Do I need to include accessories when I trade in a device on Back Market?

Including accessories when trade-in depends the device type. Most devices (smartphones, tablets, MacBooks) don't require accessories.
Here are the accessory requirements by category:

Device type

Accessories that must be sent with the device

Smartphones & tablets

You don’t need to include accessories (e.g. charger, cable, headphones, or SIM card)

Headphones and earphones

Audio cables, charger, or charging case

Gaming consoles

Charger and cables are mandatory. Please include the same number of controllers you listed during the assessment of your item.

MacBook

You don’t need to include accessories (e.g. charger, cable, mouse, etc.)

Please note: Items sent without the accessories listed above may receive a counteroffer with an updated price.

However, refurbishers can’t send counteroffers in the following situations:

  • Missing accessories that are not mandatory (i.e. listed above)

  • Accessories that are functional and have a "Used", "Good", or "Flawless" appearance

Please note that any accessories you send to the refurbisher (mandatory or not) will be sent back to you with the item in the case of a return.

You’re not required to send your device with its original box, though in some cases the refurbisher might request you to send it if you have it.
