PRIVACY

Your list stays on
the desk that bid it.

BOMcycle is a principal buyer of surplus, obsolete and EOL electronic components. We collect what a buyer needs to price a line and pay a wire — not a marketing file, not a broker blast list.

Last updated 24 August 2026

01

What actually arrives with a surplus list

A typical file has manufacturer part numbers, brand, quantity, date code, packaging (reel, tray, tube, box) and a note on whether the stock is factory-sealed or open. Photos come with open trays, mixed reels, or any line without a factory label. We also take the company name, a contact person, and — once a bid is accepted — the beneficiary name for the T/T.

If the BOM is customer- or project-named, send an NDA to inventory@bomcycle.com first. After it is signed we only need MPN, qty and condition. We do not need the end-customer name to bid a clean unused lot.

02

Deal IDs, not a shared inbox

Intake assigns a deal ID in the BC-year-number form (for example BC-2026-0841) and parks the file with one buyer. The list does not sit in a round-robin mailbox. Quotes, live bids, shipping and payment on that ID go to buyback@bomcycle.com. New inquiries and after-sales go to inventory@bomcycle.com. A first surplus list still belongs on Sell Your Inventory, so a deal ID is created before anyone prices a line.

03

We do not shop your file

We take title. We do not forward your spreadsheet to twenty other inboxes “to see who is interested.” Bid / No-bid / Hold is marked on our sheet. If a line is No-bid, that MPN is not a free sample for someone else’s book.

Receiving photographs carton labels, date codes and any variance against the packing list. Those photos stay with the deal ID. They are not used as stock photos, and they are not posted.

04

How long a file stays on the desk

A list that never became a bid is closed after the offer window (usually 7–10 days) plus a short hold in case you reply late. A deal that shipped is kept with the packing list, inspection note and wire record — that is the paper trail ISO 9001 and the dock actually use. We do not keep customer-named BOMs once the NDA file is done unless the deal is still open.

05

This website

The public pages (What We Buy, How It Works, About, Contact) do not require an account. The sell form asks for the same fields a buyer would ask in an email. We do not run a retargeting pixel and we do not sell site traffic. If the browser stores a session so the form does not dump your rows on refresh, that is for the form — not for ads.

06

Who to write

Privacy questions, NDA paper and anything that is not a live deal: inventory@bomcycle.com. A quote or an open BC- number: buyback@bomcycle.com, with the deal ID in the subject. We are in Shenzhen; desks run Monday–Friday, 09:00–18:00 HKT.
