Selling old sports gear online can sometimes feel like a sport in itself—and not necessarily an enjoyable one. From endless “HM po?” comments and extreme lowball offers to the frustration of being ghosted by buyers on online marketplaces, getting rid of an old bike, camping tent, or other equipment can be a tiring experience for many Filipinos.
Offering a more seamless, secure, and rewarding alternative, Decathlon is holding Buyback Week from August 9 to 15, 2026. During the week-long event at participating stores nationwide, customers can bring their pre-loved Decathlon equipment directly to participating branches and exchange them for Decathlon vouchers.
Participating locations—including flagship stores such as Decathlon Pasig (Tiendesitas), Decathlon Alabang, and Decathlon North EDSA—will have dedicated Circular Economy teams ready to evaluate customers’ gear, making it an easy way to refresh sporting equipment ahead of the next adventure.
Seamless Experience: Say Goodbye to Marketplace Hassles
Unlike public listing platforms, where sellers have to take multiple photos, write product descriptions, negotiate with buyers, and arrange potentially inconvenient or risky meetups with strangers, Decathlon’s Buyback process takes just three simple steps:
1. Get an Estimate: Visit the website and use the online assessment tool to receive an initial estimate of your item’s value.
2. Bring It In-Store: Take your equipment to any participating Decathlon branch during Buyback Week.
3. Claim Your Voucher: After an expert teammate completes and validates the physical inspection, customers can immediately receive their Decathlon gift card.
Instant, Guaranteed Value for Your Next Adventure
Instead of waiting days or weeks for an online buyer to complete a transaction, customers receive the agreed value of their gear directly on a Decathlon Gift Card as soon as the in-store evaluation is completed.
The voucher provides immediate and guaranteed store credit that can be used toward the next sporting goal. Whether customers want to upgrade their mountain bike, shift from home workouts to outdoor camping, or replenish their family’s activewear collection, the program offers a convenient way to put the value of old gear toward their next adventure.
Giving Sports Products a Second Life
Beyond convenience, Decathlon Buyback is anchored in a broader environmental mission: protecting the playground where people play and explore.
Every piece of equipment traded in through Decathlon enters its “Second Life” program. The Circular Economy team refurbishes the gear to ensure it meets safety and quality standards before putting it back on sale at a reduced price for another sports enthusiast to enjoy.
By choosing to trade in rather than throw away, Filipino consumers can actively contribute to the circular economy. The program helps extend the life of quality sporting products, reduce landfill waste, and minimize the carbon emissions associated with manufacturing new equipment from scratch.
