Such A Deal
June 20, 2021

My wife wanted a newer phone but dreaded learning a "new" phone. Bought a refurb iPhone 8 and feel like we go a nice deal. Great communication and quick shipment. Happy wife, happy life! I would purchase from Black Market again without hesitation.

Amazed
June 18, 2021

I was purchased a phone that I thought was fair and was amazed how pristine the phone was when I received it. Thought Back Market made a mistake and sent me an upgraded phone. They sold me and I have since sent another customer

I've gotten two tablets via Back Market and plan to purchase an iPhone next. They are great about replying promptly if I contacted them for any reason. It doesn't feel risky when buying used electronics, because they back up their merchants. Overall a really good straightforward marketplace.

Highly recommend
June 16, 2021

I had to give this purchase a ton of thought not only because it was for one of my most precious grandchild's gift but because it was a big purchase to do online without actually holding the product in hand first. Let me tell you this was the absolute best purchase I ever made. PERIOD! This is authentic and as real as you can find. The phone I received is like brand new for less then a fifth of price of new item! I am making another huge purchase today from them and HIGHLY RECOMMEND EVERYONE CHECK THEM OUT! You will not be disappointed!

I was buying an Apple series 5 watch for my wife for Mother's Day. Yes, I had some problems. First, I paid extra for speedy delivery so it would arrive well before Mother's Day. The Watch didn't arrive until the day after. Then the watch charger wouldn't charge the watch. I really thought I'd just been taken to the cleaners by unethical scam company problems and I was screwed. THEN, I decided to go ahead and contact Black Market using their instructions for making contact. And WOW! I was immediately contacted with a very personal note of apology, immediate reimbursement for the speedy mailing charge and a phone number for a technician to help with the charger problem. The problem couldn't be fixed and I was instructed to return the watch for full refund and I ordered and immediately received another watch that is absolutely perfect. The guys and gals at Black Market are the real deal! Personal, caring service and genuine effort to be sure you are satisfied with the product you purchase. I've always been a bit of a skeptic, but this company is one of the best I've ever worked with. Thank you Black Market.

Purchased a refurbished Apple Watch 3 and was impressed with the way this company kept me updated on my order status. Watch arrived looking brand new, packaged very well. I'm extremely happy with this purchase and will definitely check them out next time I'm in the market for something. Have bought refurbished Apple products in the past and have been very pleased with them.

Very happy customer
June 10, 2021

A friend told me about backmarket as an option for a refurbished phone. I purchased a Samsung Galaxy S20 in "good" condition. This phone was 600 less then if I had purchased it new. Phone was in great condition, came a day earlier, customer service was great. I had an issue with software update continuing to show up and I was walked through the process of getting it resolved. Very happy, I recommend to others and will purchase again.

I was skeptical/nervous about buying used from a site I'd barely heard of, but my transaction was easy and quick, and the phone arrived in BETTER condition than promised. I'd definitely use it again.

Lovely customer service
June 9, 2021

Found a like-new Apple watch for a great price. As a new Apple watch user, I had questions about setup and operation and Back Market's customer service was so helpful. I referred others who have also purchased because the online shopping experience is on par.

I was looking to upgrade my boyfriend and my phones when he came across this site and had me take a look. We have prepaid month to month plans and never finance phones. This has left us with purchasing lower to middle grade phones in the past. We are a Samsung family, and purchased and returned 2 of the new A series due to too many glitches and the Bluetooth dropping in my car constantly! Going with a refurbished phone allowed us to upgrade to a nicer model then originally thought. We bought 2 Samsung S10s, preferred for the head jack, which were in Good condition. We were unable to find a scratch anywhere on the phones. Have had them for almost a month and a half and have had no issues. Phones work great. I will definitely look for refurbished tech prior to buying new again as it gives us the higher quality with a lower price. Thanks Back Market!

I hesitated on purchasing a refurbished phone for a few weeks after I finally decided I needed a new phone. I have never had a refurb before. After a lot of research, I finally decided I would purchase one from Back Market. I also decided I bought an iphone 8 plus 64gb. It arrived the next day! I was amazed on how well it was packaged! The phone is in amazing shape looks like new, not a mark on it, way better than I expected! Battery life at 100% I ended up purchasing a second phone for my wife the same day, can't wait till that one gets here! I am now a loyal repeat customer. I'm so Happy!
