Refurbished Mac:the Good Plan to Buy Cheaper!

Apple will repair the product if necessary, repackage it in new packaging, and resell it.

It's not second-hand. These products are sold as new with a one-year warranty, between 15% and 30% less than their retail price.

At the beginning of the school year, I needed a computer a little more powerful than my previous machine.

Swearing only by Mac, so I decided to try the refurbished experience which turned out to be very positive:€200 on my MacBook Pro as far as I'm concerned.

What is it?

Refurbished Apple Devices are actually Ipad , Iphone , MacBook and other accessories , having already been used, which are sold by Apple . Be careful, this is not from the pure second-hand market.

Indeed the brand of the "bitten apple" resells its products as new .

These are devices only. which have beenoverhauled and refurbished by brand care.

It is, for example, a computer placed on display in an Apple store or at FNAC that will end up on your desk. After, of course, having been tested and approved by the brand.

The products are also guaranteed for one year .

How to buy a refurbished product?

Just go to the brand's commercial site in the refurbished section and make your choice.

Remember that these are used products! sometimes you have to know how to wait that the product you want is available .

This only happens on the Apple website.

My little extra thing to buy Apple and save money:take advantage of possible visits of friends or family in the United States .

Indeed, the prices are often much more interesting , for both new and refurbished.

You will realize savings of around 10% to 20% by buying refurbished equipment compared to new.

That's around €110 on a Mac mini and up to €230 on a dual-core 2.9 GHz Macbook Pro i7, not to go into detail!
