa.com/faq/sell/sim_card_included
Answer: Because they are scammers and a holes. They can't be bothered with you. Awful site. Use eBay instead.
Answer: Swappa guarantees it which goes above and beyond paypal. They are running IMEI checks and they do a great job. It's on you when you receive your phone to go through the phone check list to make sure it's good, checking cameras, microphones wfi, bluetooth, water damage check, things like that. Its really worry free buying.
Answer: Contact Swappa support. If an item is not as described by seller, the buyer is entitle to a refund.
Answer: Most sellers don't ship to African countries. This is because they include a reasonable fee on their prices to cover for shipping in the US, I guess shipping to Africa would come at a higher cost and they seem to be avoiding that for whatever reason. However, you can research and register for a freight forwarding company and have your orders shipped to them. In turn, these companies will forward your order to you when they receive it. As I pointed out before, this is something you have to read about and carefully consider. Hope that helps.
