cheapest place to buy a macbook?

[Nes.Diaz]

OK so im looking for a macbook either 2010 or 2009 or mid2009
also what are main differences between them?

I know that the macbook might come out soon so ill wait for all prices to go down but where would be the cheapest place online? I dont mind refurb

Thanks

Apple refurb would be the cheapest obviously. The specs are different in all of them. Google it.

It's not technically purchasing online but craigslist will probably get you the beat price. But of course apple refurbs have a full year warranty and wouldn't be too much more (dep on model and what kind of deal you found on cl).

Many sellers on craigslist expect just way too much for their used MacBooks. I would go with a refurb if I were you.

go for a refurb , as you get a "cheaper" MacBook but with full apple warranty
while on craiglist or ebay or other sites like it you get for the same price and some are even asking more for the MacBook that just left warranty , the main reason why people sell their MacBooks .. to get the cash for a new one some even manage to sell their 1 year old MacBook on ebay for more then they initially bought it for and that is now out of warranty
so you are really better of with a apple refurbished

here in the uk with high prices anyways , its not worth to bid on a Mac thats not at least 4 years old , because the difference to a apple refurbished is really marginal before the Mac's get really age , just because buyers and sellers lose every sense of reality when it comes to used Mac's

Another vote here for the refurb store.
Unless newegg.com happens to get one in stock.

Apple refurb or get the new MacBook Air.

+1.
That's definitely the best route.
