Great Buying Experience
May 20, 2022

Back Market provided me with a wonderful shopping and purchasing experience! Their customer service is excellent. I had on small issue with my purchase, but they responded to me in less than 8 hours, offering to immediately refund me or replace the item. I requested a partial refund, and that was received in less than 5 minutes.

Rest assured that I WILL use them again for my electronics needs!

I've ordered a few monitors and other refurbished electronics from back market and had one issue which was quickly remedied. Great company trying to keep electronic waste out of landfills, and getting us good deals while doing it.

The seller I chose on Back Market exceeded my expectations. I bought a MacBook (2017) for my son, but didn't pay a lot for Fair condition; however, it came in Good condition with a cover that covers the MacBook. I thought this was a nice touch to the product. My son says that it's better than he would've expected for a refurbished MacBook. I was skeptical at first, but I was able to find a seller with more than 4.5 stars. I recommend that if you're considering buying from them, check the reviews of the individual seller. I saw a lot that had reviews of 4.5, yet I wanted a seller that had almost a 5-star rating. I was able to find a seller with a 4.8 rating. I'll be ordering from them again!

Refund

I bought 2 iPads. I returned one iPad I bought. Followed the instruction that was given to me. It's been 3 months and still have not heard from them. I emailed them at least 2x since I returned the iPad. Not buying again.

Refused to live up to commitment
June 9, 2022

Ordered device from associated seller on Sat, 30 April, specifying and paying for 'Express shipping from $30.00 in 48 hours with FedEx - 2Days'. Device was shipped on Mon, 2 May. Did not arrive until Thur, 5 May - well past delivery deadline. Seller claims that since FedEx won't honor their 2-day commitment to them, they won't honor theirs to me. Seller refuses to refund $30 fee for 'expedited delivery' that didn't happen. Contacted Back Market Customer Service to intervene, citing their own commitment, "Our customer care team always has your back They closely monitor customer complaints, and intervene to resolve disputes, when necessary." They responded by claiming that the shipment had actually arrived on time, and refuse to resolve the issue. I am totally disgusted and will never do business with them again.

Deux commandes perdues. Les bons prix vous font réver mais... c'est juste du rève.
C'est triste de prétendre vouloir faire le bien en recyclant pour arnaquer ceux qui veulent vraiment recycler.

Quick Fast and EASY
May 8, 2022

This company is awesome. Student discount and completely as advertised. Buying refurbished can be scary. BackMarket is not. Totally Safe and they commit to the
Warranty. I paid for one and they have helped me even if it wasn't really something they were required to. I've bought 3 big ticket items and I have been satisfied every single time.

I got a phone in fair condition and it came with no scratches or marks. It was half the retail price but just as good. I definitely recommend buying electronics from here because their sellers are verified and customer service is really helpful.

Bought a Google pixel 6 that was broken upon delivery. The phone was only rapped in one layer of bubble rap when it came in the mail so no wonder it was broken. I am now in the process of trying to get the phone returned but the company website keeps freezing when I go to submit a claim. I really regret using Back Market.
