I'm interested in a MacBook Pro, and was going to get one in the US, when I realised that they are so much cheaper on eBay.
E.g.:
2.3GHz 15" rMPB = £2,199 on Apple store. Or, £1,549 on eBay (link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380935225155 )
That's a saving of £650 for what looks like just a couple of symbol changes on the keyboard (they're US imports). What I don't understand, is, how are these US imports to the UK cheaper than if I were to go buy the equivalent model in the US? Also, these are 'shipped from UK' so there will be no extra customs tax.
I'm really interested in this offer but I'm not sure if this is a scam or not - yes, 2 have already been sold and the seller has over 38k 99% reviews, but this deal seems too good to be true.
Does anyone have experience buying a MacBook new and cheap from eBay?
Would you recommend me doing it?
Thanks a lot!
