We’ve recently welcomed musicMagpie to the AO family, a company that shares our passion for putting customers first, caring about colleagues and making a real difference. Together, we’re set to make an even bigger difference and with that comes exciting opportunities to shape the future of sustainable tech.

A Bit About Us
At musicMagpie, we make it easy, affordable and sustainable for people to buy, sell, and rent tech and media products.
As a pioneer in the circular economy, we’ve built a trusted platform through our brands, musicMagpie in the UK and Decluttr in the US, using our circular model of recycling, refurbishing, reselling and renting products to give tech a second life and help to reduce e-waste on a massive scale. Our environmental and social focus is demonstrated by our ‘Smart for you… Smart for the planet’ ethos.
And the impact? In 2022 alone, our UK consumer tech and disc media customers and trade partners helped to save over 43,000 tonnes of CO2 by buying, selling and renting with us - that’s equivalent to powering over 50,000 flights from London to New York or heating over 16,000 homes!
Over 9 million customers have used our award-winning service, and we’ve paid out hundreds of millions for their unwanted technology, reselling over 400,000 tech items a year. We’re also the largest seller on Amazon and eBay, by number of seller reviews, and our excellent Trustpilot rating (with over 310,000 reviews!) shows just how much people trust us.
