Hello guys,
I bought a MacBook Pro 2019 15" this week from an online seller (individual). It came with everything in it and I made sure everything was correct. (dates/serials/warranty coverage)
The person who sold it to me said one of his businesses clients bought it at Apple Directly, and he would provide a receipt when he got it from them. Unfortunately it turns out it was purchased in a retail store, but is an official Apple reseller. He promised the receipt but said his client could not find it back. I know for sure it has been sold between 1 - 17 July 2019 at an official Apple Reseller. I do not know the exact store or purchase date, but DO know it was a legit purchase from a reseller.. The retail store won't provide any help because of 'buyer privacy' - even though I just ask for a copy without any private information on it. The serial must be on the receipt, so I can technically show them I own the device.
I was able to purchase AppleCare+ directly from Apple yesterday, since the machine is new. However, in the proof of AppleCare+ e-mail It states: "We may ask you to show the original receipt for your Apple product with every repair or incident"
So in short: I have a proof of AppleCare+ until July 2022, I have the receipt for Applecare+, but I do not have the original MacBook Pro receipt.
In all of these years I've bought most MacBooks directly from Apple Stores and they have NEVER asked me for a MBP receipt. What do you guys think, could this cause trouble?
