Generally, when recycling mobile phones, users will first check the recycling price online to see how much their second-hand mobile phone is worth. So, are the prices found on second-hand trading platforms real? Why are there still many users complaining that the query price is very different from the actual recycling price? Is there anything tricky about this? Let’s take a look with you!
At present, many second-hand trading platforms have the "free valuation" function. Users can check the second-hand trading price of their mobile phones based on the brand model, appearance maintenance, functions, hardware and purchasing channels of their mobile phones. However, recently, many users have reported that the prices found online are very different from the actual recycling price.
Ms. Huang from Shenzhen once recycled an iPhone 13 on an online recycling platform. Because it was her first time recycling her phone, she was very serious when filling in the situation. The contents she filled in include the appearance of the screen, the boot lock, the camera, etc. The final recycling price was 3,500 yuan, but after mobile phone delivery to the second-hand recycling platform for quality inspection, it was told that the recycling price could only be given 1,900 yuan. The reason given by the platform is that Ms. Huang’s mobile phone screen has severe cracks, and the speaker and Bluetooth functions are damaged, so she can only give so much. For this reason, Ms. Huang was very upset and believed that the price inquired was too far from the actual recycling price, and the platform's recycling quotation was not true. In the end, she gave up recycling on this platform.
So, aren’t the prices obtained from online valuation real?
In fact, like Ms. Huang, it may be that during the mobile phone evaluation process, the mobile phone is filled in inaccurately due to lack of understanding of the professional knowledge of the mobile phone, which leads to inconsistent with the actual recycling price. Of course, it is also possible that the second-hand trading platform deliberately raises the price, tricking users into expressing their mobile phones to the platform and then lowering the price.
In order to increase transaction volume, they do not hesitate to tempt users to come and sell their mobile phones under the guise of "high price recycling". When queries for price, they will give users a price that is far higher than the market price. After the user handed over the phone to them for testing, he disassembled the phone and lowered the recycling price for various reasons. Therefore, some users believe that the valuation of second-hand platforms is inaccurate.
