Hi all,
I'm looking to find out what outfits (besides Smalldog and PowerMax) sell refurbished Macs. I'm in the market but I can't seem to find any other refurb vendors. Anybody have any idea?

Heh. Yeah, I already checked there. In fact, it was the first place I looked. It's kind of odd, though. I clicked on the refurb section and all I got in the inventory section as this message:

"Refurbished Apple Products are temporarily out of stock. Please check back again soon. Thank you for your interest in Apple's Refurbished Products."

Check it out for yourselves. Apple Store Refurb Section. (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72103/wo/gz1mY0M2jsBq3wVHWjR1Yj4Dqwm/0.3.0.3.27.7.0.SpecialDealsFrontPagePromo.0.0.0.0.3.1.1.0?59,24)

Anywhere else that I might be able to find a refurb PowerMac? My girlfriend needs a new CAD station. Thanks!

Oh okay. Try CDW or something. I'm not big into the refurb scene so I'm not too sure. Try MacMall or General Cybernetics as well. Good luck!

MacConnection.com usually has refurbs for sale. Also, Powerbookcentral.com is a good place to find a listing of various refurb deals that are out there (and not just for powerbooks).

Try www.smalldog.com. My brother purchased a 15" Refurb TiBook and has been very happy with it...

look behind any macworld magazine on the last pages

i would do refurbished before going onto e-bay

and apple.com refurbished seems like a good idea
