@@chrishastings_32 just by the way, if you want someone to answer comments on yt, its best to comment as a new comment, cause for some reason replies to comments don't show up in studio app. I almost missed this. Yeah, I do recommend buying from them, there's no guarantee of a geed experience, but for the most part i've been happy. Good idea to read the reviews of the individual seller you are buying from before purchasing....
I bought 11 pro max in fair condition few days ago. It came early and was absolutely pristine, what many people forget is that back market does not actually sell anything. They are a marketplace for other companies to sell their product on. When you find a phone / item you like check who is the refurbisher and check their reviews separately. If reviews are good there is no need to overpay for perfect condition.
I'm glad to hear that, I hope you enjoy it! Well said, I tried to mention that in the vid, but didn't want to dwell on it too much because I didn't want to bore all the people who know exactly what backmarket is, already.
Have ordered from them 3 times all phones looked new came with chargers and they all are still working just fine. Never had any issues. Completely satisfied with their business
I've had several transactions with Back Market. I've bought 4 phones and a couple of headsets. I've made 2 returns, 1 return simply because I didn't like the device, my fault for not doing the research ahead of time. Both returns went very smoothly. As for the other transactions, I've gotten some really nice devices at great prices! I regularly recommend them to people.
I think shops like Backmarket should allow you to check a box that asks you to whether you want a charging cable or not. Because while I know some people don't have the necessary cables for their phone/tablet/etc, many people have so many friggen cords. So maybe an "Opt-In" box would be nice
That's a good idea, I feel an option for a charging adaptor, case and even usb/lightning to audio jack adaptor options wouldn't go amiss either. I know they are not exactly standard with higher end phones, but it's such a pleasure when you buy a phone and boom, you've also got a case.
@@whizzard The air is fine, it really depends on how you edit though, if you edit in full hd you'll have no problems, even 4k, it works fine as long as there's not too many effects
If I could give minus five stars I would. Product came without the rubber feet on the laptop. A simple request to get fixed was lost in a broken email server, then the 7 days past and backmarket refused to help me. This is the second terrible experience that I've had. If you're considering buying asurion insurance don't, they will also take advantage of you not honor their terms and conditions that you read that are included for replacement repair or refund. This entire organization is not to be trusted.
Its definitely based off the seller imo. I got a refurbished m1 ipad pro yesterday and it is way past my expectations and there are a few dents on the back and scratches on the edges but i aint complaining
I ordered a samsung z fold 3 from back market in March 2022 and my experience was great. Came is excellent condition and it's works great. I don't quite remember but I think it did come with a samsung charging cable but no charging brick. I actually ordered a couple things from back market never had a bad experience.
You are most welcome! I'm very glad to hear it was useful... I made another video more recently with tips to save when buying from them, you may find it of interest... And let me know how it goes, if you do buy from them.
From the moment I saw the very first BackMarket ad years ago it struck me as a terrible idea just on the face of it. In my book, unless the *battery* is replaced, the device is not meaningfully "refurbished". The value of the most mind-blowingly awesome second-hand gadget in the world is undercut by the simple fact of its lifespan being tied the (unswappable) battery, which is subject to diminishing cell capacity and eventual death.
In 2021 or 2022, some kind person removed my iPod Shuffle from my coat pocket in the cloakroom at work. This distressed me a lot, but I was absolutely devastated when I went online in order to purchase a replacement, only to be informed that Apple had stopped making them and that therefore this would be impossible. This is what led me to place an order with Back Market for what purported to be the same device. What was delivered was not an iPod and was not even made by Apple, though it had had a small Apple logo somehow superimposed onto it. Further, the quality of reproduction it gave was so appalling that it could never be used. The nearest comparison I could make would be that it sounded like on old 78 record played on a wind-up gramophone, but with a stylus which is hopelessly worn. I was really too upset to complain, so I just put it away and have never used it.
I'm sorry man, that's a real series of unfortunate events... Have you considered ebay? No warranties but you generally have pictures of the actual item you are ordering... I guess you probably don't need an ipod anymore in the era of smartphones 🤷♂️ but maybe just for nostalgia's sake...
@@askholland Hi! This would seem to be a very good idea, but the situation was really a little more complex than this. The work that I did made the risk very high of smashing or losing a smartphone but at the same time people at the job had to be able to reach you when they might not actually know where you are. For this reason I only carried an old school Nokia about with me during work. Thanks for bothering to suggest though.
My wife didn't know it was a reseller site and ordered me a phone . Let's just say it's an expensive paper weight. Backmarket is a scam or at minimum a mediator for scammers
I'm very very carefull about third parties on backmarket. I bought two note 9s but gave up when 2 months later both their internal hardware failed and went into complete shutdown and became bricks.
