New to RecycleVAR
A B2B marketplace and directory for used, refurbished and new enterprise IT hardware: servers, networking, storage, memory, drives, printers and parts. Buyers and sellers deal directly; RecycleVAR does not sell items itself or hold payment.
Any business that buys or sells IT hardware, including independent brokers and sourcing agents, with any email address. Signing up is free.
Yes. Search by part number or brand, and post a Wanted (WTB) request on the Wanted board even without an account. Sellers reply to you.
Open your company's page and click to claim it. It is free and verified by an email link sent to an address at your company's own domain.
Getting started
Click the rocket at the top right of the dashboard. It shows your setup progress and the next steps: company profile, logo, first listings and verification.
RecycleVAR is free for every member through December 31, 2026: listing, search, messaging, Wanted requests and every tool. No card is needed and nothing switches to a paid plan automatically.
Your daily feed: buyers who want parts you list, new stock in the brands you trade, and listings of yours that need a stock update.
Yes. The company owner invites team members from Account.
Listing & inventory
Quick List: paste part numbers (with quantity and price if you like), one per line. They are matched to the catalog automatically. You can also upload a spreadsheet or add one item at a time.
Yes. In Import / Feeds paste any link to your stock file (website, login, FTP/SFTP, Google Sheets, Dropbox, OneDrive) and choose a schedule. You can also upload a file once.
List it anyway. Quick List marks it New part; confirm the manufacturer and it is added to the catalog with your listing.
Open My Inventory to edit or delete any item. To change quantity or price you can also paste the part into Quick List again.
Listings not updated for 14+ days show as "Stale – confirm stock". Re-upload your file or confirm quantities. Listings that go a long time without an update get a reminder, then are hidden so buyers only see live stock.
Show a price when you can (no price shows "Call for price"), be exact about condition (New, New Open Box, Refurbished, Used, For Parts), keep quantities fresh, and answer Wanted requests with a quote.
Instant Valuation is free: paste part numbers and quantities to see live market prices, seller counts and the estimated resale value of your inventory. Find it under Inventory in the dashboard menu or in the site footer.
Price Check compares your in-stock lines with other sellers of the same part in the same condition. Buyers usually contact the cheapest sellers first.
Buying, messages & deals
Buyers find your parts in search and on your company page and contact you through the site. You get an email for every new message, and you reply from Deals & Messages. You deal with the buyer directly; RecycleVAR does not sell items or hold payment.
Every conversation is a Deal Room: chat in your own language, send quotes, share photos and test reports, start a video call and mark the deal done.
Post what you want to buy (WTB) or sell (WTS). Members respond with offers; responders only see their own rank, and you can accept any offer at any time.
The RFQ Desk: paste the list, compare every member's offer per line, pick one, add your margin, send one RFQ per seller into a Deal Room and print a clean quote for your customer.
Watchlist tracks products and tells you about price drops. Alerts email you when parts you are looking for are listed.
Buyers see your company name, location and listings, plus a phone number only if you add one to your profile. Your email address is never shown.
Trading tools
Accept an offer on WTB / WTS, click Escrow and confirm quantity and price. Both sides agree with Escrow.com, the buyer pays Escrow.com, the seller ships only after the money is secured, and the seller is paid once the buyer accepts the goods. RecycleVAR charges nothing; Escrow.com charges its own fee. Never send payment anywhere except Escrow.com for an escrow deal.
Sell a whole lot in one go: item list, photos and your price. Members bid on the full lot; you accept the bid you like (any time, also after bidding ends) and a Deal Room opens with the buyer. No fees.
Live video sessions where members pitch what they want to buy and sell. RSVP, build a pitch list of up to 10 lines, join live (the room opens 10 minutes early) and close deals in the Deal Room afterwards. It runs on Jitsi Meet in your browser; times are US Central.
What buyers searched for and asked for on RecycleVAR in the last 30 days, and how many members list it. Use it to find parts buyers want that few sellers stock.
Analytics shows views and search appearances for your inventory and where buyer interest is.
Company profile & trust
Open Get Verified and send your business details and trade references. The badge shows next to your name on every listing, search result and RFQ response, and buyers contact verified sellers first.
Yes. A short phone video of your warehouse, test bench or stock and a few photos make your company page far more convincing.
A badge for your website, store or email signature that links to your RecycleVAR profile. It shows you trade on RecycleVAR; it is not a data-destruction or recycling certification.
Share your link. For every new company that signs up through it and verifies its email, you get 30 extra days of Professional.
