Idle equipment is budget you already own.
Rather than storing, writing off or scrapping equipment you have outgrown, TradeUp converts it into credit on your Christie purchase — with valuation, logistics and recovery managed for you by AVGear.
Reduce project cost
Trade-in value is applied as credit against your new Christie purchase, lowering net spend.
Expand your scope
Recovered value can fund a larger refresh, more displays, or the specification you actually wanted.
Clear the storeroom
Surplus and decommissioned gear leaves your site on a schedule that minimizes disruption.
Retire it responsibly
AVGear refurbishes, resells or recycles everything received, keeping working equipment in service.
Five steps from old equipment to new capability.
Christie and AVGear work together to make the trade-in process as seamless as possible. You share the details; we handle the rest.
Identify the upgrade
You or your Christie representative spot a project where a trade-in reduces cost.
Share your equipment list
Submit models, quantities, condition, photos and location through the form below.
Receive a valuation
AVGear evaluates the equipment against current market conditions, typically within 48–72 hours.
Apply the credit
Once accepted, the value is applied as credit on your account toward the new Christie purchase.
We collect the gear
AVGear coordinates pickup and manages the remainder of the process end to end.
Far more than projectors.
Christie products — projectors, LED and video processors — plus most categories of professional AV equipment and accessories, whatever the brand.