Good that you got a refund, but that's a shame. Thankfully I haven't had to return one, I imagine some of the refurbishers can be quite a pain to deal with, I'm a little surprised you had to go to them in the first place, i thought returns were through backmarket themselves?
Same experience! The first time I bought from them the phone arrived with a battery problem and there was no way I could return the product. so I have never gone back there.
I bought my first phone from Back Market and it is NOT the model I ordered! Now I'll see how the return process goes. Hopefully not too much of hassle but annoying since they didn't send me what I ordered. Ordered from Decluttr and they sent what I ordered. Don't think I'll be using Back Market again.
So I bought a phone from Back Market and Decluttr. Back Market sent the wrong model. BUT it was a relatively easy process to return it. Decluttr, on the other hand was a NIGHTMARE! Still ongoing.
Sorry to hear that, it's always a pain when they mess up, and you're the one who has to spend time fixing it... What went wrong with Decluttr? (I don't think we have them here in the UK so this is purely curiosity.)
I am missing part of my order and get no response from anyone. I probably will never order from back market again since their help center sends you to the same place over and over.
don't use backmarket unless you want to get ripped off, terrible service. You can't blame a customer if the item was sent that way and mind you I complained the very day I recieved it.
I’m so skeptical, I wanted to buy a 12 pro and my option was swappa becuase ik someone who bought from there but then I see ur video and checked black market out and they’re cheaper than I expected. I’m worried about 2 things, I pay and it comes in worse condition than I agreed or it takes too long or doesn’t arrive.
Thanks for watching. I think you can rely on Backmarket to step in if either of those becomes a problem. I don't really know about swappa... I need to look it up.
Thank you for the video! You have 5 followers now! Considering buying some tech from them, since the quality of these phones was not bad at all, can you share the sellers from which you order please?
Thanks for following! Yeah, the phones weren't too bad, I'd say my best experience (the s20 ultra) was from a seller called 'Uber Link Ltd.' Good luck, and let me know how it goes...
I had a very bad experience with this company and I don't trust them. They messed me about giving me wrong information. They then told me I need to send them a copy of my driving licence or passport before they would take payment from my card! Unbelievably bad customer service and I won't have anything more to do with them.
Omg me too! They took my money out of my account even though they said my order was canceled 😞 so I might have to file for fraud with my bank at this point cause seems they stole my money
Hi wizard I'm back With an update? The phone come through Galaxy cellular inc.. I had trouble with black market it took 3 weeks,, they explained the situation A $10 discount off the phone $5 discount off the store? the phone I purchase the note 10 + 5g It's excellent phone that's what I ordered, I'm really happy with the phone I must admit, I give them 3 and a 1/2 stars because they were late on the phone, it's in working perfect condition that's the end of the story,. anyway I'm happy with the phone thank you for your video I did receive it...
I'm glad to hear it worked out for you in the end, and that they gave you a little off... I think their refurbishers failing to fulfil orders is probably their largest fault... but, at least they seem to follow up in the end.
@@whizzard The phone is super nice they Text me several letters Really nice with there apologies I accepted that The phone worked out it is super nice I'm really happy with it thank you for your show keep up the good work thank youl...
Backmarket sent me a cracked phone with loose adhesive and when I tried sending it back for a return they sent it back saying it was not included in the warrenty.
I'm sorry to hear that, that's a real pain. I dunno where you are based, but there are consumer protections to help with that kind of thing here in the UK, normally writing an email quoting relevant protections is enough to get things sorted pronto... If there is something wrong with a Product in the 1st 30 days, the onus is almost always on the seller to prove it wasn't present at purchase...
that nice case will break your phone when you drop it it falls on front glass ,look for sellers that have been selling for a few years on backmarket,,back market sticks a $5 charge they also seem to charge seller $25 as i got 2 paypal charges,i have been happy with phones but dont order fair,i notice samsung have screen burn in so i just ordered new phone elsewhere,
I think I got scammed by them. Bought an excellent Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5g for 530. After only 2 weeks I noticed heavy brightness differences starting, then one morning, a stress crack going from the right on/off button towards the middle. no drop or bent or anything. they refused warrenty with the reason "cracked display" and offered me to sell it to them again. now, 2 months in, I have it back, the crack is now curving downwards, growing. and the display gets greener daily. I am now back on my note 8 and the "new" one is back in the box. I also tested the display: it is in fact not 120hz, but only 60. I also think the camera is a cheap fake since it has heavy problems with any focus. Any ideas?
Sorry this got caught by RUclipss filter for some reason. That's awful, I don't really have anything to say to help, maybe someone else can weigh in... You know what, if you can figure out if it is actually a non original display that should force backmarket to accept it... I don't know what consumer protections are like where you are, but if you have been sold something other than what was advertised there may well be something that can be done.
Always buy the accidental drop and spill insurance they offer for $25 for 13 months or $35 for 24 months. So worth it . Yes you still have to pay like a $50 fee to repair your phone but at least you aren't' out hundreds or more and can relax knowing you are covered.
