Making a Liability Into an Asset

One reason that we keep all of these phones on hand is related to the growing concept of e-waste.

Basically speaking, once someone has used a smartphone until it no longer fits their needs, that phone isn’t useful to them anymore. But it might be useful to someone else. In fact, if refurbished back to factory conditions, it probably will be!

So having a secondary market for these mobile phones makes enormous sense. Otherwise, there’s just a glut of them lying around dormant, waiting to be processed, whether that means recycled, or unfortunately dumped into a landfill or trash space.

Governments and businesses are doing their best to prevent e-waste from being dumped in landfills, and being able to reuse smartphones and mobile devices is a main part of this effort. There are rare earth metals in many of these devices that need to be worked with carefully, and so refurbishing a device does a number of things to help the environment and the society.

Making Things Easier

Here’s another big benefit for people who are carrying pre-owned smartphones and mobile devices.

The whole process is easier and less expensive. When you go to shop for a replacement phone, you have more options at lower prices. Then you also tend to feel better about carrying your phone around wherever you go, and you worry about it less. If you pay upfront versus financing on an expensive new phone, you have less to worry about if you lose the phone, or damage its screen or some other part of the device.

All of this makes RefurbKings an excellent place to go for your next pre-owned smartphone. Get 90 days same as cash financing through our Mariner program, and ask us about ‘no credit check’ options available. We also offer free layaway on devices, so if you see one that you like, but need to earn up for it, we’ve got you covered.
