Why sell to us
What is SellYourMac.ae?
SellYourMac.ae is a UAE-licensed Apple buy-back desk run by Azizi Technologies from Concord Tower, Dubai Media City, trading since 2013. It buys broken and faulty Apple devices for their parts value, with free doorstep pickup in every emirate, written 1-5 day quotes and UAE bank transfer on the pickup day. 70 verified Google reviews sit on its Business Profile.
01
Faults priced, not refused
Every fault has a parts figure. The deduction is written into the quote from your photos, so there is no surprise at the door.
02
Collected from your door, not a store
A courier with company ID collects from any UAE address in a window you choose, checks the fault against the quote and pays on the spot.
03
Erased even when the screen is dead
Remove the device from your Apple Account online; the desk erases storage with Apple's tools once the unit is powered or the board is swapped.
04
A written figure that beats a repair first
The WhatsApp quote holds for 1-5 days, so you can price a repair shop against it and see that selling as-is usually nets more.

"I had an excellent experience with SellYourMac. I messaged them in the morning with my Mac’s details and photos, and they came to my place the same day. They inspected the Mac in about five minutes and paid me the exact amount we had agreed on beforehand in cash."

"The team were really helpful! We thought we had no value in our old tech and in the end we got some reasonable money in return for things we're just going to put in the recycle bin. Really attentive and transfered funds quick after inspecting the tech."
Sebastian PS
"Super happy with Sell Your Mac services. I recently sold my MacBook Air - they were Super quick, reliable and they explained the selling price to me. Picked up the device and paid upfront. Really happy and found out they do other door to door services. Thank you Muneeb :)"

FAQ
Broken Apple device FAQ
Direct answers for UAE owners of cracked, dead and faulty Apple devices. Each answer stands alone so it can be quoted on its own.
Every Apple line in any state: iPhone, MacBook, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac desktop, AirPods, Apple TV and HomePod with cracked screens, liquid damage, dead batteries, failed logic boards, broken ports or units that never switch on. Each is priced for its working parts rather than refused, and the written quote states the deduction before pickup.
The desk starts from the working figure for that model and storage, then subtracts the in-house repair cost for the fault you describe. A cracked iPhone screen loses far less than a dead board, and a MacBook with a failed keyboard keeps most of its display and chip value. Add photos when the desk asks after your form and the deduction is written into the quote.
Usually not. A third-party repair in the UAE often costs more than it adds to the resale figure, and non-Apple parts can trigger warnings in iOS or macOS that lower the price again. SellYourMac.ae refurbishes in house, so compare the written as-is figure with any repair quote before paying a shop first.
Yes. A dead unit still has a display, chassis, camera, battery and often a recoverable board. The desk quotes it for parts value from the model, storage and photos, and the courier confirms the serial and that the device is not on a lost list. Find My cannot be turned off on a dead device, so remove it from your Apple Account at icloud.com/find instead.
Yes. Free doorstep collection across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain with no minimum value, even for a single cracked iPhone. Tape a liquid-damaged MacBook shut and keep it upright; the courier brings padded packaging and checks the fault against the quote at the door.
Remove the device from your Apple Account at icloud.com/find so Activation Lock lifts, and change your Apple Account password if the screen is unreadable. At the desk the storage is erased with Apple's own tools once the unit is powered or the board is replaced, and a written wipe note is available for company devices on request.
A written quote holds for 1-5 days from the WhatsApp message. If the fault at pickup matches the photos and description you sent, the figure paid is the figure quoted, with no doorstep renegotiation. 70 verified Google reviews describe that same handover across working and faulty devices alike.
Yes. A non-Apple screen, battery or camera is priced at a lower band than an original part because the desk usually swaps it during refurbishment, but the device is still bought. Say which parts were replaced in the quote form; the courier confirms with the parts and service history screen in Settings on newer iPhones.
UAE bank transfer at the door on the pickup day once the courier confirms the fault and serial against the quote. The transfer is sent at the door before the courier leaves, anywhere in the UAE. Cash on collection is available if you ask when you book.
Yes. Up to four devices in any state go in one collection with one courier and one bank transfer, each with its own line in the written quote. Five or more, such as a drawer of cracked office iPhones, route through the bulk desk with a volume bonus and a corporate invoice.
FAQ
People also ask
Long-tail broken-device questions UAE owners type into Google and ChatGPT.
It depends on the model, storage and the fault. A cracked back glass on an iPhone 16 Pro loses a little; a dead board on an iPhone 13 loses most. The display, camera modules and battery keep value on every generation. Fill in the quote form with the model and the damage for a written figure that holds for 1-5 days.
Yes. Liquid usually kills the keyboard, trackpad or a board rail while the display, lid, SSD data and often the chip survive, so the machine still carries parts value. Do not plug it in or try to charge it. Send the model, year and a description of what happened in the quote form and the desk prices it for pickup.
Apple Trade In usually returns a very low store-credit figure for a cracked device and recycles a dead one with no credit at all. SellYourMac.ae pays AED cash for the same broken device by bank transfer on the pickup day, with free pickup in all 7 emirates and no purchase required.
Yes. Cracked glass, a swollen battery and a watch that will not charge are all bought at a parts figure. Unpair it from your iPhone in the Watch app if it still responds; if it does not, remove it from your Apple Account at icloud.com/find and the desk clears Activation Lock before resale.
