I have always had the same concept to recycle stuff that may be useless to one but very useful to others who needed it and it doesn't need to be new. That's the whole concept. Well, I just found one place to go if I need it.

No service
May 26, 2022

I placed an order on April 23rd for a cell phone. Received email stating that order was received. Never received another email stating it was shipped. Contacted Back market and they said that my order had been canceled with no explanation as to why. My credit card showed order paid.
BAD BUSiNESS! Could at least told me that my order was canceled and reason.
Will never order from here again!
Unhappy Customer!

A great experience
April 28, 2022

I, like so many others, was hesitant to buy a refurbished laptop. With some encouragement from my daughter and a bit of research I found Back Market. Their site was easy to use, understand and to order from. The order was made, the laptop arrived and the followup has been wonderful. I jumped right into using my new to me laptop and have had no problems at all. I highly recommend them.

Apple TV

Perfect in every possible way! Getting it for free at the instance that I placed the order would have been the only upgrade. Fortunately, I live in the real world. Thank you for your excellent service.

Don't Do It!
April 26, 2022

If you are waiting on trying this online shopping DONT DO IT! Don't wait! If you're hesitant about making a decision DONT DO IT! Go for it! Worries about quality and price? DONT DO IT! No worries here! After taking my iPad in to my local service center for a second time, my technician said there was nothing else he could do. My iPad was not going to be able to be fixed again. He actually recommended BACK MARKET to me. Said he would not ever buy at retailers only at Back Market. So, I gave it a try. Great product with excellent quality and awesome prices. Stellar customer service! I will make more purchases here in the future

One of the best experiences ever ordering online. Ordered the product one afternoon and it was delivered to my door step the next afternoon, Back Market did an excellent job keeping me informed of my order (from the time I placed it thru delivery). The product, a refurbished Dell computer started right up and has performed great. It is so good to do business with a company like Back Market who is so customer oriented,

Excellent iPhone XR
April 24, 2022

The iPhone I purchased on back market was in excellent condition and looked like new one. It checked out all the features. Also, excellent communication from Greg at back market as well as from the seller. I would certainly buy again from here and would recommend family and friends too.

Cheap, Fast, and Easy!
April 20, 2022

I saved hundreds of dollars by buying refurbished from Backmarket. They have a huge selection, and they ship quickly. I've bought 2 phones from them now, and plan to buy more stuff!

From the business

Freeing the planet from electronic waste, leading the shift towards a circular economy, and building a global billion-dollar tech company are three solid reasons to wake up in the morning. Founded six years ago in Paris, Back Market is the world's first online marketplace dedicated to refurbished consumer electronics. Back Market connects the best sellers of refurbished consumer electronics with consumers looking for a more affordable, reliable, and environmentally-friendly alternative to buying new.
