Frequently Asked Questions
Selling Your Laptop
Do you buy gaming laptops, or modified/broken gaming laptops?
Yes, absolutely! We buy gaming laptops of all kinds and in all conditions—including new, used, modified, and broken gaming laptops. While brands like Alienware, ASUS ROG, MSI, and Razer are popular, we’ll buy any model. We understand that a broken gaming laptop may still have valuable components, and our pricing system is designed to provide a fair offer based on its actual condition and components. Our goal is to make it easy for you to sell gaming laptops for cash, no matter their state.
How is the value of my used laptop determined?
The value of your used laptop is determined by three main factors: The market demand for your specific model, the device’s specifications (CPU, RAM, storage, etc.), and the physical and functional condition of the laptop, as determined by the condition you select when getting a quote. Our system uses real-time market data to ensure our quotes are fair and competitive, reflecting the true value of your device.
What should I do before I sell my laptop?
Before you do anything else, the most critical step to take when preparing to sell your laptop is to back up all of your personal data. This includes your documents, photos, videos, and any other files you want to keep. Once your data is backed up, you’ll want to perform a factory reset on your device. This is the single most effective way to ensure all of your personal information, settings, and apps are completely erased before you sell your laptop. While our IT professionals perform a secure data wipe as the first step of our inspection process, doing it yourself provides a final layer of peace of mind. For a more in-depth look at our secure process, please see our Trust Pledge page.
Can I sell my broken or old laptop online with Canitcash?
Yes, absolutely! We buy laptops in all conditions, not just used or in perfect working order. We have a clear condition-based grading system—Flawless, Good, Fair, and Poor—that allows us to provide a quote even for devices that have heavy wear, cracks, or are non-functional. If your old laptop or broken laptop has value in its components, we’ll give you a fair quote. Our goal is to make sure every device finds a new purpose, whether it’s by being refurbished or responsibly recycled.
What kinds of laptops does Canitcash buy?
We buy a wide variety of laptops, including all major brands and models. We specialize in both gaming laptops and business workstations, but we also purchase everyday notebooks and older models. Our platform will walk you through a list of brands to get started, from Apple and Dell to Microsoft and Razer. No matter the type of laptop, if it’s on our site, we’ll make you a fair offer.
Do I need to include my laptop's charger and accessories?
Yes, we strongly recommend including your laptop’s original charger and any included accessories, as they are factored into the total value of your quote. We will still buy your device if the charger is missing or lost, but the offer may be slightly adjusted. We also recommend removing any wireless mouse dongles or other peripherals before shipping.
Can I sell multiple laptops or other devices in one order?
Yes, our system is designed to make selling multiple devices easy. While you can package multiple devices together in one box, you must create a separate order for each device you are selling to ensure you receive a unique, accurate quote for each item.
What if I change my mind after getting a quote?
We believe in a no-pressure, no-commitment sales process. If you receive a quote and decide you don’t want to proceed for any reason, you are under no obligation to do so. You can simply discard the free shipping label and keep your device.
Will I get more money for a high-end gaming laptop?
Yes, you will likely get more money for a high-end gaming laptop compared to standard notebooks. Gaming laptops often feature powerful processors, dedicated graphics cards (GPUs), and larger RAM capacities, which hold significant resale value due to their high demand. Our pricing system accounts for these premium specifications, ensuring you receive a competitive and fair offer for your high-performance gaming machine.
What if my laptop has been upgraded with more memory or a new hard drive?
Our quotes are based on the original specifications of your laptop’s model. To keep our system streamlined and incredibly easy for all users, we currently do not offer more money for upgraded components. While we appreciate the value of an upgraded laptop with new memory or a larger hard drive, our pricing is determined by the base model. This policy allows us to provide a fast, consistent, and hassle-free quote for everyone looking to sell an upgraded laptop, ensuring your selling process is always straightforward and simple.
What if I accidentally selected the wrong model or misjudged the condition of my device?
It happens! If our inspection reveals an incorrect model was sent or the condition differs from your selection, we’ll contact you instantly via our messaging system. We’ll provide clear photos of our findings and, if your device still has value, we’ll present you with a revised offer for the correctly identified item. You then have the straightforward choice to either accept this new offer or have your device returned to you completely free of charge, with no questions asked.
