WHO IS PHONE DADDY?

That means no surprises with our products, and if there are any, we have a one year warranty and 30 day return guarantee.


WHY BUY USED


So why should we buy used tech? When you buy used phones and other devices, you’re giving them another life. Smartphones produce 85% to 95% of their emissions during the manufacturing process. The overproduction of these devices is a significant threat to the environment. Phone Daddy is dedicated to fighting this cycle of excess by promoting used phones for sale.


We believe it’s possible to provide our customers with the best deals on used devices while being environmentally friendly. We are passionate about sustainability and strive to make a positive impact on the world by destigmatizing used tech. The manufacturing of new smartphones has a significant impact on the environment. So, when you buy a used device, you help reduce electronic waste and lower carbon emissions, all while saving money.


Not only does this offset the carbon emissions of buying a new phone, but it also helps reduce the amount of e-waste ending up in landfills. In 2022, 5.3 billion mobile phones were thrown into landfills, and it is estimated that e-waste will grow to 74 million tons a year by 2030. So, by choosing to buy used tech, you can make a significant difference and support us on our journey to making the tech industry a more sustainable place.

Our customer care team always has your back. Closely monitoring customer complaints, and intervening to resolve disputes, when necessary.

In addition to all of this, perks from purchasing from Phone Daddy include:

  • Phone Daddy Certified

  • 1 Year Warranty

  • Free Shipping

  • Several Payment Methods

SUSTAINABILITY


Smartphones produce 85% to 95% of their emissions from the manufacturing phase. This means that the most important action we can take is to fight back against the overproduction of smartphones. This cycle of overproduction creates an unsustainable road forward for the environment, and Phone Daddy is inspired to change this. By buying used, consumers can offset the carbon emissions from purchasing a new phone and reduce the amount of e-waste thrown away in landfills. In 2019 alone, smartphones contributed to 10% of global e-waste.


WHAT IS A CARBON OFFSET?


A carbon offset is a term that is used to describe the reduction of 1 metric ton (2,205 pounds) of carbon emissions. Since there are instances of carbon emission that are impossible to avoid, offsets are the next best solution for our Earth and the environment. For example, if an activity emits 1 metric ton of carbon into the air, a carbon offset is an instrument that can be used to offset 1 metric ton of carbon elsewhere.


WHERE DOES PHONE DADDY FIT INTO THE PICTURE?


When Phone Daddy was founded, we wanted to create a way for people to have a sustainable avenue to buy tech that was better for the environment. The world is manufacturing more consumer tech than there is demand for, and we are trying to slow down the rate of that production. Currently, there isn’t the greatest stigma around used consumer electronics and we are on a mission to change that. If a used phone works like new and looks like new, shouldn’t it sell like new?
