With eight shops across the UK and a website where you can buy, sell and get a buyback price online, we make quality pre-owned simple, fair and trusted. We are not new to this. Our shops and our people have years of experience on the high street, Mintro is that experience under our own name, with better prices and standards throughout.

If your item develops a fault, bring it back and we put it right. The Guarantee does not cover accidental damage, water damage or misuse, see T&C's Selling, or need value from something you own without letting it go for good? Bring your tech, gold, jewellery, watches or designer pieces to any Mintro shop for a fair price, or use our buyback service, simple, clearly explained, no surprises.

Great customer service.

Popped into the Bradford store recently to potentially find a new guitar as recently my own broke. Chris was very helpful in showing me round the options the store had in, unfortunately I couldn't find one for me but wanted to highlight Chris' customer service skills and aid in my search for a new instrument.

Thanks Maddison, and sorry we did not have the right guitar for you this time. I will pass your comments on to Chris. Our stock changes all the time so it is worth popping back in, or ask Chris to keep an eye out for you. Jessica, Mintro

Such a massive difference

I bought a playstation 5 last year and as such my PS4 had been sitting stored away in a box since. I had wanted to free up some cash so I went into cash convertors next door to your shop and asked them for their price. They tried to low ball me by saying the console wasnt original as it was the blue limited edition Days of Play PS4 console and had a blue case and gold playstation badges/ patterns on the top and a blue controller with the same patterns/detailing. The general experience felt awkward and forced. I left and popped into your shop and spoke to Kyle at the desk who not only offered me a fair price but didn't insult my inteligence by trying to tell me it was worth less than a standard ps4. He is a credit to you guys and made me feel at ease after such a contrasting experince with your neighbours. I decided I wanted to keep it after all so instead of selling it he explained that I could put it in the shop for a cash loan and getbit back out at a later date, so I went ahead and signed the paperwork and walked away with the bit of cash I needed, without actually parting with my old console forever. Belting stuff.

I also noticed that the shop has recently been upgraded too as well which is really nice because it looks more professional and its only right that it matches the service provided. If I need to do the same thing in future when I upgrade I know where I will be going straight to next time. Just want to thank Kyle again for the customer service and for treating me like a human, nice one mate
(Also what a good name haha)

Thanks Kyle, what a review. That is exactly how it should work. A fair, honest price, and if you would rather keep the console then a short term loan against it so you get the cash without losing something you love. Kyle at the desk is a credit to us and I will make sure he reads this. Glad you like the new look store too. You know where we are next time. Jessica, Mintro
