I've been using Macs for well over 15 years. Most of my purchases were either new (directly from Apple) or from Mac of all Trades (when acquiring a refurbished model). As a software developer and UX designer, my MacBook is my primary tool for everything. I decided to give Back Market a try and I'm SO glad I did. The initial purchase and shopping experience was seamless. I received my MacBook Pro in less than 48 hours. The quality, reliability, and overall condition were absolutely perfect. I'm quite confident I'll only be purchasing my Apple products from Back Market moving forward. The easiest 5/5 stars I've given any product thus far in 2023 (and I buy and review many products online). THANK YOU Back Market!

Very skeptical at first about this since I have never placed an order from back market. Package came early and is in very good condition! Will definitely be ordering from here again!
