Here is a link to a recent craigslist posting for a top of the line 15" macbook pro with lots of extras for only $1900! Seems to good to be true to me. What do you guys think?

Well if it too good to be true then it is by logic false

Claims that it is still in box and untouched. Wrote an email but haven't heard back yet. Did you see those extras? Alone they are worth 1900

How many times do we have to say this, gang?

ANY NEW MAC DISCOUNTED MORE THAN 5% IS A SCAM.

I'll be wrong on that statement about 0.1% of the time, I admit, but it is simple as this - Apple's wholesale price to their best dealers is 4% - 7% off retail on the CPUs (a bit more on selected accessories) so any deep discounted "new" machine is either - not new, stolen, or non-existent.

Also, stop and think a moment. If it is unopened in the box, how does it come with $4000 worth of pirated software?

Macromedia Studio 8
Intego VirusBarrier X4
GarageBand Jam Pack: World Music
Final Cut Studio 5.1 Universal
DVD Studio Pro 4
Adobe Creative Suite 2 - Premium

MacBook Pro also includes these applications:

• FileMaker Pro
• QuickBooks for Mac New User Edition
• Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac

These are not included by Apple.

Now, the seller has proven they are willing to lie and steal by offering pirated software with their sale. Why would you imagine they would cheat Apple, Microsoft and Adobe but not cheat you?

C'mon...
