Terms of purchase
Last updated July 30, 2026
These terms apply when Magoon LLC, trading as Data Center Buyback ("we", "us"), buys hardware from you. Sending us an inventory list does not create a contract; a contract forms when you accept our written offer.
1. Offers
- Offers are made in writing, per unit, against the inventory list you send us.
- An offer is based on what you describe. It assumes the hardware is complete, was working when it came out of service, and matches the models, quantities and configuration listed.
- Offers are valid for 14 days from the date we send them unless we say otherwise in writing.
- You are under no obligation to accept an offer, and nothing moves until you do.
2. What we buy
We buy working hardware for continued use. We do not buy equipment that is faulty, dead or untested. If you are not sure whether something powers on, tell us before we make the offer rather than after.
3. Your title and authority
By accepting an offer you confirm that you own the hardware outright, or are authorized by the owner to sell it, and that it is free of any lease, finance agreement, retention of title, lien or other third-party interest. If any of the hardware turns out to be subject to one, we may return it at your cost or withhold payment for those items.
4. Freight
- We arrange and pay for freight on agreed lots, including pallets, packaging, liftgate where needed, the dock appointment and the bill of lading.
- Smaller lots ship by parcel on our account instead. We will tell you which applies.
- You are responsible for giving accurate pickup details — address, receiving hours, dock or liftgate, and any site access requirements. Re-deliveries caused by inaccurate details may be charged back to you at cost.
- Risk and title pass to us when the shipment is checked in at our facility against the agreed list, not at pickup.
- Shipments are insured in transit at the agreed offer value.
5. Check-in and variance
We check every shipment against the agreed list on arrival. Where what arrives differs from what was agreed — different models, different configuration, missing components, or items that do not power on — we will tell you, show you what we found, and either revise the offer for those lines or return them to you at our cost. You decide which.
6. Payment
- We pay by ACH once the shipment is checked in against the agreed list, typically the same business day it lands. Wire transfer on request.
- We do not pay cash.
- As a matter of company policy, we require photo ID for the seller, and confirmation of authority to sell, before we release payment.
- Payment is made to the business or individual named as the seller, not to a third party.
7. Drives and stored data
Whether drives are included in the sale or removed before pickup is a commercial term, agreed per shipment and reflected in the price. Where drives are included, you are responsible for clearing any data on them beforehand. We do not offer, and do not hold ourselves out as offering, any service in relation to data on the hardware you send us.
8. Liability
Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, or for anything that cannot be limited under applicable law. Otherwise our total liability in connection with any purchase is limited to the agreed offer value for the hardware in question, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, and the courts of Cook County, Illinois have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of them.
