    Arrived quickly and in excellent condition. Working well. Only concern is that the box didn’t say Apple on it, or have the Apple symbol, which made me wonder about the validity. Is this because you make the boxes when you recondition the AirPods?

    As an Apple product this item is still latched to another account, making it a security issue. Case battery is on its last gasp, but ok for the price. The item is functional at a first look and keeps up with original standards.

    Incredibly happy with the airpods - they’re in absolutely perfect condition. Not a single fault on them. There was a bit of a hiccup with the delivery but no fault of the seller, however, the Back Market team dealt with the entire situation incredibly - constant updates and support. As always, BackMarket is my go to!

    I am highly impressed with the AirPods (3rd generation, 2021 edition) I ordered. They arrived super fast (within 2 days) and are in an - as described - excellent condition. The sound quality of the AirPods is as if they are brand new and they are working 100% efficiently. I am very impressed with the quality of my order and would order from here again in a heartbeat!

    Fast delivery. Great price. AirPods - no marks, arrived charged. I bought iPhone maybe 3 yrs ago from Back Market so I trusted I’d get another great deal- I do recommend to friends. (PS I’ve had two other makes of earbuds but endless faffing connecting and disconnecting. AirPods instantly click from phone to iPad to Mac.)

Benefits of buying refurbished AirPods 3 at Back Market


 


At Back Market, customers save up to 50% off compared to the price of new on certified refurbished AirPods 3. The best part is, you don't have to sacrifice performance in order to save money; all refurbished devices on our marketplace have been fully reconditioned, cleaned, inspected and tested to the same standards as a new one. This is the biggest difference between buying used or second hand AirPods 3 compared to refurbished ones.


Buying reconditioned AirPods 3 is also a much friendlier environmental option. Refurbished AirPods 3 are often second hand or used AirPods  that have been restored and updated to meet the manufacturer's standards, which means you'll be helping to keep old AirPods out of our landfills, reduce electronic waste, and minimise your carbon footprint.


 


Where is the best place to buy a cheap refurbished AirPods 3?


 


If you're looking for cheap AirPods 3 deals, but without the compromise on quality and performance, then Back Market has you covered. With AirPods 3 prices up to 50% less than brand new, and a thorough screening process for refurbished sellers to partner with us, you can rest assured that your reconditioned Apple Watch Ultra will perform just like new.


Staying true to our brand, we're also a huge advocate for environmental change. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we hit a milestone for preventing 1 million tons of carbon emission (CO2e) from entering the atmosphere. You can help contribute to a better circular economy when you shop cheap AirPods 3 deals on our platform.


 


Is it better to buy a reconditioned AirPods 3 instead of a used or second hand AirPods 3?


 


Buying used or second hand AirPods 3 with no guarantees that the device has been refurbished, nor a return policy or warranty poses a huge risk. Thankfully, with Back Market, we don't just list certified refurbished sellers, but we also add in a minimum 12-month's warranty, 30-day return policy, and free delivery too - all at no extra cost! If you're looking for a cheap AirPods 3 deal in the UK, look no further than Back Market!


 


What to expect when buying a refurbished AirPods 3


 


If you're a first time refurbished buyer, you might not be sure what to expect from your purchase. First, understand that your AirPods 3 may have external cosmetic flaws depending on the condition you choose (Back Market offers devices of Fair, Good and Excellent quality). However, whatever the condition, any external blemishes will not affect the performance of your refurbished AirPods 3 and you can expect your device to perform as if it were newly opened directly from the Apple Store.  You should also be confident that your AirPods 3 is backed by a 1-year warranty, meaning in the rare case that any defects arise (outside of accidental damage) within 12 months of your delivery date, then you're entitled to your choice of a repair, replacement or reimbursement.
