Hi,
So, there’s a local guy selling 2020 M1 Macbook Air. Upon checking with Apple, it has AppleCare+ Warranty until 2024. The seller doesn’t mention this. He doesn’t have box. Everything looks and works good he says.

He looks legit but I don’t understand why he doesn’t say the AppleCare +. Can he remove this after my purchase?

What is up with people selling AppleCare for $25 on Ebay?

Isn’t this AppleCare+ worth $200?
 
OK. I bought the MB Air. Before the purchase, I confirmed with Apple the remaining balance of the standard limited warranty if the seller cancelled the AppleCare+. I was told it would still have warranty until October 28th, 2022! As of now, I currently have warranty until Oct 2024! And the guy said it had no warranty. I have no idea why.

The guy is definitely legit. He just couldn’t use it because some of his software wouldn’t work on M1.

Hope the warranty stays until 2024?

Yeah, I wouldn’t have purchased if Apple didn’t confirm it has a limited warranty until Oct, 2022. The 2024 is a gamble but for the price I paid, it is well worth to take my chances.
 
IMO, I didn’t get a killer deal for a used Mac Air BUT with Applecare+, it is a killer deal. I could have brand new Macbook Air during holidays for $800 including tax but this is a better deal IMO. This thing is like new (not a hair on it).
 
I almost always buy my electronics used unless it doesn’t make sense to buy used. Same with cars. No need to lose 10% the minute you buy.
 
That killer deal is only going to be one if the seller transfers his AppleCare+ plan over to you. Otherwise you might end up not being able to take advantage of it because it's in the wrong name.

Yeah but I didn’t plan on buying one with Applecare+. That’s just a bonus. If it doesn’t work, I am still happy with my purchase. It is lot less than $1K. Still better than $800.
