We buy your broken screens

PRC buys broken phone and tablet screens from other repair shops and resellers. We refurbish and reglass them here in St Marys. Send us a batch, we test every screen individually, and you get paid on what passes.

122 Queen Street, St Marys. Screens are graded and refurbished on site, not sent elsewhere.

Who this is for

Repair shops, resellers, refurbishers

If you replace screens all week, you are sitting on stock that has value. Most shops have a drawer or a box of them and nowhere sensible to send it.

This is not our phone buyback. Phone buyback covers whole working devices and is priced on a different basis. This page is screens, bought for refurbishing and reglassing.

The line we draw

Grading standard

Two outcomes, nothing in between. We tell you which one every screen landed on and why.

AGrade A and Grade B, we buy

  • Grade A: Cracked glass only, OEM OLED/LCD fully working, 3D touch working, no lines, no bleed
  • Grade B: Cracked glass, minor backlight marks, minor pressure marks that do not affect the image, no lines, no bleed

XRejected, nil value

  • Lines on the display
  • Black spots or ink bleed
  • Touch failure or erratic response
  • Aftermarket or non-OEM screens
  • Severed or damaged flex cables
  • Water damage or corrosion
  • Frame separation or bent bracket
Four steps, no surprises

How it works

1

Log in and check the prices

Your mobile number and a code. The price list covers every model we buy, Grade A and Grade B.

2

Pack and post

Tell us what you are sending and we issue a shipping label. Free shipping label on batches of 10 screens or more.

3

We test every screen

Individually, not by sampling. You get a report with the accepted count, the rejected count and the reasons.

4

You get paid

Accept the report and choose PayID or bank transfer. Payment goes out against your reference.

Why traders keep sending

How we stay straight with you

Every screen is tested on its own. Flex cable shake, white, black and grey backgrounds, touch and 3D touch. Nothing is graded by sampling a box and assuming the rest.

If a screen is not Grade A we tell you why, using the same five categories every time. If you disagree with a grading, say so within seven days and we send that screen back. No argument.

We do not downgrade screens for financial gain. We are buying stock to refurbish, and a supplier who stops trusting us stops sending us screens.

!Rejected screens

Rejected screens carry nil value. Choose one:

  • Collect them from St Marys.
  • We post them back at your cost.
  • We post them back and deduct $20 postage from your payout.
  • We discard them.

Tell us within 7 days of the report. After 7 days they are discarded without further notice.

The people doing the testing

Inside the workshop

Real bench, real technicians, one address. Your screens do not leave the building until they are graded.

Getting them to us

Shipping

Free shipping label on batches of 10 screens or more. Under 10 screens the label is $20 and is deducted from your payout. Return shipping, if you want rejected screens back, is at your cost. Once you tell us your batch count through your trade account, we email you a prepaid shipping label. Tape it to your parcel and drop it at any Australia Post outlet.

A shipping label belongs to a registered trade account so we can track and reconcile your batch the moment it arrives at our workshop. Return shipping, if you ask for rejected screens back, is at your cost.

Pack to protect both sides

Before you post

Protecting your screens in transit protects your payout. We count and grade every screen against what you wrote on your manifest, which is how short counts and disputes get avoided.

1

List model and quantity

Include a manifest showing every model and count in the box. This manifest is what our receiving bench reconciles against to avoid short counts and disputes.

2

Pack face to face with card

Place screens face to face with thick card between them. A loose screen wrapped only in bubble wrap can flex and crack during transit.

3

Tape the box securely

Use a sturdy box that matches the batch size and tape all seams firmly. Fill any empty space with packing material so screens cannot move.

4

Keep your tracking number

Affix the prepaid label to the box and lodge it at Australia Post. Keep the lodgement receipt and tracking number for your records.

Straight answers

Questions we get asked

Who can sell screens to PRC?

Repair shops, resellers and refurbishers. This is a trade service. We buy in batches, not single screens over the counter.

Is this the same as your phone buyback?

No. Phone buyback is for whole working devices and is priced separately. This page is screens only, bought for refurbishing and reglassing.

Which screens do you buy?

iPhone, iPad, Galaxy S, Galaxy Note, Galaxy A, and Flip and Fold. Grade A and Grade B only.

What makes a screen Grade A or B?

Grade A has cracked glass only with OEM OLED or LCD fully working, 3D touch working, no lines and no bleed. Grade B has cracked glass with minor backlight marks or minor pressure marks that do not affect the image, no lines and no bleed.

What gets rejected?

Screens with lines on the display, black spots or ink bleed, touch failure, aftermarket screens, severed flex cables, water damage, or frame separation.

How do I see your prices?

Log in with your mobile number. We text you a code. First time, we ask for your business details once. After that the number alone gets you in.

How do you test?

Every screen individually. Flex cable shake, white, black and grey backgrounds, touch and 3D touch. You get a report showing what was accepted and what was rejected.

What if I disagree with a grading?

Tell us within seven days and we return that screen to you. No argument, no obligation.

What happens to rejected screens?

They carry nil value. Collect them from St Marys, or we post them back at your cost, or we post them back and deduct twenty dollars postage from your payout. Tell us within seven days of the report or they are discarded.

Who pays for shipping?

Free shipping label on batches of 10 screens or more. Under 10 screens the label is $20 and is deducted from your payout. Return shipping, if you want rejected screens back, is at your cost.
