I'm on the hunt for a MacBook box, specifically a CD model and if possible for a 1.83GHz model. Maybe even the recovery disks too etc. I recently got a MacBook for cheap for my girlfriend although it came without its disks and packaging. No, it wasn't stolen, it was damaged - the screen was smashed so all it came with was the power supply.

I already have a replacement screen on the way and I've already got a new remote and I had an unused copy of Tiger lying around after giving up on my old iBook G3. (Before people ask how I got a boxed version of Tiger installed on an Intel machine, I didn't, I hooked up the MacBook's hard drive to my Mac Pro, installed OS X from the recovery disks for that and bob's your uncle, fanny's your aunt it worked - I'm just using the spare license I have from my retail boxed copy of Tiger).

I'd prefer something within the UK although if shipping's not too bad I could go for something from further afield. Its not like they're going to charge me a lot of Duty Tax or VAT on a box after all!!

I have one from a 1.83GHz CD stock model and I don't much mind letting the recovery disks go if the price is right, I don't use 10.4 any more so I think it'd be legal too. How much did you have in mind?

Ohh I don't know, haven't put that much thought into it really. £20 + shipping??

That's cool. I'll probably still be interested and I'll be heading up to London pretty regularly from about that time too anyway. :)
