I got an open box deal at a local electronics retailer. The box was opened but the computer was sealed. It's the current 13 inch model md313ll/a.

I got a $1200 computer for $700.

I am not sure whether I want to keep it or not since new ones are going to most likely be announced.

Any thoughts?

You should be able to sell it yourself for more than you paid if you don't want/need it.

Because it was cheap and I can return it if I didn't want it.

I think you should just sell it to me for $500 and call it a day.... but my recommendation may be biased.

Surely you can sell it elsewhere for at least 800? I wouldn't return it

Great deal, keep it. Even with the new ones coming out I don't see these dropping that low.
