Buy • Sell • Trade — East Village, NYC
iPhone 16 & 17, brand-new iPads, AirPods and AirPods Max, cameras from Nikon, Canon, Sony, Fujifilm, Leica & more, PlayStation 5, and Ray-Ban Meta glasses. Walk into 39 Avenue A — no appointment, same-day cash, real prices.
We buy and sell a very specific range of electronics in NYC. We keep it tight because we know these products inside and out — which means you get a real, fair price, not a guess. Here's exactly what qualifies.
We buy and sell iPhone 16 and iPhone 17 — all models and all colors. Walk in with any variant and we'll make you an offer on the spot.
Think of your iPhone like a used car. Same make and model, but condition matters a lot. Here's what we look at:
We buy and sell brand-new AirPods, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max only. If you have a sealed box or an open box that's never been used, bring it in. Used AirPods are not something we purchase — the reason is simple: earbuds are very personal, condition is hard to verify after use, and the resale market for used AirPods is tough.
Brand new means the AirPods have never been paired with a phone and are in original unused condition. The box should be intact. Sealed is ideal. Open box is okay if everything inside is untouched. We'll check the pairing status on the spot — AirPods tell us if they've ever been used before. If they have, we won't be able to make an offer.
AirPods Max hold their value better than regular AirPods because they're a premium over-ear headphone. All colorways are welcome — Midnight, Starlight, Blue, Purple, and Orange. They must be brand new. Bring the Smart Case if you have it. The original box adds value too. We see a lot of gift AirPods Max that were never opened — if that's you, you're in the right place.
We buy and sell cameras from Nikon, Canon, Sony, Fujifilm, Lumix, Leica, Pentax, and Ricoh — bodies, lenses, and complete kits. All must be in full working condition.
Cameras go through the most thorough check of anything we buy. We power it on, fire the shutter multiple times, test autofocus, take a test shot to check the sensor, inspect the LCD for dead pixels, and check all ports. This takes 10–15 minutes and happens right at the counter in front of you.
We buy and sell the PlayStation 5 console — disc edition and digital edition. The PS5 is one of the most actively traded consoles in the secondhand market right now, and we see them come through the store regularly. If you have one to sell or you're looking to buy one, come in.
The PS5 must be in full working condition. We test every console before making an offer. Here's what our inspection looks at:
Getting your PS5 ready takes about five minutes and makes the whole process faster:
We buy the PS5 console and DualSense controllers. We don't purchase individual games separately — the games market fluctuates too much for us to offer fair prices on individual titles. If you have a bundle with the console and several games, we'll factor in the extras when we look at the whole package. Extra DualSense controllers in good working condition are something we do buy alongside the console.
We buy and sell brand-new iPads only — the latest iPad, iPad Air, and iPad Pro models. Sealed or open-box unused. Walk in and we'll make you an offer on the spot.
We only purchase iPads that are brand new — sealed box or open box that has never been set up or used. Used iPads are not something we currently buy. The iPad resale market for used units is competitive and margins are tight enough that we can't offer fair prices on pre-owned iPads. A brand-new sealed iPad, on the other hand, is something we can price confidently and sell quickly.
Brand new means the iPad has never been powered on and set up with an Apple ID. Sealed box is ideal. Open box is fine if the iPad inside has never been activated — we'll verify this by powering it on. If the setup screen shows Apple's welcome screen with no account linked, it qualifies. If it shows someone's home screen or asks for a passcode, it doesn't.
We buy and sell Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses — all models, all colorways, new and used. Bring them in and we'll make you an offer on the spot.
Unlike AirPods, we buy Ray-Ban Meta in both new and used condition. Used pairs are welcome as long as the core features work. Here's what we check:
Quick answers broken down by category. Tap any question to expand.
iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, 16 Pro Max — and all iPhone 17 models as they release. All colors qualify. We do not buy iPhone 15 or older.
No. iCloud-locked iPhones have zero resale value — nobody can activate them. Before coming in: Settings → your name → Sign Out, then Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Erase All Content.
Hairline cracks that don't affect touch or display — yes, with a reduced offer. Shattered screens with dead zones or screen separation — no. Text us a photo first so you know before making the trip.
Color doesn't — we buy every colorway equally. Storage does: 256GB gets more than 128GB, 512GB more than 256GB. Battery health and screen condition matter most.
Not required. The phone itself drives 90% of the offer. Original box, cable, and charger add a small bonus but don't stay home without them.
