    Came in great condition (i ordered the 'excellent') and seem to be authentic Airpods. It wasn't that much cheaper than brand new Airpods 3rd Gens, but i appreciate buying something that's refurbished rather than new electronics. thanks!

    I purchased “Excellent”. Arrived earlier than expected. Came fully packaged in apple box with no scratches or sign of being used or refurbished. The sound quality is great. I was worried it would be too big and fall out my ears but they fit perfectly in my ears and remain comfortable even during extended use. battery life is pretty outstanding. Overall this purchase was a win win and it is worth your money.

    The Quality you receive for a refurbished airpods is pretty good as expected the only worry i have is the actual apple box itself looks like it when through some water damage but I tested the airpods and they seem to be great.

    I really like them. They are comfortable, the sound is high quality (I’m no expert though), and they’re in top condition. I wouldn’t have paid full price for these straight from Apple, so I love that I got them refurbished. I’ve also bought many other products from BackMarket- 2 Switches, 2 iPads, an Apple Watch, and an iPhone. I’ve always had great experiences.

    I bought this 3rd generation AirPods for $95, and overall, they're pretty good. The sound quality is smooth, and the transitions are great. However, I have some doubts about the authenticity due to some irrelevant writing on the case. Even though it's refurbished, I expected the case to match the original. Despite that, they work really well, so I believe they’re genuine.

    Really good even with the lower rating of refurbishment, didn’t look like they were used at all. My only personal gripe is i’m not the biggest fan of the non-silicone tips, but that’s just choice of airpod, otherwise great product.

    I’ve purchased an iPhone 12 and these AirPods from this website, along with saving money I also feel better about buying refurbished. Both arrived with minor/ no scratches. They also both arrived earlier than they were scheduled to.

    Fantastic purchase. These came in the original packaging & were in perfect condition. You would never even know they were refurbished. The shipping is also incredibly fast. I can't recommend back market enough.

    I’m thrilled with my purchase of a refurbished 1st Generation AirPods Pro from Back Market! The product exceeded my expectations, and I’m not only enjoying the fantastic sound quality but also appreciating the environmental impact of choosing refurbished tech. It feels great to contribute to sustainability while getting top-notch products. It’s worth noting that all of my Apple devices, including my beloved AirPods Pro, are from Back Market. Their commitment to quality refurbishment has made me a loyal customer. Kudos to Back Market for not only delivering on performance but also for championing a greener approach to tech consumption. Highly recommend! 🌍🔧🍏

Benefits of buying refurbished AirPods


At Back Market, customers can save up to 70% off compared to the price of new on certified refurbished AirPods. The best part is, you don't have to sacrifice performance quality in order to save money; all refurbished devices on our marketplace have been fully reconditioned, cleaned, inspected, and tested to the same standards as a new one. This is the biggest difference between buying a used or pre-owned AirPods compared to a refurbished one.

Buying a renewed AirPods is also a much friendlier environmental option. Refurbished AirPods are often second-hand devices that have been restored and updated to meet the manufacturer's standards, which means you'll be helping to keep used AirPods out of our landfills, reduce electronic waste, and minimize your carbon footprint.

Best place to buy a refurbished Apple AirPods


You'll find the biggest selection, highest product quality and lowest prices on restored AirPods at Back Market. That's because we specialize specifically in refurbished tech and take the time to carefully vet every seller on our marketplace to ensure customers are getting reliable devices that perform like-new.

Staying true to our brand, we're also a huge advocate for environmental change. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we hit a milestone for preventing 1 million tons of carbon emission (CO2e) from entering the atmosphere. You can help contribute to a better circular economy when you shop AirPod deals on our platform.

Buying refurbished is a no-brainer - now you just have to figure out which AirPods model to buy.

AirPods warranty and return policy


All AirPods purchases on Back Market come with free standard shipping, a 1-year warranty, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. We want to make sure you can shop with confidence and find the best AirPods for your needs at lower prices.

What to expect when buying refurbished AirPods


If you're a first-time refurbished buyer, you might not be sure what to expect from your purchase. First, understand that your AirPods may have external cosmetic flaws depending on the condition you choose (Back Market offers devices of Fair, Good, and Excellent quality). However, whatever the condition, any external blemishes will not affect the performance of your AirPods, and you can expect your device to perform as if it were newly opened directly from the Apple Store. You should also be confident that your AirPods are backed by a 1-year warranty, meaning in the rare case that any defects arise (outside of accidental damage) within 12 months of your delivery date, then you're entitled to your choice of a repair, replacement or reimbursement.


AirPods Trade In


If you already have a pair of AirPods that you're looking to replace, consider trading it into Back Market to give you a little extra budget for your next headphone upgrade. We make the process simple for you and we'll give you a free online quote when you answer a few easy questions about your current AirPods.
