Consumer electronics is one of the fastest growing sectors
in the United States at an over $4 billion dollar increase in growth from last
year. This
past year in 2012, Americans purchased over $206 billion dollars worth of
electronics devices, most of which have a 1.5 to 3 year life span.
While this new wave of technology consumption is both
exciting and fast paced , the quick turnover of
newly purchased electronics to make way for new and improved models creates a
vast quantity of used electronics that are destined for a junk drawer or even
worse a landfill. In fact, for cell
phones alone, over 150 million were discarded in the U.S last year and now
reside in your local landfill. There are
also tens of millions of computers, laptops, tablets, mp3 players, televisions
and many other devices that follow this same path.
This is not only detrimental to the environment, but is
wasteful to you the consumer! There is
still a significant monetary value in your old used electronics, and our
service was created to fill this need.

Introduction letter about the
company:
Hello!
My name is Tim Gonyeau and I am the founder of a small
company called Giztopia.com (
http://www.giztopia.com/). We are a new company that specializes in
purchasing outdated, used, old and forgotten electronics from clients
throughout the U.S before they hit a landfill or the junk drawer!
For some background information we began as a small local
off-line company but within the last 6 months have decided to branch out our
services online to the rest of the country due to the great customer
experiences we have had so far.
Our reason for starting this website/service was
simple. Over 160 million+ cell phones,
20 million+ laptops, and countless millions of tablets and MP3 players go out
of use each year and less than 10% are recycled responsibly. The remaining 90% end up in a junk drawer or
worse, a landfill.
This is very bad for the environment, and this is very bad
for the consumer as there is still value left in those old electronic devices!
(or gizmos as we call them) Many
companies have risen up lately to meet this need but unfortunately based on
personal experience most do not have the best interest of the customer in mind,
and are taking advantage of a large emerging market. (Much like gold purchasing
has become) Many companies have been
following practices of poor customer service, slow payout times, bait and
switch techniques (promising more and mailing a check for less), unethical
assessment of condition and many more negative practices.
We can do better, and
in order for this new industry to thrive companies must do better than the
current practice. We combine the best
aspects of many websites within our industry such as fast payment, high rate
payment, instant quotes, free prepaid shipping, 100% sustainable reuse and
recycling practices, a diverse product buy-back selection, easy tracking, a
safe/easy to use website, and most importantly great customer service.
Many websites offer one or a few of the above features but
most to this date have yet to offer a complete package that will really entice
people to participate in recycling their old electronics.
Below is a more detailed explanation of what makes our
business unique:
·