@@youaregoingtolovethis which wouldnt have fixed the fake 60hz display, the discolouration nor the sketchy battery. I have an original Samsung display and battery now. Sidenote: In addition to all that: Phone turned out to be an american model, traded and repaired in France and then sold to Germany. So who knows what else is up here...and again...it was never dropped, banged nor was it bent. you can litterally feel the difference with the original glas now.
@@youaregoingtolovethisnot true, I'm here after my phone went black screen. I got the 13 month warranty and they said my LCD was damaged and refused to fix it. Never dropped or exposed to water
If the price is similar could be worth it... Really just depends how much the aesthetic condition matters to you. All three phones I received were 'fair' and ranged from excellent to fine for the price...
@@whizzard it overheats like it's going to explode straight out of the box and it glitched constantly it's touch is too sensitive so much so that I gave up playing games all together, it's a truly terrible phone I was surprised when I saw the 7pro get such good reviews compared to it and I really wanted to try to get it but the 6pro was so bad I am afraid to try the 7pro 😭
That's a shame... I'm sorry to hear that, I've been debating buying a pc to review for a while... Could be interesting... whether t turns out to be problematic or not...
I bought the Google pixel 4a in excellent Condition. However the battery capacity is the 69 % and barely lasts for 6 hrs. I already email back market and the seller but no replies
hello there, i discovered backmarket a couple of days ago..and im really considering try this out but..im kind of ''afraid'' about any scam posibility or smth like this. I wanna move from my old iphone 6s to an iphone 11 pro just because i wanna get a more latest kind of iphone but with a small inches screen. could you give any tip/info if its worth ''take the risk'', because as i already checked dont have as payment option ''pay on delivery'' just by using card or paypal. thanks in advance!
Hi, I don't think there is really any worry of scam, if you are not happy with the phone you can always return it for 30 days I believe. And if there is anything wrong with it, it is covered by their 1 yr. warranty. If small size is most important to you, have you considered the iPhone 12 mini? Probably less powerful than the 11 pro, but smaller and newer...
@@whizzard well sorry if my question was miss understooding...but what i wanted to express is my thinkings about site and company scam without even exist..so using 1 year warranty isnt meaning much ..i dont maybe am far too suspicious..also i kind of pick iphone 10 pro instead of 12 mini just because of the battery like 1k+ mah difference
Fair, but I think they are probably OK, as they have been around since 2014, and my experience with them was overall good. You can look them up on the website 'trustpilot' for others' reviews.
Hi I need some help- I ordered a phone last week on back market and they emailed me saying my order was canceled or rejected. But they still got my money out of my account. I'm getting very concerned that they stole my money 😢
just made my first order. iphone 13mini 128gb in fair condition for $301 out the door. including $20 discount for using app. I will let you know how it goes.
0:55 and prayers 😂 I just ordered an s22 Ultra from back market. Prayers indeed 👃I know it's a year later, and things might be different now, or not 😬. I guess we'll see. Thanks for the research. I'll report back if or when my shipment comes.
@whizzard yeah, it came with att carrier apps, I just stuck a tmobile Sim card in it, and it prompted me to reboot the phone so it could uninstall the att apps and install the tmobile ones. No unlock code or anything. It came in very nice condition. Only a couple scratches near the charging port. Got the excellent condition one. Very happy with it.
@@heli0s2003 OK, thanks!, i'm very pleased to hear that, i hate when people watch my video, buy from them and have a a bad experience... i've had a few people let me know 🤣
I'm in Portugal and considering using BackMarket to buy a Samsung Z Fold 2. I can't find better prices anywhere else. I'm very reluctant as this is a FOLDING device. So many things that can go wrong.
i'm actually working on a video about a refurbished fold currently, which may reassure you a little... but as we both know, there is always the potential for something to go wrong. Personally i'd recommend a higher condition than i would for a non folding phone... either way let me know how it goes!
I ended up opting out of buying one as it's too much of a risk, unfortunately.@@whizzard Thank you very much for your concern, best of luck with the channel!
Ive ordered a nintendo 3ds and still its been like 3d it was supposed to be delivered on 26th may and still hasn't, it's currently in "the netherlands" and not in sweden yet also the location tracking site used for the product is called "La Poste", it is being shipped from france, i put extra money for 2d delivery, what do you think about this?
That's annoying, which version of backmarket are you buying from? And has it come yet? I wonder if there is some way to claim compensation from them for late delivery...
@@whizzard I think it was the French version of back market, I found the site by searching for a 3ds I wanted to buy. Something finally happened to it and it says that it will come today finally after waiting for too long, the ship tracking takes me to a French tracking site but yeah I'm a bit happier that something happened now, I dunno if there will be some way to get a bit of the money back for this late delivery.
I discovered that you couldn't ship from the US version out of the US so I had assumed the same was true of the European ones, guess I was wrong. Let me know if it arrives...
Welp, I cancelled the order and decided to want my money back since I never received the order and never got an update to the delivery location, last update was from June 1st that I would get a notification about it as soon as possible and still nothing. So days later, I just ended up just not wanting my thing anymore and bought it off in a better site, which was even closer to Sweden and not somewhere from France, which took so long