No — brand new only. Sealed box or open box that has never been paired. AirPods show us their pairing history when we check, so there's no way to get around this.
Yes — this is the most common AirPods situation we see. Sealed gift AirPods are exactly what we buy. Bring them in, no questions asked. We just need your ID as required by law.
Yes, significantly. AirPods Max are premium over-ear headphones and hold value much better. All colorways welcome. Bring the Smart Case — it matters for the offer.
Yes. Latest-generation AirPods Pro and AirPods Max get the best offers. Older sealed pairs still qualify but command less. Bring what you have and we'll quote it straight.
Nikon, Canon, Sony, Fujifilm, Lumix, Leica, Pentax, and Ricoh — bodies, lenses, and kits. The camera must be in full working condition.
Yes. All mounts for our supported brands — Nikon Z/F, Canon RF/EF, Sony E/FE, Fujifilm XF/GF, Leica M/SL, Lumix L/MFT. Autofocus must work, glass must be clean, no fungus.
Shutter count is how many photos the camera has taken — like mileage on a car. Lower is better. We check it during inspection. Very high shutter counts reduce the offer; low counts can increase it.
Light dust that doesn't show in photos — yes, with a small reduction. Heavy contamination or sensor damage is a bigger problem. We take a test shot during inspection so you can see exactly what we see.
Yes, for brands we carry. A Nikon D800, Canon 5D Mark III, or Sony A7 II can still hold real value if they're in working condition. Text us the model and some photos and we'll tell you if it's worth the trip.
Yes — PS5 Slim disc and digital editions both qualify. Same inspection process as the original PS5. Bring all cables and the DualSense controller.
No. A hardware ban from PlayStation Network is permanent — the console can't access PSN, download games, or receive updates. We can't make an offer on a console-banned unit.
Individual games — no. Extra DualSense controllers in working condition — yes, alongside the console. A bundle with games and the console will factor in the extras.
Settings → System → System Software → Reset Options → Reset Your Console. This removes your account and wipes all data. Don't forget to bring all cables, the power brick, and your DualSense.
Used iPad margins are too tight to make fair offers. Brand-new sealed or unactivated iPads are something we can price confidently and move quickly — that's where we can actually pay you well.
Never powered on and set up with an Apple ID. Sealed box is ideal. Open box is fine if the iPad shows Apple's welcome screen — no prior account linked. We verify this during inspection.
Yes — iPad Pro commands the strongest offer, followed by iPad Air, then standard iPad. Higher storage and Cellular models also get more. A 1TB iPad Pro Cellular is at the top of the range.
Yes — bring them and we'll factor them into a bundle offer. Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard especially add meaningful value when new and unused.
Gen 1 (Ray-Ban Stories, 2021) — 5MP camera, basic audio, no Meta AI. Gen 2 (2023 onwards) — 12MP camera, open-ear speakers, Meta AI, livestreaming. Gen 2 gets a noticeably stronger offer. Not sure which you have? The Gen 2 camera lens is visibly larger.
Light frame scratches — yes with a reduction. Scratched lenses hurt more since buyers feel it immediately. Missing charging case is a significant hit. Cracked frames — text us a photo first.
Roughly. Wayfarer and Headliner tend to have the widest buyer base. Condition, generation, and whether the case is included matter more than frame style.
Open the Meta View app → tap your glasses → Device Settings → Unpair. Then hold the button on the right arm for 10 seconds for a factory reset. Bring the charging case and USB-C cable.
New York State law requires all secondhand dealers to record seller information. A government-issued photo ID — driver's license, state ID, or passport — is required for every transaction. It protects both sides.
We check recent completed eBay sales, trade-in competitors, and local demand — then factor in your item's specific condition from our inspection. We'll explain the number. If you think we're off, show us and we'll talk.
No problem — you never have to sell. The evaluation is free and no-obligation. Take your item and go. Come back another day and we'll make a fresh offer based on current market conditions.
eBay might get you more, but you wait days or weeks, deal with buyers, handle shipping, pay 10–15% in fees, and risk scams. With us: walk in, get a real offer, walk out with cash same day. No fees, no strangers.
iPhones: 5–10 min. Cameras: 15–20 min. PS5: 10–15 min. AirPods and iPads: 5 min or less. Everything happens at the counter in front of you — nothing behind closed doors.
Not officially, but if the resale value is under $50 the offer will be small. Text us photos first at 917-608-8939 and we'll tell you straight if it's worth the trip — we'd rather save you the ride.
