Trade In Your Accordion
The Accordion Shop accepts part exchange against any new or pre-owned instrument in our stock. If you're upgrading, we'll value your current accordion and offset it against the one you're buying. We can usually give rough idea of value on modern accordions from photographs and a description if you can't get to our Sunningdale showroom, and we can arrange courier collection once terms are agreed.
How Part Exchange Works
Tell us what you have
Send us the details and photographs listed below, or bring the accordion in.
We value it
The most accurate valuation always comes from seeing and playing the instrument, but we can often give a rough value of modern accordions remotely.
Choose your new instrument
Your part exchange figure comes off the price. You're welcome to try anything in the showroom before deciding.
We collect, or you bring it
If you're coming in, please contact us first so the right person is here. If you're not, we can arrange a courier to collect.
What We Accept in Part Exchange
We're interested in most modern and mid-century instruments in playable or repairable condition, particularly Italian and German makes, and quality student instruments.
We generally can't take pre-war accordions. Instruments from the 1920s and 1930s almost always need complete internal restoration costing more than the finished instrument would be worth, and there's very little market for them. If you've inherited an accordion of that age, our guide explains what your options are.
