Brand new, still in packaging.

I have one and love it. This extra one was for my sister but her school upgraded her to a MBP. This is a great dust collector btw! But I hope that it can be used for its main purpose ;)

Asking $18 shipped firm.

How does it compare to the InCase sleeves that seem to be popular?

Are you in Gainesville? Would you charge less if it was picked up?

Thanks!

I actually got to see/touch/caress (:p) an InCase sleeve my friend got from the Apple Store in Orlando. The InCase is soft and also provides protection. What is different is that the case I'm selling has (looks thin but is thick) memory foam. The InCase may seem thicker but since it doesn't have memory foam, it needs to be thicker to absorb the same amount of shock a thinner memory foam sleeve absorbs.
The only other difference is the :apple: logo :D

If you're in Gainesville, you can check out mine before buying it. I can let it go for $15 local (which is about $7 less than what I paid for).

So you think this one is better than the Incase? Is there a brand name on it? Interesting to know about the difference in thickness.

I'm not in Gainesville now, but I will be this weekend....but I'm not sure if I'll buy it. $15 is alot to a college student :) (and I might have just found a good deal on a truck topper, which I have been looking for for a while)

I could not find a tag/brand name on the sleeve. I'd be bias if I said this was better than the InCase. I haven't tried the InCase long enough to make a decision.

I don't have a need to sell this ASAP so I'm going to stay firm on my pricing for now. Black InCase sleeves are more than twice as expensive (not including tax) because they're exclusively sold from Apple.

Also, if you have a white Macbook, you may want to stay away from the black InCase sleeves. It leaves dark marks on the Macbook.

Oh, your price is fine, don't think twice about dropping it!

What are your thoughts on this case with a white macbook?

Couldn't tell you cause I have a blackbook :D. But I do know someone that has the same sleeve and she has a white Macbook. I will ask her whenever I get the chance.

EDIT:
I just asked and she has no issues with this sleeve and a white Macbook. :)
