I’m currently at five years with my iPhone 11 Pro. I’ll probably upgrade (and deApple) by the end of the year.

Oh man, the phones going for £90 are about the same spec as the phone I got at the end of 2022.

So now I'm stressing, do I upgrade and make this phone my take out phone and buy a new phone to keep my important stuff, like my banking apps.

I really would prefer to buy a refurb. I had a bad experience last time I did. Also, some places don't do their due diligence and will sell stolen phones.

I keep hearing people singing the praises of #backmarket, I don't get what I'm missing. Because when I was on the hunt for this phone, I checked them out, and they were more expensive than the exact same model new.

I thought, maybe something has changed, but I just looked and... what do you know.

In fairness, the price for good quality, rather than excellent, is £90.

I got my Huion drawing tablet refurbed for a big discount compared to buying new, direct from Huion's ebay. Why is backmarket so expensive?

Hello Mastodon! Let's kick it off with a fun topic: the EU regulation called #DAC7. Never heard of it?
Now is the time to learn about it with this blog post: https://engineering.backmarket.com/compliance-cooperation-and-open-sourcing-dac7-084c5ccff92f on how #BackMarket is complying with this regulation! 📚🤓 With some #OpenSource #OSS of course!
Compliance, cooperation, and open-sourcing: DAC7 - Back Market Blog

Open sourcing and cooperation are an interesting response to the challenges of compliance. That is why Back Market is releasing what was developed for DAC7.

Est-ce que vous avez des avis à partager sur #BackMarket ?

Il y a environ 6 mois j'y ai acheté un aspirateur, qui a fini par me lâcher il y a quelques semaines. Je viens de faire jouer la garantie mais je suis déçu : ils me proposent simplement de le renvoyer et de me rembourser. Je pensais qu'une réparation me serait proposée. Ça dépend peut-être de la société à laquelle on achète le produit reconditionné cela dit. Et la société qui a reconditionné mon aspirateur est située en Espagne, ce qui n'est pas très local vu que j'habite en Loire-Atlantique.
De mon côté donc : première expérience de BackMarket très mitigée !