Back Market's web site doesn't tell you which version of windows you're going to get. I contacted help and they were no help. They told me to contact the seller. What good is a middleman who can't answer a basic question? I mean, imagine Best Buy telling you they don't know what version of windows is coming with the PC you just bought. THEN back Back Market wanted to know if I liked my experience with them. Imagine that! THEY want INFO from ME! Good grief -- how clueless they are.
I hear what you're saying...I have not bought things a few times because the details were lacking... But, despite that (and the way they present themselves) I think one should think of them as more akin to an 'Ebay', a very light handed middleman who don't handle the goods themselves (I'm not even sure if returns go through them)... If their prices were much higher than other refurbishers then I would expect better service, but as they're not for the most part, I'm willing g to cut them some slack here...
@@whizzard Back Market brags that they adhere to a "rigorous vetting process" and that they "work hand-in-hand with professional refurbishers"...but they can't tell me which version of windows comes with a machine? And let's get real here: I wrote code for 35 years -- it's a simple task to provide attributes in a database table, and they certainly could have allowed for a field that holds a value to indicate the OS version. My god, it's design & coding 101. Was there no user testing pre-implementation? It's pathetic. You're free to make excuses for them, but I won't do so.
Well, I'm no expert on Iphones, but my best guess is the original battery may have been replaced with a generic battery.... I don't know if this is problematic beyond the points you have mentioned... Hopefully someone else can weigh in...
afaik yeah the battery must've been replaced and they opted for a 3rd party component meaning apple may refuse repairs (not sure if all or just battery) But that's pretty disappointing since there website claims they use all genuine apple parts, now im more apprehensive..
1st experience with back market was bad to worst ,bought a mac book ,never worked ,sent it back several times always came back badly fixed . Honestly backmarket is a SCAM
I am joined at the hip to Back Market. Have purchased 2 hi end Samsung phones from them. Both arrives rapidly and were in EXCELLENT condition . Love these guys! Just remember - Black Market doesNOT TECH the goodies, they resell. so whining about B.M and an unclean phone is rather unfair to B.M. R/e packing - TASCAM uses the same "shock absorbing sleeve" method to ship multi thousand dollar hi end recording devices ... never had issues there. the "sleeve" takes a great deal of the shock element out of shipping.
I purchased a 14pro good condition 98%battery health Im honestly impressed. Like shes so pretty like New im like the phone is a year old who had it they took well care of it :) Backmarket 🎉
thieves - I ordered a huawei p 50 pro - they never put it in the packaging (certified by dhl France and Greece) the mistake but they want my details - identity - RIB BANK ACCOUNT - copy of complaint to the police Only French banks have a RIB BANK ACCOUNT - I'm from Greece, so I don't have one!!! police copy - I have to pay extra money about 150+ for translation into French and for the drafting of the complaint by a lawyer - all this out of my own pocket and all this NOT TO GIVE MY MONEY BACK BUT TO START AN INVESTIGATION INTO WHAT HAPPENED For those who don't believe, I send them the evidence - if it was a serious company, they would sue me for defamation, but how dare they!!! they are frauds
back market is a real site and they ship your items to you but these items are replicated they don't use original parts. if you want extra proof get a real iphone vs a back market iphone and put the 2 phones on a regular call and look at the font sizes on the regular calls and compare the 2 phone. Not only that when you facetime someone they don't use the regular layout and these go for all phones sold on this site it's a scam for the iPhones to be this fake for this high of a person is ridiculous. even when its updated to the newest version its still the same replica layout !
Your first hint that backmarket has nothing worthwhile to offer. Is that all of their videos on RUclips? Have no opportunity for you to offer a comment.
I bought in early June, and I think prices in general have gone up (with the overall economy not doing so well more people are looking to buy refurbished...) That said, the prices often fluctuate significantly over a few days, so keep checking it and it'll probably come down a bit.
Also search the model you want, and sort by 'lowest price first' they don't always show you the listing with the best prices first... I can see the s20 ultra for just under 310 currently. Which ain't great tbh, but is a little better.
I decided to go with Back Market because of the warranty. They have 1 year. Gazelle is only 30 days as far as I can tell. Just ordered a phone. Will see how it goes. UPDATE in comment below.
UPDATE: I needed two phones. I ordered one from Back Market. The other a couple days later from Decluttr. The Back Market phone is NOT the one I ordered. I specifically ordered a T-Mobile phone and they sent me a factory-unlocked one. Decluttr DID send the one I ordered. Now I'm pissed, because Decluttr HAD two, and now they don't have any more. I'll see how the return process goes with Back Market and hopefully Decluttr will get more in. I hope the return process goes smoothly. Probably will not use Back Market again if they don't send me what I ordered! I wasted time and lost out on a phone. Now I have to go through the rigamarole of the return process.
@@lisaalony415 I am really sorry to hear that (and that i missed your update at first), I haven't really heard of Decluttr i dont think we have them in the UK either...

