Buy and Sell Pre-Owned Devices Using BuyBack Widget

RepairDesk users can now allow their customers to get instant quote on used, working and fully damaged phones or displays with pre-set buy prices through BuyBack Widget.  We have made it possible for our users to run a BuyBack Program following a few simple steps.

A lead is generated under Trade-In section and an email/SMS notification is sent to customer with further instructions. When the lead is marked as "purchased", device is added to inventory for refurbishment.

Details of configurations and settings on this page is given below

Walk-In Charges: These charges will be added to the device price. So if a customer comes to your store to sell his device, you will have to pay these charges to him in addition to the device price. Lets suppose the price of device is $400 and walk-in charges are set to $100. So if a customer walks-in, you will have to pay him $500 for the device.

Bring Into Store Text On Offer Page: This text will be displayed on widget to direct the user to bring his device physically to store.
