How It Works

Submit. Get Credit. Upgrade.

Step 1
Submit Your Gear

Fill out the trade form below or call 888.653.1184. Describe what you have, its condition, and whether you want credit or cash.

Step 2
Get Your Offer

A VK gear specialist reviews your submission and responds within 1 business day with a fair market offer in writing. No obligation to accept.

Step 3
Trade Up or Cash Out

Accept your offer and choose: same-day trade credit toward any VK purchase, or cash via check, wire transfer, or PayPal.

Pro Tip

Apply trade credit as a down payment, finance the remainder at 0%, then deduct the full purchase under Section 179. First-year out-of-pocket on a major upgrade can approach $0.
