I am looking at purchasing a refurb rMBP. I was wondering if there is a major difference in the June 2012 model vs the Feb 2013 model. I know a lot of the original rMBP had screen issues but if its refurb I would hope that's not an issue.

I guess there's still a chance you'd wind up with an early LG retina display on a 2012 refurb, but you could always exchange it. i think *most* of the problem displays with bad image retention issues are out of the supply chain now.

Otherwise, the differences between the two versions are negligible. 2012 gets the nod as the Bargain Hunter's Choice®.
