How should I pack a CPU for shipping?

Seat the processor in an anti-static clamshell or the original plastic tray if you still have it, never loose in a bag where the pins or contact pads can rub. Wrap that in bubble wrap and pad the box on every side. Our free anti-static mailer ships with everything you need.

Do I need to send the box, cooler, or mounting hardware?

No — send the processor alone. Retail packaging, stock coolers, and brackets don't change your offer, and leaving them out keeps the parcel small and cheap to ship.

Where do I drop the package off?

Any USPS Post Office, UPS Store, or staffed counter that accepts USPS Ground Advantage will scan the prepaid label and take the box. No printer, no fees, no appointment.

When do I get paid for my CPU?

Within 24 hours of your package arriving and passing inspection, Monday through Friday. A single processor typically clears inspection in under an hour.

Four options: Zelle, PayPal, USDC, or a mailed check. You pick at checkout and can change it any time before your package arrives.

Do you buy CPUs with bent pins or dead chips?

Minor bent pins we can straighten still price at the 'used' tier. A chip with snapped or missing pins, a scorched die, or one that won't boot gets no offer on most models — a few carry a broken price, which the form shows when you pick the model — and if you're shipping other parts, put it in the box and we'll recycle it responsibly.

Do you buy laptop or mobile CPUs?

Yes — we buy both desktop and laptop processors. Desktop chips are priced instantly in the form above; send a laptop or mobile CPU through a custom quote and we'll price it by hand, usually within one business day.

What if your inspection lowers my offer?

We email you the revised number and the reason for it. You can accept it, or decline and we ship the processor back to you at our expense — no questions asked.

Selling Your Processor: Common Questions

Where can I sell my CPU online?

Right here. Pick your processor in the form above for an instant cash offer, ship it free with our prepaid label, and get paid within 24 hours of inspection.

How much is my processor worth?

Which processors do you buy?

CPU prices

What processors pay, by series

A processor is priced by its exact model. Today the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 pays up to $543 and the Intel Core i9-9990XE $397. Every chip, with its cores and socket, is on the CPU price list.

What moves the price: the generation and socket (AM5, LGA 1700 and LGA 1851 hold value best), the exact version — the letters after the number matter — and that it boots stable at stock. Guides: what it’s worth · which one you have · testing it · removing and packing it
