I am still up in the air on what the hell to do about my next laptop.
I have a 2011 11" MBA that is need of upgrading. I was going to go with a 2015 rMB, then waited for that update which was very little however the extra hour of battery life did appeal to me. So now I was all set to get the 2016 rMB, but then the rumors starting pouring in about the rMBP.
I honestly could just deal with a rMB for my needs and even consider a low-end rMB. However I tend to keep my laptops for 4-5 years or longer.
With the rMBP announcement and price gouging that they are pulling has put me in a weird spot. Not only that but a 2016 rMB M5 is $1599 is stupid expensive. So is the rMBP 13" w/ touch bar at $1,799 which I may not even want (still want to check it out though).
I have been checking the apple refrub but they dont have the color combo and processor I want showing up at their store (I will keep checking though).
I have some ebay people offering to sell flawless rMB m5 with apple care and saying there isn't any physical flaws on it. These sellers also have a 100% feedback rating and the price would be a lot cheaper than going through apple refurb.
Has anyone bought from a trusted ebay seller and had any luck?
