Crystal Buy-Back Program
Got some crystals that no longer resonate? We the Starborne offers a crystal buy-back program to help circulate gently used and well loved crystals that are ready for their next careful keeper. Receive in-store credit for any crystals we accept.
-
Book your appointment and show up on time -- late arrivals will need to reschedule!
Bring in your crystal collection in a box or bag and neatly wrap them for safety. If you have a large collection (more than 3 full boxes/bags), please book two 30min time slots.
Give us 30minutes (ish) to review your collection while you hang out, grab a coffee next door, and/or shop!
We calculate the buy-back amount based on what we believe we can sell the crystal for and give you 50% of that total as store credit. We do NOT give out cash for our buy-back program under any circumstances.
-
Crystals only -- we do not do buy-backs on other sacred tools like burnables, tarot decks, candles, etc. at this time.
Crystals must be intact and unbroken/unchipped
Crystals must be clean and free of old price tags/labels
We reserve the right to decline any crystal for any reason -- sometimes we just don't need more of a certain type of crystal, or sometimes it just doesn't feel like the right fit for the shop -- it's never personal!
To cleanse or not to cleanse? Many people wonder if they need to do something to cleanse their crystals before passing them on to us. Although we recommend sending gratitude to your crystals before parting with them and thanking them for their work and wisdom with you thus far, it is NOT required to cleanse your crystals before dropping them off. We do regular crystal cleansing for all specimens that find their way into the shop so rest assured they will be well taken care of :)
Please only bring crystals you are ready to part with -- this service is NOT a way to get your crystals appraised or identified. When you drop your crystals off, we will do our best to estimate reasonable prices with our knowledge of the current market and demand. We do not haggle or barter with our buy-back program and ask that anyone participating respect the dollar amounts we deem appropriate for our shop.
