We provide you an estimated value of your headphones based on your responses to our online assessment questions. Once Moorup receives your headphones, they will assess its functional and cosmetic condition to ensure consistency with your online assessment responses to determine the final value. The final value may be negatively affected by any of the following factors:
- Headphones Selection: It is important to make the correct headphones selection when initially identifying your headphones i.e. you have chosen the correct make, model and internal memory. This is important as this initially determines the trade-in value of your headphones.
- Working Condition: Headphones must power on, and include all components (e.g. ear cushions, charging case, cables, etc.).
- They must be fully functional, including all key features such as drivers, microphones, buttons, charging port, and Bluetooth pairing. Any damage or missing parts may reduce the estimated value. Devices that do not function as intended will be classified as having a functional fault.
- Cosmetic Condition: If the headphones or any included accessories have cracks, dents, deep scratches, missing parts, or visible wear that affects the use or appearance, they will be considered as Damaged. For wireless earbuds, the charging case and earbuds must be free from corrosion or damage that prevents charging.
- Locks: Any lock applied that prevents us from accessing your headphones e.g. Apple AirPods or Beats linked to your Apple account. Please ensure your headphones are removed from your Apple account before sending them to us.
- Missing accessories: The absence of key accessories will reduce or eliminate the trade-in value.
