Looking for away to save money on electronics without sacrificing quality? There are several ways to save big on your next iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, iPad or even MacBook. These gently used devices are not only affordable, but they also help the environment by reducing electronic waste. In this article, we’ll dive into what makes us, Gazelle, stand out from the rest and why buying refurbished is the way to go.
What are Gazelle Refurbished Devices?
Gazelle refurbished devices are certified pre-owned cell phones and other electronics that come at big savings compared to buying new. We assure quality by subjecting each device in our inventory to a thorough refurbishment process before selling it on our website – a 30-point inspection to be exact.
These devices are not only affordable but also environmentally conscious, as they reduce the amount of electronic waste produced when people throw away old devices. Buying brand new may come with that incredible temporary seratonin boost, but you’re actually contributing to the larger problem of shorter device lifespan and increase production. Big yikes.
Certified Pre-Owned Electronics
What exactly does it mean when a device is “certified pre-owned“? Essentially, it means that the device has been thoroughly inspected, refurbished, and tested to ensure that it meets the same standards as a brand new product. We have our own Gazelle Certified Pre-Owned gurantee that gives you a peace of mind when ugrading to your next device.
So why choose a certified pre-owned device over a brand new one? For starters, you can save money while still getting a high-quality product that functions just as well as if you bought it brand-new. Additionally, buying used devices helps reduce e-waste and supports sustainable practices. At Gazelle specifically, our inventory of certified pre-owned devices comes with an extensive certification process so that you know you’re getting reliable electronics at an affordable price.
How does we certify their devices? They take several steps including cosmetic inspection (to ensure there are no defects), functionality testing (to make sure everything works like new), repair or replacement of any defective parts (so the device is fully functional) before finally repackaging the item in its original packaging along with essential accessories such as chargers and cables.
Thorough Refurbishment Process
We take great pride in our thorough refurbishment process, ensuring that every device is restored to its original condition. Our team of experienced technicians performs a detailed inspection and repair process that includes:

All refurbished devices are also certified, meaning they have passed our strict standards for quality assurance.
In addition, all Gazelle refurbished devices come with a 30-day return policy and a 1-year warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. This ensures that customers are satisfied with their purchase and can trust the product will last for years to come.
