Mostly looking at 22-inch and up, IPS panels. Smaller or older monitors usually have parts value (panels, drivers) but limited resale, so the per-unit estimate drops. Mention size and rough age and we'll be straight with you.

Condition we'll consider

Working pays best. Broken pays parts.

A
Working, normal wear

Boots, runs, no issues. The standard refresh-cycle disposal. Best value.

Best estimate
B
Working, missing bits

Towers without RAM, drives pulled, no power cable. Common in office handovers. Reduced offer to cover replacement parts.

Discounted
C
Dead-on-arrival monitors

No backlight, dead pixels everywhere, broken stand. Panels, drivers, stands all have parts value.

CRT monitors

Old tube monitors. Sorry, not us — transport and disposal cost outweighs value. Try a local recycler.

No
Worth knowing

A few things specific to desks & screens.

Desktops with drives in: we wipe them to NIST 800-88 spec, same as laptops. Pull the drive yourself if you'd rather, no problem.

iMacs with embedded drives: the drive is part of the logic board on Apple Silicon iMacs. Wipe is via DFU restore + reset. Same outcome, different method, same certificate.

Monitors with stuck pixels: usually fine. We test and either resell, refurb the panel, or strip for parts.

Cables, mice, keyboards in the same boxes: include them. The OEM accessories add value to a refurbished unit.
