Buying MBP online

randombar · 2012-02-13 09:26:26

Hi Lads, going to the states in April thinking I might have a look around for a MBP on craigslist or one of those sites. Any way of checking with a serial number whether a MBP is robbed? Should a system check uncover most faults or are there hidden issues to watch out for??

I wouldn't buy a second hand one tbh honest.
Why not buy a new one while you are over there ? You'll still save about 30% depending on the exchange rate

Now if I knew someone working for Apple in the US to get their discount I'd be laughing!!!
