Recycle My Machine

It’s NEVER open!
I’ve been trying to drop my 3 old laptops off her for 9 months! I’ve dragged them down there 4 times over this period at different times of the day and it’s NEVER open! On the shop window it has 4 different conflicting opening hours. I waiting from 3−4pm today, as one said it would be back at 3pm and the other 3.30pm. I give up! I also try to call their phone number and it says they have been closed down for renovations (It has said this all of last year). It has looked the same the whole of the last year also, yet I see people have posted reviews. How on earth do you sell stuff here!!! I may just donate the electronics to somewhere as the amount of man hours I have spent trying to get a quote isn’t worth the price no doubt!

You’re better off just posting on Craigslist for older or relatively inexpensive ($ 100 or less) electronics. I had to wait more than two hours, but the manager apologized.

This is the FIRST PLACE you should go to for selling electronics. I have sold many items over the years to many different vendors, but now I use these guys EXCLUSIVELY. Why? Sincerity. I admit I have had good experiences selling items, I have received great prices and I have been disappointed by not having my item ready upon my return… still these guys deserve FIVE STARS! Why? Because they will do whatever they can to make it right. They are humble, honest and working hard to deliver a high-​quality needed service. Forget the convenience of a Gazelle (RecycleMyMachines will pay you more anyway) Support your local small business and they will more than make up for the hassle of having to visit them with their kind, helpful and always smiling attitudes. Oh yeah, and their TOP PRICE PAID CASH on the same day as your visit. Pretty Cool Stuff

extremely friendly staff, and I walked out with exactly the sale price I was hoping for. highly, highly recommend this place.

brought my old computer in the week they re-​opened after their summer hiatus. i called ahead to make sure that it was as easy as their website says and was assured that yes it’s that easy. except, when i came in, i was told the wait was three hours, and the guy telling me this stopped himself from saying «four hours» as though four hours is somehow the deal breaker that three hours is not.
i left. and no i didn’t leave my computer there because that felt like not a thing people do. i was a little pissy, but a quick phone call from andrew remedied the situation. he promised the next time i wanted to come in, they’d set aside time so i wouldn’t have to wait the apparently potential four hours. this is exactly what happened and i was given a fair price for my old computer.
i didn’t feel cheated or hustled, and despite the problem, it ended up being a good experience.

They gave me top value for my laptop and were super nice and accommodating. I left very happy. Plus they took the time to get all my photos off of my computer and on to a disc and then wiped my computer out. So grateful. I just wish they were open in the morning.

That online same day quote option is amazing!!! Really made it quick and easy to figure out what to do with my old electronics… and the fact that this company is West LA local is fantastic as well:)

Wish I could give it a 6 star!
Awesome place! Been there twice and sold my very old items for good prices that I wasn’t even expecting. The dudes working there are super cool too, good service.

I brought 3 old laptops not knowing what to expect. The employees here are incredibly helpful and very nice guys.
They explained the entire process step by step so we knew what was going on. Walked away with some cash for what I thought was junk just taking up room in my closet.
Thanks guys!

Very kind & helpful employees. I came down to their shop and within an hour had a fair estimate on my electronics. Head to this place over any pawn shop you may be considering.

Came in on a hot day to sell a laptop and xbox 360 they told me itll take 15 – 20 minutes per item i waited 2 – 3 hours. I sold my xbox the staff was cool.

This place is awesome! Experienced great service and am very happy with what I walked away with. Andrew was extremely helpful, and helped me get all of my old photos onto an external hard drive. Great customer service went above and beyond. I recommend going here

Great service. These guys are friendly, helpful, and your get best bank for your items.

Following a reply message from Andrew to my last review, I was able to reschedule my appointment. Andrew was very patient (even though we missed our first rescheduled appointment) — even sending me a text message to confirm. When we came to the store today to sell my laptop and some other items Dylan was very helpful. I got a bit more money than I would have selling my laptop and a small TV on eBay, and without the hassle of having to create listings or pay seller fees. I’m glad my first impression was wrong. I would definitely recommend this place — just be prepared to wait for a bit for your items to be priced.

Staff are really nice. Sold my old MacBook Air for $ 350 which is good, which saved me some time and the price was slightly better than trade in online or with Apple. We didn’t sell my customized PC because the price offered was lower than I thought. But anyway maybe because it’s harder to sell a pre-​owned customized machine than sell a preowned brand name machine.

I don’t think there’s another place that does this. They take every and all of the modern electronics we tend to accumulate and not quite throw away. Plus they pay cash for some of it — they’ll find and pay for more of whatever value is left in your old crap than you’ll get anywhere else. If it’s worth literally nothing, they’ll dispose of/​recycle it for you. And this includes just about everything.
I had 4 boxes worth of stuff, including everything from an old malfunctioning Macbook Pro ($ 150) to an outdated home theater system ($ 4) to an old synthesizer module ($ 95) to a CD alarm clock & landline phone ($ 0) and some other landfill. All in all I got around $ 250 for what was functionally trash, and the peace of mind from knowing it all gets disposed of the right way.
Plus the guys there are really friendly and cool. Highly recommend

Get in. Get out!
The office is a cluttered hole in a wall, but if you want a fair deal on your laptop/​computer/​device, this is where you have to go.
Process is simple: Drop off your gear and fill out a form. Take a 15 – 30 minute coffee break, and after that, get your cash. Seriously, DO NOT mail your old computers to a fly by night recycling site. THIS is where you need to go!

awesome!!!
Great service, amazing cash back and chill guys. Very helpful.
Had service done in about an hour because it was a little busy. I just went to Starbucks in the mean time. Bought my old MacBook Pro computer for $ 435, iPad 2 for $ 65, and iPhone 4s cracked and bad esn for $ 40.
so happy

I had a hard time finding a place that would give me the total worth of my old equipment. I found this place on Unilocal and read some of the reviews. Some good, ONE bad, but overall I had to check it out. I filled out a form online describing my old equipment. A couple minutes later Andrew called asking me to bring them to the store.
I never met Andrew but the 3 guys working there were great and fast. I think I spend more time trying to find parking than them actually checking my equipment. Haha.
FYI: parking is rough (it’s the westside, so duh) its on Santa Monica blvd (no meters, woohoo) and you can’t enter thru the back alley. But the guys are willing to come out and help you with your stuff. *thumbs up*
Overall my experience was great. They explained a competitor to me and didn’t match their offer. They went above the competitors offer! More $$$$ on the spot. I definitely plan on doing business with them in the future.

Amazing company with amazing service!
I just sold my desktop iMac to them and got much more for it than even the Apple Store was offering. Really good guys who work there who are beyond helpful and very nice to boot! They are also very fast, which I liked considering I don’t live in the area and had to wait (since it obviously would be tough for me to come back on a different day to close out the deal). I would recommend them for anyone who wants to get top dollar for used electronics!
