Apple Launches 2018 Back to School Promotion: Free Beats With Select Mac or iPad Pro Models

Do you think it's possible to return the headphones and get a refund?

I don't really need them, but their price was deducted from the Macbook Pro, so I took the offer. So if I can return them and get the full price, it's a win

I don't see any restrictions in the terms of the offer? https://www.apple.com/promo/pdf/EN_US_BTS_070518.pdf

Just ordered an MBP and also got the headphone promotion - the headphones has already been sent and will arrive tomorrow, the laptop is still being processed.

Protip: Dr Dre doesn't even use "his" own headphones for either casual listening or music production, he uses Sony V6 headphones like many professionals - and myself included as I own a 1st gen pair purchased in 1986 that I still own - and tossing some chip in 'em which further colors the audio is not a tenable solution or excuse either.

But thanks for playing...

Your point? I never said the Sonys weren't better, and in fact, I agree with you. But you seem to be arguing that anything less than "the best" sucks, and that simply isn't true. Besides that, your entire argument is silly because you're comparing wired headphone to wireless. Of course the Sonys will be better.

Furthermore, my argument had to do with the price to build the Beats. Saying it should cost $15 is just ridiculous.

You can keep your snide "thanks for playing" BS to yourself. Let me know when you're capable of making a discussion without childish closing statements and sarcastic emojis.

This promo and the April Education event show that Apple under Cook has abandoned its commitment to education.

Just curious if you were successful with the return, as I'm contemplating the same thing myself.

I called Apple and the response was that if I return the headphones, the price of the macbook will be increased accordingly. So basically I got the headphones for free but the amount was specified on the invoice in a different way, by accounting reasons.

I agree, the way the receipt appears as that they are separate line items and that the headphones were charged at full price. I have airpods and powerbeats3, I'm going to head into the local store and see if they would be willing to exchange the beats headphones for all the new USBc cables and dongles that I've quickly realized I'll need if I want to have the same experience that I had with my 2014 15"mbpr.
