Sell Your iPad (8th generation)

2020 · A2270, A2428, A2429, A2430

We pay up to £113, paid the same day.

The quote for your iPad (8th generation) is based on condition, functionality and completeness: a clean screen, intact edges, working controls and a battery that holds charge strengthen it, while cracks, heavy wear or weak battery life lower it. The figure we show after inspection is the figure paid, not an opening position, and is held for 14 days. Payment goes out the same day your photo ID and proof of address are confirmed.

Not sure whether a part is original? How to check a refurbished phone

Before you sell

We cannot buy a device that is still under contract or on finance, because until it is paid off you are not yet its legal owner. We also cannot buy a device that is part of an ongoing insurance claim, or that has been reported lost or stolen.

We record the name and address of everyone we buy from, and check them against photo ID and proof of address. HMRC requires it: buying from a private seller, we have to raise the purchase invoice ourselves and it must carry your details. Bring the documents into the shop and show us, or send a photo if the device is reaching us another way.

Paid the same day

Cash or bank transfer as soon as your device is checked, not store credit.

Price held 14 days

Once we send your offer it will not drop, so you have time to decide.

We repair, so faulty still pays

Cracked screen or worn battery is a job on our bench, not a write-off.

Not the iPad (8th generation) storage or condition you were looking for?

We buy a lot more than we list here. Older iPhones, Samsung and Pixel handsets, iPads, Apple Watches, MacBooks and games consoles all get a real offer, and a cracked or faulty device is still worth something to us because we repair them in house. Tell us what you have and we will come back with a firm price.

No obligation, and nothing to pay. We will not give you a number we cannot honour, so if we need to see it first we will say so.

Three steps

How selling your iPad (8th generation) works

No haggling, no waiting on a callback, and no offer that quietly drops when you arrive.

Get your price

Pick your iPad (8th generation) storage and condition above and the price we pay appears straight away, no waiting for a callback.

Paid the same day

Accept the offer and you are paid there and then, cash or bank transfer, never store credit.

Your price

What your iPad (8th generation) is worth depends on

Storage

Bigger storage means a better price. Tell the finder above which iPad (8th generation) you have and it prices that exact variant.

This buyback range covers the 32GB and 128GB versions of the iPad (8th generation). When you request a quote, choose the capacity your own tablet has so the model is matched correctly from the outset and nothing needs adjusting later.

Screen condition

A cracked screen does not drop you to a faulty price. You keep the condition the phone is otherwise in and we simply take off what the glass costs us to replace, because we replace them ourselves.

The assessment covers the iPad (8th generation) as a whole, so a damaged screen, marks or dents on the body, damaged edges and controls that do not respond are all reflected in the offer. A unit that is free of such faults will always be in a stronger position than one with visible wear.

Body and connector

Dents, scuffs and cracks to the casing are graded as part of the overall condition. A cracked back or a bent frame lowers the offer but rarely rules a device out.

You can send the iPad (8th generation) by post, use the free collection or drop it off at the Haverhill shop counter, and the quote is identical on every route. Once our inspection confirms the offer, the amount is held for 14 days before it expires.

Battery health

Our cut off is 90 per cent, so at or above that there is no deduction at all. Below it we take off what a genuine replacement costs us rather than calling the iPad (8th generation) faulty. Apple's own 80 per cent mark is a repair threshold, not a resale one.

For your iPad (8th generation) to be assessed as fully working, it needs to switch on and the battery needs to hold charge during testing. If it will not power up or will not hold charge, it is treated as faulty and the offer is lowered accordingly.

Whether it powers on

A device that boots and passes our checks is worth more than one that does not, but a dead handset is still worth telling us about rather than binning.

iCloud or Google account lock

We can only buy your iPad (8th generation) once it is signed out of iCloud, with Find My switched off.

If the iPad (8th generation) is linked to your Apple Account, sign out and disable Find My before it leaves your hands. Leaving an activation lock on prevents the tablet from being reset and fully checked, which will only delay the payment process once it reaches mendmyi.

Original parts matter to the price: an aftermarket screen, battery or camera fitted by someone else changes what we can pay. If you are not sure what is in your iPad (8th generation), our guide on how to check a refurbished phone walks through what to look for.

Five minutes

Before you sell: five minutes that protect you

Do these before you hand the device over and the sale goes through without a hitch.

  • 1.Back up what you want to keep

    Photos, contacts and anything else you would not want to lose. If an upgrade is replacing it, here is our guide to moving everything to your new phone.

  • 2.Sign out of iCloud or your Google account

    Turn off Find My before you hand over the iPad (8th generation). A device still signed in cannot be bought from you.

  • 3.Take out the SIM and any memory card

    These are yours to keep and are not part of the sale.

  • 4.Note down the IMEI

    Dial *#06# or check Settings to find it, in case you want a record for your own files.

No surprises

Ownership, ID and your data

Three things worth knowing before you sell anything to anyone, not just to us.

The device has to be yours to sell

We cannot buy a device that is still under contract or on finance, because until it is paid off you are not yet its legal owner. We also cannot buy a device that is part of an ongoing insurance claim, or that has been reported lost or stolen.

"This device is not under contract or finance, is not part of an insurance claim, and has not been reported lost or stolen - I own it outright."

We record name, address and ID on every purchase

We record the name and address of everyone we buy from, and check them against photo ID and proof of address. HMRC requires it: buying from a private seller, we have to raise the purchase invoice ourselves and it must carry your details. Bring the documents into the shop and show us, or send a photo if the device is reaching us another way.

It protects you as much as us: the purchase can always be traced back to a genuine sale rather than an anonymous one. A photocard driving licence showing your current address covers both documents on its own.

GOV.UK: VAT margin schemes, section 6.2

Your data is wiped at our shop

Once your device is checked in, it is fully wiped and factory reset at our shop before it goes anywhere else. Nothing of yours is left behind on it.

Locked in

Your price is held for 14 days

Once we send you an offer for your iPad (8th generation), it is held for 14 days. That gives you time to compare us against the online recyclers before deciding, without the price moving under you.

Selling your iPad (8th generation)

Do I need to remove my Apple Account and disable Find My before selling my iPad (8th generation)?

Yes, remove your Apple Account and disable Find My on the iPad (8th generation) before it goes to mendmyi. An iPad that is still signed in cannot be reset or fully tested, and leaving the activation lock on will delay the sale once it reaches us.

What ways can I use to get my iPad (8th generation) to mendmyi, and does the method affect my offer?

You can use mendmyi's free collection, post the iPad (8th generation) in, or drop it off at the Haverhill shop counter, and each of those routes is paid on exactly the same basis.

What do you need from me before you pay for my iPad (8th generation), and how soon is the payment released?

Photo ID and proof of address are needed before payment can be released, and once both are confirmed the payment goes out the same day. This applies to every sale, whichever route the iPad (8th generation) arrived by.

Would it be better to have mendmyi repair my damaged iPad (8th generation) rather than sell it to you?

That depends on the damage and what you want from the device, and it is a real choice because mendmyi carries out repairs as well as purchases. You can tell us the problem and weigh up repair against sale before deciding, with no pressure in either direction.

If I do not proceed on the day, how long is the offer for my iPad (8th generation) held after inspection?

The offer is held for 14 days after it is confirmed following our inspection. You have the full two weeks to make up your mind before the quote is withdrawn.

Can mendmyi reduce the amount offered once my iPad (8th generation) reaches you?

No. The confirmed offer is exactly what mendmyi pays, and it is not reduced when the iPad (8th generation) arrives or used as a starting point for negotiation.
