Newegg Refreshed, a refurbishment program from Newegg that offers pre-owned products at what the retailer says is competitive prices, will be expanding its selection with the help of CPU Trade-In—a new program that will allow customers to trade in their old processors, helping them obtain newer hardware for gaming, creating, professional, and other uses. Complementing it is the PC Trade-In Program with Intel, a new time-limited program that will allow customers to trade in qualifying PCs for a gift card that can be used toward select PCs with Intel processors.

The trade-in-values include:

  • Core i9-14900K ($380.00)
  • Core i9-13900K ($260.00)
  • Ryzen 9 7950X3D ($320.00)
  • Ryzen 7 7800X3D ($220.00)

How the process works:

  • CPU Trade-In Process
    • “Customers who are interested in trading in their CPU can visit the CPU product page on Newegg to check eligibility and trade-in value.”
    • “Once a trade-in application is submitted and approved, a free shipping label will be provided to ship the CPU to Newegg for evaluation.”
    • “If the trade is accepted, the customer will receive a refund on their new CPU purchase. If the CPU trade is rejected, customers will get the CPU they sent back from Newegg free of charge.”
    • “More details on the CPU Trade-In Program can be found here.”
  • PC Trade-In Program with Intel
    • “In addition to the new CPU Trade-In program, Newegg has also collaborated with Intel to allow customers to trade in qualifying PCs for a Newegg gift card valued up to $400 when purchasing a qualified new PC with an Intel processor from Newegg now through August 11, 2024.”
    • “Eligible PCs for trade-in must be no older than 7 years from the original manufacture date and includes: desktops, laptops, 2-in-1 convertibles, detachables, MacBooks, iPads, and Chromebooks.”
    • “The full PC trade-in criteria can be found here.”

Newegg on that program:

Newegg has already seen success with its similar GPU Trade-In Program, which launched in September 2023. To date, thousands of eligible pre-owned graphics cards have been traded in to be re-purposed for installation into other customers’ desktop PCs through the GPU Trade-In Program.

I've read some bad reviews about their trade in program. They were nitpicking the fully functional trade ins and sending them back saying they were defective on the GPU side at least.

Well, just from my one, and only one experience, it worked as advertised. I was actually pretty happy with it. I traded a 3080ti for a 4080 Super. However, I did have the original box, accessories, etc, etc. But, with the Intel 3x and 4x fiasco, how likely is anyone going to buy a used Intel chip? After reading about it, I'd be sticking with AMD for now. (Nothing against AMD, have one and am stupid happy with it.)
