Got this iPad mini (6th gen) with cellular for work for $258 in “Fair” condition. Pleasantly surprised it got here today with a few minor scratches on the sides of the screen that aren’t noticeable unless you’re looking for them and everything seems to be working well. Easily could’ve spent 500+ if it was new so no complaints here.

The iPad is great. I did get the incorrect color. I got starlight instead of space grey to match all my other Apple products. Other than that, it matched the description perfectly. Set up was easy and fast.

My device arrived as described - fully charged and functional and working well. Funnily enough, on another platform I had been discussing over chat with a customer service representative from JemJem about another issue and they were very responsive and helpful - so I don't doubt if I had an issue, they would help me to resolve it.

I bought a refurbished iPad mini 2021 from Back Market and I am very impressed with the quality and service. The iPad was labeled good condition but it looked brand new with no scratches or dents. It also came with AppleCare until October, which is a nice bonus. The only issue I had was that the vendor sent me the wrong cable, but they quickly resolved it and sent me the correct one in less than a week. The customer service was friendly and helpful. I am very happy with my purchase and I would definitely buy from Back Market again. Highly recommended!

(a little lengthy, but worth the read for first time buyers) First and Foremost, I have been wanting to buy from BackMarket for the past year. I heard about them through (TikTok), so you can see where my hesitation was when purchasing. However I've heard nothing but exceptional stuff, plus I believe in reading/leaving reviews on any and everything I purchase. I have been looking at the (purple Ipad mini) and decided to just go ahead and purchase. (I checked out using Klarna so I pay in installment plans). I also sold my Ipad back to them as well, since they were offering money on items you no-longer use. The process was smooth and flawless. I ordered it about a week ago, and it was delivered to me through FED-EX. I chose the flawless condition, and went it arrived I was astonished! It look brand-spanking new, even though I know its a refurbished item. Once I received the Ipad, the next day, I printed out the shipping label and shipped my Ipad to BackMarket through (UPS). It arrived to them shortly (about 3 days on a Wednesday, I shipped it off Saturday). It took about 1-day for them to inspect it, to make sure it was in flawless condition. I got my money back today (Friday) and all has been well. The seller also included an apple charger, which was in great condition, and still had the wrap and tag on it. long story short.. lol in conclusion.. I am extremely pleased with my purchase. I got my money back from selling my old Ipad, while enjoying my new Ipad mini. I will be recommending this site to everyone. When I was looking at Bestbuy, to do the similar thing, they wanted way less for my IPAD than what Backmarket was offering me. CONS: none PROS: - reliable & fast shipping. - flawless condition. - signed for my IPAD through FEDEX. - they kept their word with giving me money back, for the IPAD i shipped to them. Pre-made shipping label. Did not have to pay for shipping. -Updated tracking for both my ipad mini, and my old one

I recently purchased an iPad mini from back market. It arrived packaged beautifully and it looked brand new. I had no problem setting it up and it is working beautifully. The price of the unit was very reasonable. I’m glad I went this route with back market as opposed to trying to purchase it New. they provide a great product at a most reasonable price. Thank God for a back market who had my best interest at heart. God bless this company as they continue to be a blessing to God’s people.

I was definitely reluctant to purchase from this site but my friend vouched for it and I really needed an iPad mini I choose “good condition “ and it was it only had 2 tint dents on the bottom left which u can’t even see because I always have a case on. I’m very happy with my purchase everything works amazing battery life is like new no issues here. Like other reviews said it did not come with an apple charger but that doesn’t bother me.
