    MacBook- recommended resellers??

    Hi

    I’m looking for a used 13” MacBook for my son to use while at college. Having missed a few on here, I’ve been looking on EBay as there are lots of resellers on there.

    Thought I’d see if anyone had any recommendations of resellers that they have used in the past?

    Doesn’t need to be the latest and greatest machine, but something in good condition without any issues.

    Cheers

    I've not bought an Apple from them, but Morgan always seem pretty good.

    We've bought a few PCs from them over the years and never had any issues.

    No problem. I have not bought from them - yet, but one of my clients has and never had any issues.
    I'm in the market for a new MacMini for the home office, and compared to eBay, their prices are competitive and include a warranty. There's also a 5% discount for signing up to their newsletter.

    It looks like it’s closed at the moment (I guess to do with the iPhone 14 release) but I’d always compare what’s available on the official Apple refurbished store

    If you are looking to buy from a reseller due to warranty purposes aftersales security, there is a TZer who specialises in Macbooks/iMacs/Apple gear from a service perspective who may be able to point you in the right, trusted, direction. I'm afraid I cannot remember his username! But hope others can chime in.

    Now that would be good to know! Not just for this but generally.

    This, I actually buy refurbished more than new. The stuff is completely re-made and in perfect condition.
