Back To The Future

What Is Buy-Back?

How Does Buy-Back Work?

Summer 2021, Trainspotters launched Depot – an online store selling End-of-Lines, Seconds and Buy-Back items.

“We are particularly happy to shout about the Buy-Back offering which supports a more circular economy, ensuring old lights stay out of landfill and are given a new lease of life for the projects of the future”

Jesse Carrington, Director

We will buy back ex-Trainspotters lights that are re-sellable and a minimum of 12 months old (from original date of purchase)
We will value the lights taking into consideration any re-conditioning, re-certification & re-listing required, and make you an offer
We will credit you to the value of our offer, which you can use for an immediate purchase, or a purchase within the next 12 months
