“Great experience”

Great experience. Sold my iphone 5 with water damage. Got a reasonable price, shipping was free, and got paid within the time frame they said. Awesome! Definitely recommend for unused/broken electronics.

“My wife and I are convinced the are a bait and switch company”

Sent some phony photos of our perfect, barely used I-phone 6 that we traded in for upgrade with AT&T. They offered not enough at AT&T so we looked at online sites. This one came back at $400 or so and when we sent in the phone, we were told it was "heavily damaged". Total nonsense, We had the phone for 3 weeks before the new phone came out. There as not a mark. Then we get these laughable photos back from them showing "a phone" with dents on the frame. Outrageous bait and with to lower the price. Avoid these scammers.

While we are very grateful for the overwhelmingly positive reviews we usually receive, a bad review is inevitable every once in awhile. When Mr. B created the order for his device, he created the order for a 128GB iPhone 6 in Like New condition. When our shipping and inspection department received his device, we found it to be a 16GB iPhone 6 with Heavy Wear. We judge wear condition based on the definitions found on our website when creating an order.
According to our definitions, if a device has any dings in the frame, it is considered to have heavy wear. Here is Mr. B’s device, along with the serial number of the phone in the condition we received the phone in:

We’re confident that if any customer had bought this device new from Apple, they would be upset if this was the device they received, and they would agree that this is not in Like New condition.

In the picture of the iPhone settings page, you can see that this device is a 16GB device instead of a 128GB device. (http://imgur.com/rMeBfHK)

In the last picture, you can see that this device was purchased 8 months ago, instead of three weeks, as claimed by Mr. B. (http://imgur.com/1hTSQwo)

We know that you, as a smart consumer, read these reviews and take them to heart. Hopefully we have provided enough facts regarding this review that you can make your own decision as to whether or not it is truthful.

Thanks for your time,

-Blazing Electronics

I found about blazing electronics form an article i read online
http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/how-to-sell-an-iphone-without-getting-ripped-off/
I sold my AT&T iphone 5 in Good condition. I got paid within 2 days after the package was delivered. They keep you posted during different steps of the process. I really felt i got the service i deserved and was painless. I recommend everyone to try them out.

Tip for consumers:
just follow the instructions and you should be good to go

When you enter blazing you are always greeted with a smile and excellent customer service! I have had my phones serviced there several times. Each time the work has been done right and a 30 day warranty given just in case. I have also purchased a few devices over the years and never had a problem.

I have used Blazing Electronics in the past and was very satisfied with the service. However, recently I sent my kids old phones into them and it took 4 days for them to even acknowledge that they received the phones and another three days to inspect them. Two days after that I finally received my money which was much lower than the initial quote.

UPDATE: Tried them again and they were super fast with payment this go round. Maybe last time was a one-off, so I would say they have redeemed themselves!

Sold my samsung galaxy S4. Got paid through Paypal within 2 days of them getting the phone. Price was more than fair compare to other website buying back cell phones. Didn't know much about the company but everything went good. I will do business with them again and would recomment to friends.

I've used Blazing Electronics to sell my old iPhones when the newest one is available for the last 5 years now. They have always given me the Best price and their customer service can't be matched. They will email you if there is an issue with the condition of your phone upon inspection and counter offer a price that they can offer. It's always been fair. I get my checks within a week.

Thank You!

Shawn

I sold my Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII. The offered a good price (a lot higher than competition). I got paid extremely fast (next day after the delivery of my phone). I have never heard of them but very happy with the service.

I sold my 11 Pro Max in October and was given the full asking price. My only concern was the processing fee of $20.02 for paying me through PayPal. This wasn't something I was aware of prior to selecting that payment option.

My daughter decided to get a new phone so I used Blazing Electronics to sell her old device, an apple iphone 6 64gb (Verizon). The process is fast, I picked moderate in the condition as the phone had a few scratches... Shipping label is free. I got paid on my Paypal account 2 days after they received the phone. Really fast service and I would recommend my friends to use their service.
THANKS blazing Electronics!

I came in as a walk in appointment and the nice man working told me he could fix my phone screen within the hour and at a very reasonable price! Other places I've gone before have told me they wouldn't have my phone done until the next day - I will never go anywhere else again!

I sold them an S4 Galaxy on 11/12/13 & and the claimed that they sent me a check (which never reached me). When I informed them of this they told me I would have to wait for the check to expire before they would issue a new one.

Hi Eric,
You are right, the check got lost in the mail. We made a paypal payment since you had problem getting your mail. There was never a conversation regarding waiting for the check to expire. Our Customer service probably asked you to wait an extra couple days to see if you would receive the check.
Thanks for your feedback.

This is the second year I sell my phone to blazing electronics. Last year my iphone X and this year my iphone XS max.
I compared the prices and there were better than other sites. Shipped my phone Monday using the prepaid label I received and got paid Thursday!
Fast payment, easy process and trusted company.
Thanks!

My iPhone 7 was in new condition, but my usual reseller was not offering a fair price. After finding Blazing Electronics online and sending them the specs on my phone, they sent me their offer, which was the highest on the Internet. I sent them my iPhone and expected the offer to be downgraded, but yesterday I received a check for the exact amount of the original offer. That is a FIRST for me! Needless to say, I will be selling Blazing Electronics all my devices in future! Thanks, Blazing Electronics, for being an honest and reputable firm!

I used blazing electronics to sell 2 used phones and an iPad 2. I sold an old Verizon Droid 2 that was in my drawer for more than a year, an Iphone 4 16GB and my iPad 2 32 gb. They sent me a shipping label 20 min after I got the offer, I packed my stuff and shipped it same day. You dont pay anything for shipping. They got the package 3 days later and paid me next day on my Paypal. I actually got more than expected because my Iphone was like new rather than slightly used as I tought. I checked multiple websites and found the best price at blazing electronics. It seems like a new company and I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth everything went.

I'm very pleased with your customer service and prompt responses to my inquiries, as well as the fair and fast payment.
I researched other sites to sell my iPhone7, but Blazing Electronics came out above all others, including my service provider.
I would not hesitate to do business with you again and would certainly recommend your services! THANK YOU

This is a great business to get your phone fixed! They did it in a timely manner and they were very professional. I wasn't worried about if my phone was going to be fixed or not I knew they would be great.
