Laptop is perfect. Feels brand new, down to the box it arrived in. Was really happy with experience with Back Market from start to finish. Easy to use website, fast payment and very prompt delivery. Excellent service.

Ordered a Macbook Pro Core i7, received it in 2 days, great delivery by DHL courier, but sadly and frustratingly it wasn't i7 which obviously i paid more for, it was core i5 and it didn't have an SSD drive as it was supposed to have. DHL'd back for a full refund - :(

After some doubts about Back Market, a friend who had used it before recommended I give it a try, saying it’s reliable and the products are in great condition. I’m so glad I did my MacBook Pro arrived in excellent shape, and I absolutely love it. Definitely money well spent!

Delivery on time, very attractive price, 400€ for the i5 version, 16go of ram and 1To, battery still in normal condition. The macbook works very well even under the latest macOS, no lag, no bugs. I bought it in decent condition but honestly I can't see any cosmetic flaws so I was very pleasantly surprised. The only fault is that the mac heats up quite a bit but nothing alarming. I recommend the seller Wisetek
