GoKawiilMaingear partners with SELLIT9 for instant trade-in credit on PC purchases
Maingear has teamed up with Canadian recycling firm SELLIT9 to let customers trade in used electronics—including laptops, phones, tablets, and cameras—for instant gift card credit toward new Maingear desktops or laptops. The program is live now, and a promotional code offers an extra 5% trade-in value through October 14.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The move lets Maingear position itself against rising component and memory prices by offering a low-friction way for buyers to offset costs with old gear, rather than relying on discounts alone. It also marks what appears to be SELLIT9's first major U.S. partnership after raising $4.1 million to expand into the American market, suggesting the trade-in service is looking to scale beyond Canada through retail tie-ins like this one.
- Maingear now offers instant trade-in credit via SELLIT9 for a wide range of used electronics.
- A promo code gives an extra 5% trade-in value until October 14.
- The partnership may be SELLIT9's entry point into the U.S. market after a recent $4.1 million funding round.
