Pre-2020 Mac? Look up your spec with your serial number.
Where Do I Find this?Prices provided exclude any adjustments for condition or missing accessories.
Learn how our process works step by step. We will keep you updated, so you always know what’s going on with your device.
Step 1
Find Your Serial Number
From your MacBook’s serial number, we can detect your model and specification with great accuracy. The process is similar to entering your car’s registration number.
Step 2
Condition, Collection & Payment Forms
Did you pay hundreds to upgrade your MacBook with a dedicated graphics card? We will offer you more than any of our competitors! MacFinder is the only trade-in service which allows you to select your device’s exact specification.
Your device’s specifications aren’t the only things that make a big difference. Condition is also another factor which can affect value – as simple as A, B or C grade. We’re the only service to grade the device’s chassis, screen, battery, and more – this helps us ensure accuracy when pricing. A small hairline scratch won’t devalue your device like a cracked screen.
Step 3
We Collect From You
When we have confirmed your offer, we will quickly book your MacBook collection. When selecting your date, we require at least five days’ notice so that your collection pack can arrive in due time and you can pack your device for the courier.
When the collection day arrives, DPD will collect your package with a provided pre-paid label that they will place on the box. Your device will then be delivered to us the next day.
Step 4
Checking & Testing
When your MacBook arrives at MacFinder, it’ll be passed over to our inspection team. They will ensure the condition and specification match up and make sure the device is functional. This includes everything from headphone ports to Wi-Fi connectivity.
Step 5
Payment
Once the inspection has passed, payment will then be sent. We offer various payment options for you to choose from and our finance team will deposit the funds using your preferred payment method. If you are exchanging, your credit will be added to your MacFinder account, ready for use right away.

We stand out with a straightforward approach – no risks, no hidden costs, and complimentary collections and packaging for your Macbook. Selling with MacFinder is a breeze: just enter your serial number and system details in the online form below to receive your free quote, no sign-up necessary.
All three of our payment methods come without fees, so you always receive the total value of your final quotation.
Receive payment directly into your UK bank account on an instant transfer. We’ll collect your bank information through our secure portal and remove them once paid.
We’ve partnered with PayPal so you can receive payment into your PayPal account with zero delays. Simply enter your PayPal email address when you submit your offer.
When opting for Store Credit, we’ll give you a 10% bonus on top of your offer. Our team can partially refund a recent order or add the funds to your MacFinder account for the next time you shop.
As long as your MacBook is in good working order, we accept a range of items from the following categories:
Desktop computers (such as Mac Mini, iMac or Mac Pro)
Newer generations of Macbook Air & Macbook Pro
All you need to do to find out if your Apple Mac qualifies is fill out the information below and give us an idea of the condition of your system, battery (where required) and retina display, and you’ll get an instant quote.
No problem; we will send our specialist packaging before your collection date. All you need to do is box your item. Video instructions are provided. Then wait for your item to be collected.
We can take care of everything for you. All you need to do is box your MacBook and wait for it to be collected. Once you have sent the necessary information to sell your MacBook, we’ll organise the collection and send you our specialist packaging.
Once you’ve valued your Apple device, if you’re not yet ready to go ahead and confirm your sale, you can save your quote to email.
In your confirmation email, you will receive a link which allows you to open up your valuation from any device. Quotes are valid for five days, after which you can return and get an updated valuation.
You will be paid once we’ve received your item and it’s been inspected by one of our Apple-certified technicians. We aim to pay your quote within 48 hours of receiving the item; however, this can take up to 5 working days.
Payment will take longer if the specification is incorrect, the condition is wrong, we can’t pay you via your selected payment method due to erroneous details, or you’re a business and we require an invoice from you.
We may revise your quote if your model, specification, or condition doesn’t match what you’ve submitted. If you’re not happy with our assessment or your revised quote, we will send your item back to you free of charge on a next-day service.
Unless you requested a data transfer and are upgrading with us, your device is professionally wiped on arrival. If you’d prefer to, you can reset your device but it is not required.
When you decide to sell your old MacBook, it’s understandable that you want to know that your personal data will be protected. Our facility is certified data secure, GDPR compliant, and ISO accredited. All items we receive are thoroughly wiped of personal data (Apple ID etc.) once our testing process has been completed. If you are buying a replacement Mac from us, we can also arrange to transfer your data to your new machine.
It is crucial that you sign out of your Apple ID and disable the find my service. We provide a guide on how to do this on the quote confirmation page and email. If you do not remove the iCloud activation locks, your trade-in will be delayed.
