The watch arrived on time, for which I was grateful. It was in perfect condition and I am very happy with it, even though I’ve had it for nearly a year now. For this, they deserve five stars.... See more

Sent a Faulty Phone in the WRONG colour too
I ordered a BLUE iPhone 14 refurbished in excellent condition for my husband's bday. They sent me the midnight black colour and offered me a $30 partial refund for the inconvenience even though I'd already paid about that much extra for the blue colour. The phone arrived dirty with finger prints and marks on it. Did not look "excellent condition" whatsoever and consistently gave us temperature warnings without being hot and "unknown parts detected" warnings. The temperature warning came up every day for the 30 days we've had it. It's now day 30 and we are sending the phone back.
Writing my honest review here as BackMarket did not put my 1-star review on their website.
I guess it's a 50/50 chance with them. 50% of customers get a decent phone and I suppose they must be the only reviews they post. Not worth the risk. Would not recommend.
I'm going back to Reebelo. Never had a bad experience with them. Worth the extra money.

Reply from Back Market - Australia
Hi Aimee,
I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I know that receiving the wrong colour, particularly when it was meant to be a birthday gift, is frustrating enough without the added concerns about device performance.
I see that our team worked with you to initially arrange a partial refund as you wished to keep the device, and then supported you through a return.
I want to address your concern about your Back Market review and assure you that your review is published. I can see that your review was posted on 6 May 2026 and is live. We publish all customer reviews unless it breaches our guidelines (such as using profanity, contains harmful or illegal language, etc).
That said, I'm genuinely sorry this wasn't the perfect refurbished experience. We know trust is earned through consistent quality, not just one transaction. We hope to prove that if you are willing to give us another try.
If there's anything else we can help with going forward, please don't hesitate to reach out at help.backmarket.com.au.
Cheers,
Back Market Australia
Great business!
Have, so far, purchased three iPhones from Back Market. All as described, or better.

I was a bit nervous ordering from them
I was a bit nervous ordering from them, but I was very pleasantly surprised and impressed! My laptop arrived quickly (I paid for express to make sure) in excellent condition, and so far it's working great. I'd be happy to purchase from them again.

The phone arrived quickly and is in perfect condition. The price was good. The selling experience was not so positive- I had to send two inquiries, an email and start a chat before finally receiving the return label. This delayed being able to post the phone by two days.

Great service and great for the plantet - winning combination!
Great service. I purchased an iPhone mini13 as I prefer smaller phones and only changed because my 6-yearold iPhone 12 mini kept overheating and turning itself off! Love that buying a refurbished phone is better for the planet - we need more of this in a world which has fallen in love with disposable everything, without thinking about how we manage waste! Service was swift, my refurnished iPhone 1 mini is just like a new one, love it!