Hi I'm thinking about getting an iphone 11 pro max from backmarket here in uk.. so I'm thinking is it worth it? Cause I'm afraid lol.please let me know.
If looks are very important to you, then you really only have one choice, excellent. Especially with refurbished iphones (androids I've had good experiences buying lower tiers)
im thinking of buying an ipjone 11 pro, im worried but after seeing these comments i might do it. i lost my phone and have already used the applecare theft and lost to its capacity so it wont cover anything.
I have overwhelmingly had good experiences with them, especially phones, but is there a particular reason you'd prefer the 11 pro over the 12? It's only a touch more and I generally feel the year newer is worth more than the 'pro'... Especially if you're not getting one with a replaced battery...
Sorry I don't know, I mean I think they are unlikely to scam you on just that as they appear to be a legitimate marketplace, but what the experience is like, idk...
@@whizzard This is US. I haven't returned the MacBook yet, but I don't think getting money back will be a problem. The problem is that they don't understand the inconvenience it causes.
Ah, thanks. Yes, I agree, the inconvenience is often not accounted for, and I think some refurbishers take advantage and don't rest the devices thoroughly figuring it is cheaper to pay the return postage than do their job... I dunno what the solution is though...
@@whizzard That makes a lot of sense. Not sure if it is a solution but I would have preferred if they hadn't made such tall claims about the quality of the products.
I'm really thinking of buying my dream phone on back market and these reviews seem promising please tell me if I should buy from there or not! I've seen a lot of reviews of people getting scammed out of ridiculous amounts of money and I've also seen a lot of positive reviews so please tell me if I should buy from the back Market!!

