At Foxway, we strive to provide seamless and efficient logistics solutions for our trade-in programs. Whether customers choose to trade in their devices online or in-store, our logistics processes are designed to ensure smooth operations, timely processing, and customer satisfaction. This article provides an overview of the logistics process for both online and in-store trade-in scenarios, highlighting the key steps involved in each process.
To ensure smooth transactions between you and Foxway, we recommend shipping in-store devices weekly or bi-weekly, depending on the volume of devices. This helps maintain a healthy cash flow and prevents losses due to device value depreciation. The price of the device is fixed for 35 days from the date when it is registered by the vendor or consumer in Foxway systems. Therefore, it's crucial to send the devices within this period to receive the assigned price.
The Foxway standard Service Level Agreement (SLA) for transport is 10 workdays.
