Cancellation policy

Cancellation of pre-owned tech (i.e., phones and other tech devices) can only be done through a phone call:[1]

You can return most items in-store or by calling our customer service at 1-800-883-8895; online orders may be returned in-store without a fee, and shipped returns will incur a fee of $8.99. Pre-owned Tech (i.e., phones and other tech devices) are returnable only via calling customer service.

Hold times for cancellation are significantly longer than other reasons for calls at the same time of day [proof?].