I think shops like Backmarket should allow you to check a box that asks you to whether you want a charging cable or not. Because while I know some people don't have the necessary cables for their phone/tablet/etc, many people have so many friggen cords.
So maybe an "Opt-In" box would be nice

In 2021 or 2022, some kind person removed my iPod Shuffle from my coat pocket in the cloakroom at work. This distressed me a lot, but I was absolutely devastated when I went online in order to purchase a replacement, only to be informed that Apple had stopped making them and that therefore this would be impossible. This is what led me to place an order with Back Market for what purported to be the same device.
What was delivered was not an iPod and was not even made by Apple, though it had had a small Apple logo somehow superimposed onto it. Further, the quality of reproduction it gave was so appalling that it could never be used. The nearest comparison I could make would be that it sounded like on old 78 record played on a wind-up gramophone, but with a stylus which is hopelessly worn. I was really too upset to complain, so I just put it away and have never used it.
I'm sorry man, that's a real series of unfortunate events... Have you considered ebay? No warranties but you generally have pictures of the actual item you are ordering...
I guess you probably don't need an ipod anymore in the era of smartphones 🤷♂️ but maybe just for nostalgia's sake...

I have bought an alternative piece of tech now, but I usually wish that it was an Apple one. Thanks for your good wishes.

Hi!
This would seem to be a very good idea, but the situation was really a little more complex than this. The work that I did made the risk very high of smashing or losing a smartphone but at the same time people at the job had to be able to reach you when they might not actually know where you are. For this reason I only carried an old school Nokia about with me during work. Thanks for bothering to suggest though.
My wife didn't know it was a reseller site and ordered me a phone . Let's just say it's an expensive paper weight. Backmarket is a scam or at minimum a mediator for scammers
I'm sorry to hear that, what's wrong with it? And have you tried returning?
I'm very very carefull about third parties on backmarket. I bought two note 9s but gave up when 2 months later both their internal hardware failed and went into complete shutdown and became bricks.
Sorry to hear, I have had that with an old s4 before (not from backmarket), have you been able to return under warranty?
@@whizzard I got a full refund but a very bad customer service with the seller
Good that you got a refund, but that's a shame. Thankfully I haven't had to return one, I imagine some of the refurbishers can be quite a pain to deal with, I'm a little surprised you had to go to them in the first place, i thought returns were through backmarket themselves?
Same experience! The first time I bought from them the phone arrived with a battery problem and there was no way I could return the product. so I have never gone back there.
I bought my first phone from Back Market and it is NOT the model I ordered! Now I'll see how the return process goes. Hopefully not too much of hassle but annoying since they didn't send me what I ordered. Ordered from Decluttr and they sent what I ordered. Don't think I'll be using Back Market again.
So I bought a phone from Back Market and Decluttr. Back Market sent the wrong model. BUT it was a relatively easy process to return it. Decluttr, on the other hand was a NIGHTMARE! Still ongoing.
Sorry to hear that, it's always a pain when they mess up, and you're the one who has to spend time fixing it... What went wrong with Decluttr? (I don't think we have them here in the UK so this is purely curiosity.)
I am missing part of my order and get no response from anyone. I probably will never order from back market again since their help center sends you to the same place over and over.
Sorry to hear that ☹️ Try making a stink on twitter... Sometimes that's the only way to get through to brands...
are you missing something major or just a cable?
don't use backmarket unless you want to get ripped off, terrible service. You can't blame a customer if the item was sent that way and mind you I complained the very day I recieved it.
Sorry to hear that, man. Did you ever manage to get it sorted out?
I’m so skeptical, I wanted to buy a 12 pro and my option was swappa becuase ik someone who bought from there but then I see ur video and checked black market out and they’re cheaper than I expected. I’m worried about 2 things, I pay and it comes in worse condition than I agreed or it takes too long or doesn’t arrive.
Thanks for watching. I think you can rely on Backmarket to step in if either of those becomes a problem. I don't really know about swappa... I need to look it up.
My current iPhone 12 Pro is from Backmarket. It came in good condition and works fine. Just read the refurbisher reviews before buying.
I'm glad to hear! Yes, this is important.

Thanks for following! Yeah, the phones weren't too bad, I'd say my best experience (the s20 ultra) was from a seller called 'Uber Link Ltd.'
Good luck, and let me know how it goes...
You have a 12 month warranty so you should be able to have them fix or replaced.
I had a very bad experience with this company and I don't trust them. They messed me about giving me wrong information. They then told me I need to send them a copy of my driving licence or passport before they would take payment from my card! Unbelievably bad customer service and I won't have anything more to do with them.
Hmmm, sounds a little shady... What information did they mess up on?

Backmarket sent me a cracked phone with loose adhesive and when I tried sending it back for a return they sent it back saying it was not included in the warrenty.
I'm sorry to hear that, that's a real pain. I dunno where you are based, but there are consumer protections to help with that kind of thing here in the UK, normally writing an email quoting relevant protections is enough to get things sorted pronto... If there is something wrong with a Product in the 1st 30 days, the onus is almost always on the seller to prove it wasn't present at purchase...
The ending. 😅😅.

Thanks, hopefully more soon 🤷♂️

that nice case will break your phone when you drop it it falls on front glass ,look for sellers that have been selling for a few years on backmarket,,back market sticks a $5 charge they also seem to charge seller $25 as i got 2 paypal charges,i have been happy with phones but dont order fair,i notice samsung have screen burn in so i just ordered new phone elsewhere,
I think I got scammed by them. Bought an excellent Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5g for 530. After only 2 weeks I noticed heavy brightness differences starting, then one morning, a stress crack going from the right on/off button towards the middle. no drop or bent or anything. they refused warrenty with the reason "cracked display" and offered me to sell it to them again. now, 2 months in, I have it back, the crack is now curving downwards, growing. and the display gets greener daily. I am now back on my note 8 and the "new" one is back in the box.
I also tested the display: it is in fact not 120hz, but only 60. I also think the camera is a cheap fake since it has heavy problems with any focus. Any ideas?
Sorry this got caught by RUclipss filter for some reason.
That's awful, I don't really have anything to say to help, maybe someone else can weigh in...
You know what, if you can figure out if it is actually a non original display that should force backmarket to accept it... I don't know what consumer protections are like where you are, but if you have been sold something other than what was advertised there may well be something that can be done.
Always buy the accidental drop and spill insurance they offer for $25 for 13 months or $35 for 24 months. So worth it . Yes you still have to pay like a $50 fee to repair your phone but at least you aren't' out hundreds or more and can relax knowing you are covered.
@@youaregoingtolovethis which wouldnt have fixed the fake 60hz display, the discolouration nor the sketchy battery. I have an original Samsung display and battery now. Sidenote: In addition to all that: Phone turned out to be an american model, traded and repaired in France and then sold to Germany. So who knows what else is up here...and again...it was never dropped, banged nor was it bent. you can litterally feel the difference with the original glas now.
@@youaregoingtolovethisnot true, I'm here after my phone went black screen. I got the 13 month warranty and they said my LCD was damaged and refused to fix it. Never dropped or exposed to water

