Abstract: Abstract Aihuishou is the biggest digital device recycling and exchange company in China. It has full coverage of the secondhand value chain, dealing with more than 10 million used smartphones and laptops every year. Unlike other recycling firms, AHS not only collects and holds inventory, but also develops its own testing, grading and exchange platform that has redefined how value is created in the secondhand industry. All participants can easily sell or bid for secondhand devices at the best price on the platform. The platform applies algorithms and robotic testing facilities to ease such transaction process.
