#CleanUpCashOut This Diwali, Let's celebrate freeing up space through Cashify

Diwali is the festival wherein everyone in great enthusiasm and spirit tries to clean up inside the house and outside too – there is no greater advocate as a festival to embrace the real idea of “swacch bharat”, the way Diwali does.

Diwali in essence is all about cleaning up all those items that you no more need to ensure that your house is free of space and allows the divine embracement of goddess Lakshmi – to welcome whom we all decorate our houses with lights and flowers, clean it up and therefore it becomes pivotal to also get rid of anything that’s old and no more needed.

This Diwali I too had my tryst with selling off all that I no more need, starting off with my 6 year old Dell Mini Laptop – which has been a truly great friend in need, due to it’s small size and therefore easy to carry flexibility. However, finding a buyer to pay reasonably for this 6 year old laptop (still working) wasn’t easy.

I began my search for the right buyer across my friend circle, only to be mimicked and made fun of, with my friends taunting me “bro, sell it for free, don’t be greedy. It’s a 6 year old laptop, whose going to pay anything for this!”

Well, I didn’t want them to be right. Afterall, Dell’s a big brand and the laptop worked just fine. To add to this, I had just bought a new charger for it and selling it off without making anything sounded a foolish idea to me.

No one in my friend’s circle wanted the laptop, so I turned over to electronic shops that entertain 2nd hand items.

After weeks of tiring efforts, only one shop agreed to pay me a minimal sum of just Rs500 for a laptop that is clearly around 10,000 in today’s market. I was disappointed and frustrated at how a reasonable seller was being made to sell a working item for far lesser the price that it deserves.
Having no choice, I had to give over my laptop to the shop and accept basically nothing payment of Rs500 in return. I was dejected and said.

A few days later, I met my friend Santosh.

Santosh had recently sold his old HP laptop for around 2000 and I was astonished, since his laptop and mine were approx. the same age and quite bit similar in specs as well. He had however gotten 1500 more for his laptop, whereas I got just 500.

I asked Santosh to which shop did he sell and he laughed and just said “shop? Come on man, that’s so outdated”.

I was a bit taken a back, if not an electronic store, to whom did he make the sale? I asked him.
Santosh then told me about Cashify. He explained that Cashify is the platform that believes in #CleanUpCashOut, the very platform that gives you an instant quote for your old gadget, provides you hassle free pick-up and gives you on-spot payment.

I was absolutely intrigued. I had no idea that such a platform existed for US – the middle class that looks to make the most of our old gadgets, that we always maintain in a good condition but while selling them, we’re often taken for a ride and made to settle for far lesser than the deserving prize.
I’m definitely shifting my way of selling, why don’t you too?

When trying Cashify for the first time, please use the code CLEANCASH to get additional Rs250 back on your sale.


This is how my view of selling my old items has changed and it has all to do with the coming of Cashify – a platform that is set to change the way we sell our old gadgets.
