HOW THE ATLAS PACKS TRADE-IN PROGRAM WORKS
The process is super simple. Send us some photos of your pack. We review and issue a credit based on the trade-in formula described below.
If you choose to accept the offer, we'll provide a prepaid return label for your current pack and generate a payable link for your new pack with the credit included in advance.
Pay for your new pack. Prep, box and ship your old pack. Be sure to let us know once it's on the way and we'll ship out your new pack right away.
That's it!

WHEN WILL I GET MY NEW PACK?
Your new pack will ship out based on the shipping method you select at checkout and your old pack must have a confirmed tracking number.
As soon as you drop-off your old pack let us know so we can ship out your new pack.
GEN1 vs. GEN2 HOW TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE?
Telling the difference is easy. Just look at the ATLAS logo on the front.
If the logo is very big and easy to read, then you have a GEN1 pack. If the logo smaller and tonal making it harder to see, you have a GEN2 pack.
FYI: GEN1 packs were sold prior to 2021. GEN2 packs have been sold since 2022.
I WANT TO TRADE AND LIVE OUTSIDE THE USA. CAN I?
Yes, you can still do a trade-in. There will just be some additional costs for shipping. Please inquire via chat.
CAN I TRADE-IN AGAIN AND AGAIN?
Yes. You can trade-in the pack you are getting for another trade-in credit on a new pack. The cycle can repeat and repeat and will not dilute out.
Said another way, when chose to trade-in your next pack, the original purchase price is based on the full price, not the price you pay which includes the trade-in credit.
WHAT IF I DIDN'T BUY DIRECT FROM ATLASPACKS.COM?
Packs purchased directly from Atlas Packs (via site or events) will receive back more in trade when compared to packs purchased from third party sites or retailers and can be traded-in at anytime.
Packs purchased from third party sites, retailers or second hand, will receive back 75% of the original purchase price and must be in good to great condition to be eligible for trade.
CAN I TRADE IN PARTS AND ADD-ONS?
At this time only packs can be traded-in for credit on a new pack. If you purchased any parts or accessories they have no trade-in value. This policy may change over time.
I GOT A DISCOUNT, DEAL, REFUND, OR PAID EXTRA FOR SHIPPING, DUTY, PARTS, ETC., HOW DOES THIS COUNT?
It does not. Only packs are accepted for trade-in credit and the purchase price will include any discount, credits, refunds and exclude all other costs or charges related to taxes, duties, shipping, parts, accessories or other. If you have any questions regarding this or other policy please contact via chat.
