We got our PlayStation and it was excellent! They packaged it well and there was no damage to the system! Runs smoothly and we got set up on it within 20 minutes. I couldn't be happier with the results from Backmarket and their suppliers!

Almost no signs of wear. The body may have very light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

PS3 arrived very clean almost like new! Controller works fine, only had to change the charging cable the one that came with it is finicky. Used a different cable and all great now! Very satisfied and tell my coworkers about Backmarket all of the time. As a matter of fact typing this review on a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max.

The item works as advertised, but the cosmetic condition of the console I would not describe as excellent. There are lots of scratches, etc and I feel this should have been rated in good condition, not excellent, considering excellent is "almost no signs of wear, may have micro scratches" it is worse than that.

Used ps3 looked like new. Now we can play our old ps3 games that you can’t get anymore. Thank you Back Market for your wonderful service. The shipping was slow but that was no fault of yours. Thank you once again. I took a gamble on you and it paid off.

Works fine needed to be cleaned to get the couch out of the fan and air flow. Runs fine and does what I expected a ps3 to do

The quality of this refurbished item, I purchased the highest quality they offered by the way, leaves a lot to be desired. for spending nearly 200 on a ps3 I would have gotten a better one off Craigslist or Facebook marketplace. The disc drive works to varying degrees of success, they sent a broken controller so it was good I had a spare.

Perfect backup for my PS3 Slim. Extremely clean and runs like a top. I installed a cheap 1tb SSD and a Hard Drive mounting bracket and now have a quiet blazing fast 'Like New" PS3 with room for more games than I'll ever install. But you never know.

The system itself was fine, the controller out of the box that the purchase came with was broken and not working correctly. The R2 button had almost been pushed completely out of the controller, and the hole the R2 button is in was busted, and a few big chips were broke off, aroujd the rdge of that hole, thays why the button had almost come completely out of the controller.. Luckily we had a old working controller.
