How to Recycle Electronics and Get Cash Back

recycle How to Recycle Electronics and Get Cash Back

I love it when a good idea picks up steam and turns into a better one. This is very much the case with BuyMyBrokeniPod.com, where it completely evolved from an iPod recycling site, to BuyMyTronics.com a full fledged online recycling outfit that will buy your old laptop/pda/cellphone/camera/console and yes – they still buy iPods as well :)

The concept of selling electronics to them is still as simple as before:

Answer a few questions about the condition of your product to get a quotation for your device
Ship your product to them
Get your money in PayPal
Feel a warm fuzzy glow for helping keep electronic waste from our landfills

…which saves the hassle of waiting for an eBay auction or Craigslist listing to be resolved.

BuyMyTronics.com also purchases broken/non-functional devices as they’re able to make money by taking the working parts from some devices and using them to fix others.

Wow! It's good to know that there's such an organization which recycled electronic and get cash back. I actually don't know where to hide my old electronic gadgets. I once heard that it is very risky to keep your old gadgets inside your home. I forgot what is behind their explanation. But great thing is that I already know where to put mine.

I believe I still have a big Walkman or two sitting around somewhere...

I recently got a new iPhone, and sent my old one to iPhonesintocash.com I never realized you could sell other old electronics. I just figured that most people couldn't do anything with it, but I am learning that is not true!!

There quite a few ways you can actually save money and help the environment by recycling your own waste. I do it myself

MJD - Does it still work? :) If it does, you've certainly topped my ancient Apple 2 with 64k RAM!

Recycling some day will save the earth. I wish everything what's produced should be recycable.

@James Yeang: Yeah, you are right. At least we can reduce the electronic waste. If there is any station in malaysia is prefered.

@Syahid, Greentac: Yes it's international including Malaysia, and you will get less cash overall because of the shipping - but think of an environmentally friendly way to get rid of some of your old good with little or no resale value.

I think malaysian can use this website. But, how if the money we get is lesser than shipping fee? This is the main problem. If anyone in malaysia is having this kind of service. It would be great!!!

Can Malaysians use this site James?
