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 Apple devices from sellers who are abroad, leaving or visiting, with a written WhatsApp quote, free pickup in every emirate and AED bank transfer on the pickup day. 70 verified Google reviews sit on its Business Profile.
01
Quote from any country
The quote form works from anywhere. The written AED figure sits in your WhatsApp thread before anyone in the UAE is asked to do anything.
02
A named contact can hand it over
Spouse, colleague, PRO or concierge. The courier checks the device with them and messages the result to you, not them.
03
Foreign spec, UAE price band
US, UK, EU, Indian and Saudi units are priced by model and condition, not by the country on the receipt, once unlocked and clean.
04
Paid to your UAE account on the pickup day
AED transfer to any UAE bank account in your name, including one you keep after leaving, or cash to the person at the door.
How it works
Five steps for your Apple device. Pickup can be the same day in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman when you book early; other emirates on a day you choose. Payment is made at the door on the pickup day.

Fill in the quote form with your Apple device model, storage, condition and UAE area. It takes a couple of minutes.

"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
Sell from abroad FAQ
Direct answers for sellers who are leaving, already abroad or visiting the UAE. Each answer stands alone so it can be quoted on its own.
Yes, in two ways. Lock a written quote in the quote form from wherever you are and book the pickup for the day you land, or have a family member, colleague or building concierge in the UAE hand the device to the courier on your behalf. Either way the figure is written before anyone moves and payment goes to the UAE bank account you name.
Fill in the quote form with the model, storage, condition and the UAE address where the device is. The desk sends a written AED quote that holds for 1-5 days. Name the person handing it over and a pickup window. The courier checks the device with them at the door, confirms the figure in your WhatsApp thread, and the transfer lands in your UAE account the same day.
Yes. Any adult you name in the WhatsApp thread can hand the device to the courier: a spouse, a colleague, a PRO, a concierge. They do not need to negotiate or sign anything. The courier confirms the device against the written quote, messages you the result, and payment goes to your account, not theirs, unless you say otherwise.
Yes. US, UK, EU, Indian, Saudi and Asian-spec iPhones, MacBooks, iPads and Apple Watches are bought at the same UAE price band once the serial is clean. iPhones must be factory unlocked. The desk checks each unit against Apple's records for loss or theft, but the country of purchase does not change the figure.
A carrier-locked iPhone is only bought once the carrier has released it, because it cannot be resold on UAE networks. A US eSIM-only iPhone is bought at the same band as a UAE dual-SIM unit, since du and Etisalat both issue eSIMs. Say which carrier the phone came from in the quote form and the desk checks the lock status before quoting.
AED, by UAE bank transfer to any UAE account in your name, including an account you keep open after leaving the country. Cash on collection is available to the person handing over the device if you ask when booking. The desk does not send international wires or pay in foreign currency.
No, once the serial is clean and the iPhone is unlocked. Model, storage, battery health and condition set the figure, not the country on the receipt. The only practical difference is the charger plug on a MacBook, which does not change the quote because UAE buyers use an adapter or a replacement cable.
A written quote holds for 1-5 days from the WhatsApp message. If you land later than that, message again the day before you arrive and the desk refreshes the figure; the model and condition are already on file. 70 verified Google reviews describe that same written-then-paid handover.
Yes, and it is the easiest case. Message a few days before your flight, book the pickup for your last morning, and the courier collects from your apartment or office. Keep your UAE bank account open until the transfer lands on the pickup day, or take cash on collection if the account is already closed.
Sign out of iCloud and turn off Find My remotely from another device or at icloud.com/find before the pickup. The desk erases the device with Apple's own tools once it is bought and clears Activation Lock before resale. A written wipe note per serial is available on request, sent to you in the WhatsApp thread.
FAQ
People also ask
Long-tail questions expats and visitors type into Google and ChatGPT.
Yes, if the MacBook is in the UAE or you are bringing it in. The desk does not collect across the border, so either a contact in the UAE hands it over or you book the pickup for a day you are in the country. The written quote, free pickup and AED transfer on the pickup day work the same way.
No. Name the person handing it over in the WhatsApp thread and the courier deals with them at the door. The written figure, the inspection result and the payment confirmation all come to your thread, so you stay in control of the sale from wherever you are.
No, once it is factory unlocked and the serial is clean. US models are eSIM-only, which works on du and Etisalat, and use the same FaceTime-capable firmware as UAE units. The desk prices by model, storage, battery and condition, and the country of purchase is not one of those inputs.
Yes. Lock the quote before you fly, book the pickup for your hotel or a relative's address, and the courier collects during your stay. Bring the device signed out of iCloud with Find My off. Payment goes to a UAE bank account in your name, or cash at the door if you do not hold one.
