Yes, Gizmogo will still pay you for a device that doesn’t work, although quotes are usually lower for broken devices.

Look in the “About” section of your device’s settings - you may have to look up how to find this on your device’s operating system. Alternatively, you can look in the user manual, the back of the device, or the manufacturer’s website.

We pay the most for all devices, regardless of age or damage! However, there are a few circumstances where we cannot offer anything for it. For example, there is no huge demand for, say, your old Motorola StarTAC that's been in a drawer for 20 years. Therefore, we will not be able to give you as much for it as your iPhone XR, for example. But there are still some parts that we can recycle. We will gladly accept any of your old devices to keep our pledge to lessen e-waste.
IMEI stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity. It’s a 15-digit serial number unique to your device. It’s what identifies your handset and can be used by networks to mark it as lost or stolen or bar it from connecting to networks. You can find out yours by typing *#06# into the keypad or looking it up in your device’s settings.
Yes, of course. Please contact customer service for more information about all other electronic gadgets.
Shipping
Gizmogo sends a confirmation email as soon as we receive your device. If you’re concerned about your device reaching us safely, you can log in to your shipping carrier to track your order.
You need to send the device(s) along with its battery still enclosed. As for how to package it, here are some recommendations you should follow:
Perform a factory reset on the device and fully charge the battery.
Secure the device against the movement in the package. We recommend using stiff cardboard or packaging foam.
Make sure it does not include SIM cards, SD cards, or anything else that may contain your data. If you forget to remove the card from these devices, don't worry. They cannot be returned but will automatically be destroyed during the technician evaluation.
This will depend on the quote you received.
The original packaging is the best option for sending your tech as it’s ready-made for your device!
If you no longer have the packaging, not to worry! You can wrap it in bubble wrap or newspaper to keep it secure in transit!
Don’t forget to back up your data and remove all personal information and passwords.
If you send your order to us using the label that we provide, your items will be insured. If you’re concerned that your order hasn’t arrived with us, please get in touch with our customer service team, and we’ll investigate for you!
General
No, we cannot accept a stolen device. When we receive a device that has been reported as lost or stolen, we won’t pay for it and turn it over to the police immediately. If this is a mistake and the device is yours, please contact your mobile carrier and make sure everything is okay before selling it.
There is no limit to the number of devices you can sell. We would love to take them all!

First, by seeing if the equipment turns on! Next, we check if everything is intact with all of its original parts, and nothing is broken or missing. We also check for any signs of water damage. After that, the device is inspected to ensure that the operating system, drivers, and peripherals function properly (i.e., camera, WIFI, microphone, speaker, etc.).
