Verified purchaseThis is my 5th purchase with backmarket and I have been impressed every turn. The switch came with everything I could have needed including the wrist clips for the joycons. I waited to review until I’d had time to see the hard/software for what it truly was being refurbished. Of course the body and controllers had a few noticeable scratches on them but it was all able to be polished up a bit. All in all another great purchase. Thank you backmarket for saving the tech!

Switch 32GB - GrayJennifer M.

Verified purchaseWe ordered a refurbished Switch console for my daughter and it came promptly and is in great condition, so we're very impressed there! The seller originally only included a generic USB to C power cable, without a plug. The cord and our home USB compatible plugs weren't strong enough to power the console, but thankfully we had a laptop charger which worked, so my daughter could play. I contacted Backmarket who contacted the seller and we received a new OEM charger within a couple days, so in the end, all is well, although we would have much preferred to receive a functioning charging cord with the original shipment.

Verified purchaseVery happy with my purchase! I was worried because the listing didn’t mention that the dock came with it and the support team got back to me in 24 hours with a guarantee that it would be included. I love buying refurbished items!

Switch OLED 64GB - WhiteNaomi T.

Verified purchaseEverything was great, like new, expet for the joy cons which are known to age poorly. The controlls are a little soft the the right hand one is a little loose when attached to the switch. I can clean them up with some isoporpal alcahol or get factory new joy con replacements elsewhere but still disappointed that I have to do some refurbishing myself when I got excellent quality.

Verified purchaseThis is the first time I've gotten a refurbished product that definitely works like it's brand new! I was looking for something to start gaming and streaming (not professionally but I want to try) and it's been amazing in that and helping with game development as well. I got very fortunate that I happened to see this product just when I was about to give up the search. I highly recommend both this company and Back Market in general!

Dell Inspiron 5680 Core i7-8700 3.1 GHz - SSD 512 GB - 16GBBrendan a. M.

Verified purchaseRefurbished ought to mean that the unit was factory reset. But my PS5 arrived with the accessibility features turned on, and an existing user account and Wi-Fi network saved in memory. That's not refurbished, folks. That's straight used. Factory resets matter. Come on. The unit is great, like new, and runs cool. But whatever advantage BackMarket offers over eBAY was not existent in this transaction. And wasn't this PS5r supposed to include a controller? No? Well, it didn't.

PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition 1000GB - WhiteJames H.

Verified purchaseMy shopping on Back Market was good, but not perfect. I bought 2 used Nintendo Switch sets, saving 1/3 off the price of new ones. The information provided was accurate. They appeared to be in good condition, but one was missing the charger, so I had to spend an extra $20. They were both anonymous gifts to charity, so I did not test them.

Verified purchaseBought a switch off of BM to play Mario kart w friends and family. It arrived looking pretty much new. Works perfect. I’ll continue to use BM forever. I have bought several IPhones and and other Joycons from BM. I refuse to buy brand new, or used that have not been refurbed.

Verified purchaseI've had the Switch OLED for about 2 weeks now and so far it's been great. Arrived 2 days before it was supposed to. Even without the original box, everything was packed nice and tight. Haven't had any issues with game play, connections, or the controllers. It was listed in Fair condition, but I would put it as Good. Aside from some wear marks near the charging port and two very very small chips in the screen (I can feel them but they're not noticeable in game play), this thing is 10/10.
