FAQ

Most customers sell to us using our online Quote Wizard, available 24/7.

If you need additional assistance, you can reach our Purchasing team by phone at 1-800-DIAL-KEH or by email at [email protected]. Our knowledgeable staff will gladly guide you through the quote creation process.

For the most personalized selling experience, you can schedule a video chat with one of our expert Buyers. They can visually inspect your gear to help identify it and assess its condition.

Once you've selected an item in the Quote Wizard, you'll be prompted to choose a condition grade for your gear. KEH uses a cosmetic grading system with the following categories: Like New Minus (LN-), Excellent Plus (EX+), Excellent (EX), and Bargain (BGN). Please note that all items must be fully functional; the grading system applies to cosmetic condition only.

Quoted values remain valid for 14 days from the date the quote is submitted. All quotes are based on the condition grade and description you provide. The final offer price will be determined after our technicians receive and inspect your equipment. The estimated quote does not include any repair costs that may be necessary to restore your gear to working condition. If repairs are required, their cost will be deducted from the final offer. In some cases, we may be unable to extend an offer, particularly for broken or outdated items. When this happens, we're happy to assist you in responsibly recycling your gear.

We value you trading and re-circulating your gear. So when you trade in your gear with KEH toward the purchase of "new-to-you" gear, you'll receive a trade voucher for the full appraised value of your gear plus a significant bonus. Simply select the option to receive a KEH trade voucher.

Your trade voucher can then be used to purchase the “new-to-you” gear you want. And you can use the trade voucher for purchases immediately or over the next 90 days, and on purchases made on our website, over the phone, or at our retail store.

How Trade Vouchers Work:

• Vouchers are one-time use, but if you use the voucher but do not use the full amount in a single transaction, a new voucher will automatically be emailed to you for the remaining balance. The 90-day redemption period will restart with each newly issued voucher.
• You have 90 days from issuance to use your trade voucher. After that, the remaining balance will need to be converted to a cash payment.

Important Notes on Redemption:

• When redeeming a trade voucher, the appraised value of your gear is applied first. The bonus amount can only be used once the full appraised value has been applied.
• To receive the full value of your trade bonus, you must use the entire voucher toward a KEH purchase.
• You are free exchange the voucher for cash at any time, and you will receive the remaining balance of your gear’s appraised value. Any unused bonus amount will be forfeited.

Once we receive your item(s), please allow 3 to 5 business days (Monday through Friday) for us to process and evaluate them. During peak periods, processing times may be slightly longer. You’ll receive email updates at key stages: when your gear arrives, when our inspection begins, and when your offer is ready to review.

After you accept your offer and choose your preferred payment method, you’ll receive a payment notification almost immediately. If you choose not to accept the offer, we’ll return your equipment to you free of charge as long as your return address is within the contiguous United States.

You can get an immediate update on the status of your quote anytime here:

Upon delivery at KEH, all international shipments are placed in a holding period for 14 days, pending any information on import taxes, customs duties, and fees that were potentially charged to our company.

To expedite this waiting period, we would appreciate it if you could send a copy of the custom duties and fees you have paid to the shipping carrier chosen for this shipment to [email protected].

If any fees were charged to KEH as the payor of this international shipment, the customs duties and fees will be deducted from your pending quote.
