Buy & Sell

Buy and sell phones in Seattle

Cash or store credit for devices you don’t need — and tested pre-owned phones on the shelf at both LML shops.

Want cash for an old phone? Tell us you’re coming, then bring it in — we inspect it and make a real offer at the counter. Want to buy? Come see what’s in stock in Ballard or West Seattle. Same technicians who repair devices also buy, wipe, grade, and sell them.

Two paths

Sell us a device for cash or store credit — or buy a tested pre-owned phone off the shelf. Both happen in our Seattle shops.

Sell

Bring your phone, tablet, or laptop in. We inspect it and make a real cash or store-credit offer.

Start sell request

Buy

See certified pre-owned phones and tablets in Ballard or West Seattle. Stock changes — walk in or call.

Buy in store

What we buy and sell

If it powers on, is cracked, or is only good for parts, bring it in. We’ll tell you what it’s worth. Pre-owned stock is whatever we’ve just finished testing — call ahead if you’re after a specific model.

Phones

iPhone, Samsung, Google Pixel, and most Android phones — working, cracked, water-damaged, or for parts.

Tablets

iPad and Android tablets. We buy used units and keep a rotating pre-owned stock in both shops.

Laptops

MacBooks and many Windows laptops. Bring it in so we can check battery, board, and screen before we price it.

How it works

No mail-away program and no mystery online cart. You deal with the same shop that will still be here if something’s off.

1

Sell or buy in store

Sell us a phone, tablet, or laptop for cash or store credit — or buy a tested pre-owned device off the shelf at either shop.

2

Tell us you’re coming (sell)

Short form — device + contact. Not a final quote. It just lets us know what’s walking in.

3

Finish at the counter

We inspect, make an offer, wipe if needed, and pay or hand you a device the same visit.

Both Seattle shops

Walk in with ID. We can help sign out of iCloud or Google before we take a device. Pre-owned inventory is in the shops — not listed on a separate storefront.

Why this matters

Your old device becomes inventory — not landfill

  • We buy devices people are done with.
  • Same repair team tests, wipes, grades, and refurbishes.
  • Working units go back on our shelves for the next customer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Selling, buying, data wipes, and where to walk in.

What devices can I sell?
Most smartphones, tablets, and many laptops — Apple, Samsung, Google, and more. Broken, locked, or water-damaged devices can still have value. We tell you the real number after we inspect it in store.
Do you give online quotes?
No honest final price without seeing the device. Use the short sell form so we know you’re coming, then walk in. We inspect it and make a cash or store-credit offer at the counter.
Where do I finish the deal?
Either LML shop in Seattle: Ballard-area (700 NW 42nd St STE #333) or West Seattle (3400 Harbor Ave SW STE #108). Bring the device and a photo ID. We verify condition, help with account wipe if needed, and pay cash or apply store credit the same visit.
Is my data safe?
Sign out of iCloud / Google and wipe when you can before you arrive. If you need help, our techs walk you through it at the counter before we take the device.
Do you buy locked or iCloud-locked phones?
Activation-locked devices are worth less and sometimes nothing until the lock is off. Bring it in — we’ll check and tell you straight.
