Sent my calculators during a holiday week, arrived their post location on a Thursday and staff personal was helpful to get my order through before the weekend to be sure I got paid in time. They shifted thru the packages to find my package just to find mine. You just have to have patience and understand sometimes they are under staff during the holidays. Thanks so much for your assistance!
I sent them a calculator TI-89 almost new with cover. They promised to pay $41.00. It's been more then 5 weeks ago. No one answer the phone or messages. IT IS A SCAM! The reviews saying that they pay must be a long time ago but not now. IT IS A SCAM NOW. Don't sent your calculators or even buy any from this company unless you want to lose your money.

I sold them a calculator.
I sent a total of 6 calculators at the beginning of March I got paid for two of them I had to on each order which is three orders the last order that I sent I didn't got paid for it the other two I'm still waiting on they don't answer the phone they don't answer the email I've tried every number I've tried to Better Business Bureau nothing is working do not use the site I counted on this money for my son's graduation they screwed me Will Change review if I get paid
Do not send your calculator. You will never get your check. I have emailed and called multiple times and no response. I have written to the Better Business Bureau AND the Attorney General of New York to complain. This company is a SCAM.
I have left several messages by phone and e mail. No one responds and I haven't received any payment. I sent the 4 calculators! Don't use this site!
So, the day after I wrote my sarcasm filled, scalding review of Cash4calcs, I was proven completely wrong, and this new review is to eat crow! So here goes--The next day I tried calling the toll free number and was pleasantly surprised when customer service agent answered the line {period} I explained the circumstances and also let him know about my review that I had placed the night before titled ever get the itch in the roof of your mouth that only a gun barrel can scratch {period} the customer service agent apologized and said that he would have my account paid by the end of the day {period} this was no understatement {comma} my PayPal account notified me less than half an hour later that the full amount of $54 was deposited to my account {period} So give them a chance, they are backed up with the pandemic, they've got a shortage of employees, there are things going on beyond their control they will get you paid! I do encourage you to use the toll free number, hit zero if it goes to voicemail, and then hit zero again to transfer to an operator. Hopefully you'll get through to a real person and they will take care of you--kudos to cash4calcs for making things right!

Patience, little one, Patience,!!!
This is a scam. They suck. DO NOT send them anything. It's a total scam. Not pleased at all. Will never send anything to them again.

