    Simply perfect from online purchase to receipt of device and payment for trade-in. Refurbished device is as new. Well done and thank you Backmarket

    Overall experience fine, delivery was quick. iPad functions good, some very small scratches on edge of display and a small ding on the metal right side near apple pen charging area. Rest of the iPad is ok so far. Bizarrely came with 2 aftermarket charging plug adapters and 1 cable. I think this should not have been listed as "excellent condition" but "good condition" due to the scratches on display and ding on edge. If there is any chance of compensation for this issue then much would be appreciated. You would expect "Excellent condition" to be pristine wouldn't you?

    Bought an iPad mini 6 for my partner for his bday. He absolutely loves it. Looks brand new to me. Wasn't a single scratch or mark on it. Due to it being refurbished it also meant for the price I could get a significantly higher memory capacity than if I bought new so really happy. He loves it. I'll be buying my next phone from here. Good service, fast delivery, great product.

    Customer service response from Back Market was very quick when I queried the item delivery delay (due to the Royal Mail Christmas service). The parcel was well-packaged with bubble wrap and the iPad Mini 6 was in its original box along with a charger, USB C cable and Apple leaflet. The iPad itself is in absolutely mint condition with no scratches or dents to the screen or casing. I’m unable to check the battery health percentage as it’s an iPad but can confirm that the battery holds its charge for around 3-4 days with average use which is excellent. Overall, I am extremely happy with my iPad and would definitely recommend the seller to family and friends.

    ipad in perfect condition - ordered ‘excellent’ so expected it to be. it didn’t come with an apple charger but i’m guessing that doesn’t matter, and it was only wrapped in a bit of bubble wrap and the box was quite dented when i received it. however no dents or scratches on the ipad so i would recommend!!!

    It was a big thing to change my iPad but my grandson recommended back market. I sorted which I wanted and he ordered it for me. Came really quickly as advised and thrilled with it. I paid extra for excellent condition and stacks of storage and it looks like new. Once Grandson set it up I was away! My previous one very elderly so a lot of changes on new one but enjoying finding them all out. Wonderful service thank you,

    I was actually amazed at the condition of the iPad mini 6 I purchased. I assumed it would have some slightly marks or wear and tear but it looked like it had been taken straight out of the box. I’d definitely buy from this site again.