Was planning to get a Google pixel 6 Pro but wasn't sure. Maybe I'll choose the good grade for safe measures.

There's got to be some way around that, maybe a pseudonym and using paypal, or even a prepaid card...
hello there, i discovered backmarket a couple of days ago..and im really considering try this out but..im kind of ''afraid'' about any scam posibility or smth like this. I wanna move from my old iphone 6s to an iphone 11 pro just because i wanna get a more latest kind of iphone but with a small inches screen. could you give any tip/info if its worth ''take the risk'', because as i already checked dont have as payment option ''pay on delivery'' just by using card or paypal. thanks in advance!
Hi, I don't think there is really any worry of scam, if you are not happy with the phone you can always return it for 30 days I believe. And if there is anything wrong with it, it is covered by their 1 yr. warranty.
If small size is most important to you, have you considered the iPhone 12 mini? Probably less powerful than the 11 pro, but smaller and newer...
You could also pay by credit card, I think many provide an extra safety net.
@@whizzard well sorry if my question was miss understooding...but what i wanted to express is my thinkings about site and company scam without even exist..so using 1 year warranty isnt meaning much ..i dont maybe am far too suspicious..also i kind of pick iphone 10 pro instead of 12 mini just because of the battery like 1k+ mah difference
Fair, but I think they are probably OK, as they have been around since 2014, and my experience with them was overall good. You can look them up on the website 'trustpilot' for others' reviews.

I discovered that you couldn't ship from the US version out of the US so I had assumed the same was true of the European ones, guess I was wrong. Let me know if it arrives...
@@whizzard yeah right and I'll let you know!
Welp, I cancelled the order and decided to want my money back since I never received the order and never got an update to the delivery location, last update was from June 1st that I would get a notification about it as soon as possible and still nothing. So days later, I just ended up just not wanting my thing anymore and bought it off in a better site, which was even closer to Sweden and not somewhere from France, which took so long
I think from the review which was great and the written reviews, I'll pass on black market I'm too scared.
Thanks, fair enough... Though I'm not sure what the safer option is at refurbished prices? Amazon renewed maybe?
Back Market's web site doesn't tell you which version of windows you're going to get. I contacted help and they were no help. They told me to contact the seller. What good is a middleman who can't answer a basic question? I mean, imagine Best Buy telling you they don't know what version of windows is coming with the PC you just bought. THEN back Back Market wanted to know if I liked my experience with them. Imagine that! THEY want INFO from ME! Good grief -- how clueless they are.
I hear what you're saying...I have not bought things a few times because the details were lacking... But, despite that (and the way they present themselves) I think one should think of them as more akin to an 'Ebay', a very light handed middleman who don't handle the goods themselves (I'm not even sure if returns go through them)... If their prices were much higher than other refurbishers then I would expect better service, but as they're not for the most part, I'm willing g to cut them some slack here...
@@whizzard Back Market brags that they adhere to a "rigorous vetting process" and that they "work hand-in-hand with professional refurbishers"...but they can't tell me which version of windows comes with a machine? And let's get real here: I wrote code for 35 years -- it's a simple task to provide attributes in a database table, and they certainly could have allowed for a field that holds a value to indicate the OS version. My god, it's design & coding 101. Was there no user testing pre-implementation? It's pathetic. You're free to make excuses for them, but I won't do so.
Watched this on my Samsung Galaxy S22 I got from Back Market this past spring. Has anyone seen how much Samsung wants for one?👀
Hey I bought an IPhone 11 from back market Germany. The battery is indicated as unknown and I can’t see the battery life, is this a major issue?
Well, I'm no expert on Iphones, but my best guess is the original battery may have been replaced with a generic battery.... I don't know if this is problematic beyond the points you have mentioned... Hopefully someone else can weigh in...
afaik yeah the battery must've been replaced and they opted for a 3rd party component meaning apple may refuse repairs (not sure if all or just battery) But that's pretty disappointing since there website claims they use all genuine apple parts, now im more apprehensive..

back market is a real site and they ship your items to you but these items are replicated they don't use original parts. if you want extra proof get a real iphone vs a back market iphone and put the 2 phones on a regular call and look at the font sizes on the regular calls and compare the 2 phone. Not only that when you facetime someone they don't use the regular layout and these go for all phones sold on this site it's a scam for the iPhones to be this fake for this high of a person is ridiculous. even when its updated to the newest version its still the same replica layout !

