We have tried to simplify the process as much as possible, making selling as easy as 1..2..3. The selling process starts out by requiring you to fill in a form that captures the item and condition that you would like to sell, before you will get an instant offer.
Should you accept the offer, you will ship (or deliver) the item to our offices accompanied by documentation we require under the Second Hands Goods Act 6 of 2009 . Upon receiving your item, we will assess it. If everything is as described we will request some supporting documentation (if not already provided).
Once the documention is in order your payment will be processed instantaniously.
Watch our cool summary video on our home page for more.
Our process for selling used goods is as straightforward as ABC. We've streamlined it to three simple steps, starting with you completing a form that captures the details and condition of the item you wish to sell. Following this, you'll typically receive an offer within 24 hours.
If you accept our offer, you'll need to courier or deliver the item to our offices, accompanied by the necessary documentation as mandated by the Second-Hand Goods Act 6 of 2009. We do also assist with arranging courier if you are not able to deliver the items yourself. Upon receipt of your item, we'll conduct an assessment. If all is in order and matches the provided description, we might ask for some supporting documentation (if it wasn't previously provided).
We'll process your payment without delay once all the paperwork is squared away. To get a more comprehensive understanding, watch our succinct summary video on our selling page.
Our primary goal is to enhance safety in the second-hand goods marketplace. To achieve this, and to comply with the Second-Hand Goods Act (No. 6 of 2009) and other relevant regulations, we are obliged to gather the same information that traditional brick-and-mortar stores, like Cash Crusaders or Cash Converters, require.
By law, we need the following information to complete a transaction:
-
Proof of residence (dated within the last three months)
-
Verified copy of ID (you only need to submit this once)
-
Confirmation of banking details
Rest assured, this information will only be requested from clients who are selling items to us, and only once the sale has been agreed upon and is nearing completion. All information will be securely encrypted and not shared with any third party for any reason whatsoever.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this, please don't hesitate to contact us - I have a question.

Upon the completion of the sales process and the acceptance of your item(s), we will process the payment to your bank account. All payments are made via an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), ensuring a seamless, secure, and speedy transaction directly into your bank account.
Each payment will be accompanied by a payment referencing Sell Your PC and a short description if applicable. This way, you can easily track and verify the transaction.

Our payment process is swift and efficient. If your account is with FNB, just like us, you should see the payment clear the same day - in many cases, almost immediately!
For those with accounts in other banks like Standard Bank, Nedbank, Investec, Discovery, and Absa, the payment clearance can take up to one working day. For Capitec account holders, payments usually clear within two working days.
Please note, these timelines depend on interbank transfer speeds, which are beyond our control. Rest assured, you will receive an emailed payment notification the moment we initiate the transfer. We're committed to ensuring you get your payment as soon as possible! 🚀🏦
Absolutely, assuming the item(s) you're selling matches the condition you initially stated and successfully passes our meticulous testing process, you'll receive the full payment.
However, if we encounter any discrepancies or detect any defects not previously mentioned, we won't leave you in the dark. We will openly communicate these findings and work together to find a mutually agreeable solution. Our ultimate aim is to ensure a positive, fair experience for you so you'll be confident in recommending us to your friends! 😉🤝💻

If your item is listed on our website, there are several tests mentioned that you can carry out to ascertain whether it meets our criteria. Generally speaking, if the item is less than three years old and is in decent physical and functional condition, it should be suitable for resale. However, if you're still in doubt, or have any specific questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're always here to help! 👍📱💻🔍
Each item that arrives at our location is given a detailed visual inspection before we conduct the specific tests mentioned in our FAQ. We aim for full transparency, so we've explained our testing procedures in detail. We welcome you to perform your own tests at home and share the results with us before you ship or deliver your item. In the unlikely scenario that your item doesn't match its described condition, we'll have a conversation with you to discuss our findings, providing any supporting evidence. At this point, we can either arrange to return the item to you or propose a revised offer.
Remember, you, as the seller, always have the final say. Our goal is to ensure a smooth and satisfactory selling process for all our clients. 🤝💼🔍💻
Our ultimate goal is to maintain transparency and customer satisfaction throughout the entire selling process. To this end, we empower our clients to conduct the same tests at home that we would in-house using the same software (refer to our testing section for more details). In fact, we encourage you to share your testing results, including any images, as part of your submission process. Once we receive your item, we'll perform identical tests and if there's a discrepancy between your data and ours (within reason), we'll initiate a dialogue with you to find a mutually acceptable solution. 🔄🔬
However, if you don't wish to accept a reduced offer for your item, you have the option to arrange a courier to retrieve it, or to collect it yourself. We want to emphasise that you are at the driver's seat of the process and all final decisions rest with you. Our aspiration is to make sure every interaction with Sell Your PC leaves our valued clients with a smile. 😊🙌💻

A range of different tests are performed on ASIC miners, depending on the manufacturer. In general, ASIC miners are stress-tested where they are running for at least 4 hours to assess aspects such as their control board and hash board temperatures, fan speeds, and to check for temperature issues.
We also download the kernel log of each miner to check for diagnostic issues related to the miner. Naturally, we will also take a look at the general maintenance and upkeep which was done on the miner, its chips, and heatsinks.
