Another "Is this a good deal?" thread

I think I founf a pretty good deal.

It's for a Macbook Air (I hope you're not surprised!), the 80gig HDD version.

It comes with apple care, and some backpack. It is brand new, box is still sealed.

So 1800$ seems very good to me, what do you guys think?

If it's new, it's a good deal.

I can get MBAs through my work discount for $1545, so I probably wouldn't classify it as a super deal. You also need to consider if there's some reason the guy is selling it (overheating?) and if you'd be disappointed if they announce MBA updates in October.

After talking to the guy who's selling it and seeing the MBA (actually just the box because it's still sealed) it is not an 1.6 80gb HDD, it's the SSD version! It was some kind of gift for his wife but he got caught in a little thing called DIVORCE and he just wanted to get rid of it. I gave him 1300$CAN for it and I'm typing this on my brand new MBA!!!

That's a really good deal for 1300.

Most women would probably prefer flowers or jewelry... :p

[Bobjob186]

you payed $1300 for an 1.8 64GB MBA?!?! I'm really jealous of you right now.

[Heavenkittykat]

did you pay $1800 or $1300? But either way, you got yourself a REALLY GOOD DEAL for a SSD MBA! you're lucky;-)

[TFMTASAD]

I paid 1300$ for it. (yep 1300$)

[Scepticalscribe]

An interesting tale, a great deal, and a fortunate outcome. Well done, and congrats on your new MBA. Enjoy it and good luck.
Cheers

You can get a 1.8GHZ with 64SSD for $1999 shipped with Pay Pal protect for $2000. No risk!
Power seller!