Sent in my used calculator and got paid on PayPal with even more money than I expected when I sent it in. Also had to email customer service for some help and they were very responsive and helpful.
I have contacted this company 3 times and finally received a reply that they just received my package. I know that's a lie because I placed a receipt notification with this package. I am now in the process of reporting this company to my local Attorney General's Office, FTC and Better Business Bureau. They can no longer continue business like this. I would have had more satisfaction just tossing my calculators then letting this company scam me. Order number *******
I sent in a calculator weeks ago and have not heard from cash4cals, no response to 4+ phone calls plus numerous emails. Extremely frustrated with this scam.
I sent in 2 calculators in mid December. The website is easy to use and the instruction is clear. I created an account online and has been following with site for status update. It changed from received, pending to paid. I got the check today. (Jan 12). So the whole process takes about a month, there is no hassle. And it pays as it promised. I will recommend this site
I was quoted $49 for my graphing calculator in very good condition. What I received was $28. They claimed that my calculator was in "poor condition" but it was not. Just know that if you send your calculator here, you won't get what you are quoted. I would not use them again as they are not honest.
So I sent my calculators to this company before reading the reviews and when I did you could imagine I was pretty worried I then tried to contact the company to find out if the reviews were warranted I called a ton of times and only ever talked to one person on the phone but was assured I would
Be paid it took about a month and a lot of emails checking on the progress of my items but justen made sure I got my money and in the end I would use them again they pay more for your items even tho it may take a little bit longer to get your money
I sent a calculator in and have tried to get in touch with them by calling the numbers that they provide on their website. Goes to voicemail and when you leave a message no-one calls back. I called 2 different numbers found on their site and each one goes to voicemail. Total scam. PLEASE take your buisness elsewhere.
Waiting for 2 months since "your check has been sent". Refuses to answer emails or phone from me & no replies to Better Business Bureau inquiries on my behalf. If I get my $23 I will change my review. Today (March 28) finally received a check for $21, not my quoted price which they were to send me (email dated 1/2/2019 said the check will arrive in 2-3 days). The check is from not "Cash4Calcs" but SellCalculators.com LLC. If you go to that webwite you will see calculators for sale (and a small box at the bottom noting they will buy your calculator if you email Cash4Calcs). They never answered my subsequent emails or phone calls, and did not respond to calls or letters from the BBB of NYC. No explanation of why the check is for $2 less than quoted and what they were to send. I suspect (no proof) that the company will buy your calcs, and resell them, and you will get your money, if any, when they get enough from re-selling them on the other website. This company is deceitful in many ways, and I'd never use them again for anything.
I have sent my calculators in going on 2 months ago and still have not received any payment. They have not called me back and I have not been able to get anyone To answer the phone, PLEASE take your business elsewhere, this is a complete scam. They have an office in Brooklyn for anyone else who this has happened too, check the better business brureau for this adress it's the only sauce I could think of to get your momey. Best of luck.
I sent in 2 TI 83 Plus calculators a month ago and still haven't received payment! I have called them 3 times and always get connected to voicemail. Nobody ever calls me back. I have emailed them 4 times, no response from any of them. I'm so mad at myself for not looking up reviews first and seeing that this has happened to several others. Hopefully I get my money someday... not holding my breath...
After reading some of the reviews on here, I was skeptical about working with this company. I had a TI-84 Graphing Calculator with the lid and the cord (still with the tie on it, because I never used it). They gave me an immediate estimate on their website, and sent me my label. I printed my label, packaged my calculator, and dropped it off at the post office, as instructed. It took just under two weeks to receive email correspondence from them, stating they had received my calculator, and the next day received email saying that it had been inspected and processed, and I was just waiting for my payment at this point. It took 3 days for the payment to be available to me via PayPal, and I cannot tell you how completely opposite of an experience I had then expected. I was expecting to wait forever, have a headache to deal with, multiple phone calls, etc. but instead it was easy, quick, and efficient for me to sell my calculator to this cash4cals, and I would absolutely use them again, as well as recommend this company.
I sent in my TI 84 plus silver calculator. I received a check in the mail which was suppose to be for $49 and was only for $44. I deposited into my account and it bounced. My bank said there account was closed. Do not sent in your calculators. Do not listen to positive review. They are a fraud.
I had recently gotten a calculator in the mail. In the package, there was a flyer of the cash4calcs company. I didn't bother to look at reviews and sent in my 'really good' condition of the TI-Inspire 84 Plus. It was said to be at worth 43.00. I have been waiting 2 weeks for the payment in my Paypal, and still have not received anything. I've called many times. Can't be trusted... SCAM.
I reporting them and they will scam you. Please dont send anything or buy from THEM. Warning you will not recieve any thing from them..
The site is misleading as it says you will get payment within 24 hours, I think the main issue is the shipping method they use as it is hard to track. I did get the advertised price, but the whole process took almost 4 weeks. You will get a check mailed after the calculator is received by them, no communciation from the company and they are hard to reach.
I've read a few negative reviews about this company so I wanted to provide my 2 cents. I submitted my product information, printed the pre-paid postage slip and mailed the items. I will admit, I got a little nervous after not hearing back within a week. So I sent an email and left a message. They responded the next day. They apologized (there were some issues with the post office and due to the most recent hurricane shipment was delayed), processed the order and deposited the $$ to my Paypal the next day. Just be PATIENT. They will take care of you.
About Cash4Calcs: Beware! You will not receive what you expected to receive. I sent 5 calculators in excellent condition and received a quote of $185.00. However, I was sent a check for $86! I called the customer service center and received a lot of blah-blah-blah about the condition of my calculators. I left a phone message for the manager of the company who also didn't make any effort or care enough to contact me. I failed to take photos of my calculators and advise you to take photos of your calculators ON BOTH SIDES (write down the identifying numbers of each calculator) if you decide to deal with this company. They are clearly not honest and don't care about their suppliers. I will personally never deal with them again!.
