This 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!

Everything 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.

My 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.

I'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.

The description didn’t say anything about what exactly was included. You get a switch, left and right joycons, the controller that you slot the joycons on, the little slides you put on the joycons to use them separately, a dock, a power adapter for the dock, and a USB-A to USB-C cable. My accessories came in pristine condition, with some still in the packaging. The switch and joycons, however, were a little worse for wear. The joysticks in the controllers are loose and rattle around, and the left joycon waggles forwards and backwards when slotted on the switch. I was a little surprised when both controllers worked fine when I started playing games. The switch itself came with a heavily scratched screen, both scratches all over the place and scratches from where the dock rubs against the screen. The screen itself has no defects and there are no dead zones in the digitizer. The buttons on the switch, the USB-C port, the game card reader and the SD card reader all work. There are also scratches all over the switch body, and one corner was chipped off, which didn’t really affect usability. I’m not unhappy with what I received, because I understand that the construction and typical u...

“Scared and afraid using “primarily overdone” refurbished intentions; for now, though, I am comfortable. In there are fears for such ideas, I have itches of breaking and undone situations for the items previously set forth through ordering.”

One of the panels of the consoles was not attached upon arrival. The inside of the panel had some gross brown residue on it. i cleaned it off and reattached it. Also some scratches on controller and console. Overall, it’s fine. But the ease of removing the panel makes me wonder why it wasn’t wiped off, if it’s truly refurbished and not just used and resold.

Console works great. I’ve had very few issues and ported games from other consoles run on it pretty well too. From how much it cost in comparison to the performance of the console (not even accounting for the environmental benefit from buying refurbished products) it’s just an overall great product.

Techline was the refurbisher that provided my PS4 controller. I purchased a PS4 Pro through Back Market from another refurbisher that came with one controller already but wanted another for some local co-op. The order took a little longer to get to me than I had anticipated. When I opened up the box it arrived in, the controller inside was packaged nicely with bubble wrap and showed minimal signs of wear and tear. It would've been nice if the seller had included a micro USB charging cable as a courtesy. So now I have to order one. Would buy again though. Thanks!

Absolutely thrilled with my purchase from Back Market! I recently bought a PS5 from their site, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the seamless ordering process to the timely delivery, everything was top-notch. The PS5 arrived in pristine condition, just as described. It was securely packaged, and setting it up was a breeze. The performance of the console is phenomenal – lightning-fast load times, stunning graphics, and an array of amazing games. It's everything I hoped for and more! What sets Back Market apart is their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Their communication was excellent, keeping me updated every step of the way. Plus, their eco-friendly approach to refurbishing electronics makes me feel good about my purchase. If you're in the market for high-quality, reliable electronics, look no further than Back Market. They exceeded my expectations, and now I can enjoy endless hours of gaming on my PS5. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
