Pricing

No fees. None.

An instant offer costs you nothing. Not a listing fee, not a commission, not a shipping label. The number we offer is the number that reaches your account.

Instant offers

$0 in fees

When Encore buys your Mac outright there is nothing to deduct. We pay for the shipping label, we carry the cost of inspecting and reselling it, and we take the risk that it sits on a shelf. Your offer is your payout.

No seller fee

Nothing comes off the top — no commission, no flat fee.

No payment processing

Venmo, Cash App, bank transfer or a check. We absorb the cost.

Free shipping

A prepaid label lands in your inbox the moment you accept.

No returns risk

Once we've inspected and paid, it's ours. Nobody comes back three weeks later.

So what's the catch?

An instant offer is usually a little less than you'd clear from a patient private sale. That gap is the whole business — we're buying the waiting, the listing, the messages, the no-shows and the risk that it doesn't sell, and taking all of it off your hands.

Frequently asked questions

What does an instant offer cost me?

Nothing. No commission, no listing fee, no payment-processing cut, and we pay for the shipping label. The amount you're offered is the amount that reaches your account.

Am I guaranteed to get the amount you offered?

Yes, as long as the Mac matches what you told us. We aren't nit-picky about condition and we rarely revise an offer. If we ever do, you'll see exactly what we found — photos included — and it's your call whether to take the new number or have your Mac shipped back, free.

What if something's wrong with it that I didn't mention?

Tell us in the notes box before you ship and we'll factor it in up front. It cuts both ways: if a Mac turns out to be in better shape than described, we pay more than the offer. That happens more often than people expect.

You buy broken Macs?

Gladly. Cracked screens, liquid damage, machines that won't boot — we repair and resell them, so a broken Mac is worth real money to us. Describe the fault as best you can; you don't need to diagnose it.

How do I get paid?

Pick Venmo, Cash App, a bank transfer or a paper check when you accept. We send payment once your Mac is inspected — usually the same day it arrives.^*

What happens to my data?

Every drive is erased to NIST 800-88 standards as soon as your Mac is received. You're welcome to wipe it yourself first. Do sign out of iCloud and turn off Find My before shipping — we can't buy a Mac that's still activation locked.

Can I change my mind?

Any time before you ship — just don't send it, and reply to your confirmation email so we can close it out. After it arrives, if we've revised the offer and you decline, we ship it back at our cost.
