2012 rMBP or Maxed 2011 cMBP?

[Steve.P.JobsFan]

I found these two systems on eBay. The rMBP is bid-only and is currently at $1,300. The cMBP is Buy-It-Now at $1,300; but the seller is willing to take a lower offer. I'm wanting to try and go for the rMBP cause it's retina (ooh, shiny), and it has an SSD, discrete graphics, plus six months more AC. But HD3000 is fine for Team Fortress 2, so discrete isn't a must, plus I can upgrade RAM and the HDD to an SSD.

Thoughts?

rMBP:
15-inch, Mid-2012
2.3GHz Quad-core i7
8GB RAM
256GB Flash
HD 4000 + GT650M
AppleCare until June 2015


cMBP:
15-inch, Late-2011
2.5GHz Quad-core i7
8GB RAM
750 GB HDD (7200RPM)
HD3000 512 MB
Anti-glare display + upgraded 1680x1050 resolution
SuperDrive
AppleCare until December 2014

I am not super familiar with the 2011 but that unit should have a dGPU and it also is the hi-res screen so it certainly has the dGPU.

but i would retina or my local bby was selling of classic 15 2012 stock for 1399. Forget the 2011 and find a 2012.
