Cash Traders

Cash Traders, a buy-sell-repair shop for phones and gadgets in Blackpool

Cash Traders Limited operates from 50 Abingdon Street in Blackpool, Lancashire, and describes itself as a store dedicated to helping people stay connected. Its activity combines four lines: buying used devices from the public, reselling quality-checked devices, repairing handsets and other equipment, and purchasing gold and silver. The company states it has been in business since 2013.

What the shop buys

The buying side covers phones, tablets, laptops, smartwatches, consoles, cameras and accessories. The site presents the process as straightforward: customers can sell in-store or by post, and payment is offered in cash or by bank transfer. The company advertises that it applies no hidden fees and that it works with market prices.

Alongside electronics, Cash Traders buys gold jewellery, coins, bars and scrap gold. In this line it highlights instant cash payment, no melting charges and what it describes as a transparent process.

Devices for sale and buy-back

The retail side offers phones, laptops, tablets, smartwatches and accessories that the company says are quality checked. The store advertises a five-year warranty on the devices it sells and states that it holds a wide range in stock.

Cash Traders also runs a buy-back scheme: it offers to repurchase devices previously sold, presenting the option as an alternative to an exchange, with instant valuation and cash in hand.

Repair service

Repairs are handled by technicians for phones, tablets, laptops and other equipment. The company mentions quick turnaround, the use of high-quality parts and a 24-month warranty on repair work. It also states that it can carry out repairs at the customer's doorstep on a date and time agreed in advance, extending the service beyond the shop itself.

Company background and reach

According to its own account, Cash Traders has built relationships with customers since 2013 and recognises what they look for in a device. The launch of its online store allowed it to reach an international audience, with prices updated according to market movements. The company reports branches in Portugal and Turkey and expresses an intention to continue expanding internationally.

The website cites a Trustpilot score of 4.8 out of 5 based on more than 1,000 reviews, and states that it has served thousands of customers. Payment methods listed for purchases include Visa, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, American Express, Klarna and Clearpay.
