Let’s make the refurbish economy great again!
Fix It, Then Pass It On: iFixit Joins Forces with Back Market
Let’s say your phone starts slowing down. Battery life’s tanking. The screen’s got a few, uh, character lines. You could toss it in a drawer, start browsing for a shiny new upgrade—and boom, the cycle of overconsumption rolls on.
But maybe instead, you trade it in with Back Market. You get a discount on an already-cheaper refurbished device (up to 70% less than new!). Meanwhile, your old phone heads off to a refurbisher, who gives it a deep clean, swaps in a new battery, polishes up the screen, and posts it online. It finds a new home with someone who just wants a solid device without the premium price tag. A win for your wallet, their wallet, and the planet.
