We recommend packing your trade-in items as best as possible to avoid any damaged in the post on its journey to us. Guidelines on how you should pack your trade-in can be found below:
We would advise that customer post via the post office – ‘According to Royal Mail Packetpost instructions, it's recommend that all items are sent via the Post Office(TM), as all items will receive a proof of posting (which helps cover against fraud, and also without which you cannot claim for any loss or damage against Royal Mail). If posted in a pillar-box, the customer should be aware of having no proof of posting. To find your closest Post Office(TM) location, visit the branch finder or go to www.royalmail.co.uk and select 'branch finder'.
IMPORTANT: We advise getting sufficient insurance for any trade-in you send. ShopTo is not responsible for goods that are lost or damaged in the mail.
Please only send your item(s) to the address printed on your trade-in label. If this is sent to any other address we will not receive this and you will not receive a ShopTo credit note.
