Consider a Back Market purchase

Extremely satisfied with the tall form Frigidaire, 12k btu air conditioner I purchased. The price was unbeatable and correspondence with the warehouse was exactly as described. It fit perfectly in my narrow window and blows ice cold air. The unit arrived early and was well protected in the shipped package. I will definitely purchase from Back Market again, thank you for a pleasant experience!

I will most definitely do business with Back Market again, because their prices are very good relative to what you get, and because this iPhone 15 Pro although refurbished with a new non-Apple battery works perfectly and looks great. The email updates about time of arrival et cetera as well as the email instructions about how to transfer from my old phone to this newer one were very helpful too.

Beware

Beware, I ordered a phone. Refused delivery. (So never even took possession of the item) and they claimed I broke the camera before I returned it. refused to refund.

better no

"I bought a MacBook Pro, and within a week it stopped working; it just shut down and never turned on again. I reported the problem, but since I was in Spain, they couldn't provide a solution. It took them a week just to tell me that I either had to return to the United States to get it repaired or that they would refund my money. They couldn't fix the computer, so they refunded the money—nothing else. I spent almost 20 days without a computer.

Then, I bought another one. This computer was more expensive and better, so I thought it would work. However, it immediately started overheating when used, and the battery life was extremely short. On the company’s website, they explain that all computers are verified by professionals to ensure they work properly, etc... In this case, I don't think they verified the proper functioning of this computer at all, so I had to return it yet again.

What I mean to say is that this can happen once, but twice? And they don't take any kind of responsibility or offer a discount on the next purchase, etc... I don't think it's fair. I would never think of recommending anyone to buy from Back Market.

Phone is overall giving really solid performance, ordered excellent and I can hardly tell this phone was used. Only downside I personally had is more of an issues with this model of phone being the power efficiency issues, but overall solid phone.