How are your prices so low for me s20 ultra is 350£
I bought in early June, and I think prices in general have gone up (with the overall economy not doing so well more people are looking to buy refurbished...) That said, the prices often fluctuate significantly over a few days, so keep checking it and it'll probably come down a bit.
Also search the model you want, and sort by 'lowest price first' they don't always show you the listing with the best prices first... I can see the s20 ultra for just under 310 currently. Which ain't great tbh, but is a little better.

I'll see how the return process goes with Back Market and hopefully Decluttr will get more in. I hope the return process goes smoothly.

Fair, good or excellent?
I want a phone looks like a brand new phone
If looks are very important to you, then you really only have one choice, excellent. Especially with refurbished iphones (androids I've had good experiences buying lower tiers)
im thinking of buying an ipjone 11 pro, im worried but after seeing these comments i might do it. i lost my phone and have already used the applecare theft and lost to its capacity so it wont cover anything.
I have overwhelmingly had good experiences with them, especially phones, but is there a particular reason you'd prefer the 11 pro over the 12? It's only a touch more and I generally feel the year newer is worth more than the 'pro'... Especially if you're not getting one with a replaced battery...
I want to knock if selling or trading in is legit because they ask for bank info and social
Sorry I don't know, I mean I think they are unlikely to scam you on just that as they appear to be a legitimate marketplace, but what the experience is like, idk...
Does anyone looks at the the percentage (%) less vs new to help determine its condition?
anything 84 and up is cool
yes, as @Nazareth Washington said they guarantee a certain battery health, somewhere around 85% if i remember correctly.
2 out of 3 pf my purchases were defective. Customer service is poor. Pretty much a game of chance to be getting something decent.

I just bought the s22 by theses reviews should I cancel my order 😭😂
No, why?! 🤣 Let me know how it is when it arrives...

I was hoping someone would pick up on that! 🤣
@@whizzard it was indeed very British 😂😂
😂
Calling back market a scam is funny
who called them a scam? 🤣
@@whizzard The title of the video
@@footagecatchers705 i asked the question, i didn't call them a scam...
Is just phone sales trustable?
In sorry, I don't understand what you are asking?
@@whizzard “just phone sales” is a store that sells iPads and iphones, are they trustable?
@@MYBESTSHOTS obviously not, if they sell more than just phones 🤣
No, sorry idk ive never bought from them... they on backmarket uk?
@@whizzard i think so, they have a physical store too… in the netherlands
@@MYBESTSHOTS oh, interesting...
I watched this video twice?. So how is Back Market a scam????
I appreciate you watching man, who said they're a scam? 😂
1:36 am i the only one that going to talk about that excellent is cheaper than good?
Actually because of the way individual sellers set their own prices, this happens quite frequently...
They stole my iphone 12, I have them the phone and never got paid.
I don't understand, are you a seller?
@@whizzard Yes I sold an iphone 12 mini. Still to this day never got paid. Sold the device 2/18/23.
@@logical-perspectiveculture2695 sorry to hear... are you an individual seller, or do you sell many phones there?
Do they do trade, or buy old phones
I think as part of a purchase they offer that now, possibly only in some countries...
So can i buy a ps4 from there i live in greece???
I don't know if they are good value, but there does appear to be a Greek version of Backmarket...
@@whizzard are they used?
@@aggelos6768 yes everything on black market besides the accessories are refurbished which means used but restored
@@Vex22778 exactly as @Aggelos said.
I'm really thinking of buying my dream phone on back market and these reviews seem promising please tell me if I should buy from there or not! I've seen a lot of reviews of people getting scammed out of ridiculous amounts of money and I've also seen a lot of positive reviews so please tell me if I should buy from the back Market!!
I don't think you are likely to get scammed, though some people seem to have had hassle with their service...
@@whizzard okay, I just don’t understand why companies would scam people knowing they could get Into what I like to call headache problems ! Anyways thank you for the response!
@@Cat_gato1 Yeah... Good luck and let me know how it goes if you do buy from them!
@@whizzard Thank you! & I will!
@@Cat_gato1what was the battery health
Is this safe if i buy iphone14
Why not?
So it not a scam
The phone was keep by plastic and prayer.😂
Literally though! 🤣
