Looking to purchase an Air from an online retailer. If it's damaged or defective upon receipt can I swap it out at an Apple store or do I have to return to the retailer? Thanks in advance!
 
Only if you're buying it from Apple Store online - not just any online retailer.
 
If you bought it from Apple.com, you can return it for a refund to a local Apple retail store.

If you bought it from a third party (e.g. Best Buy, Staples) you cannot return to the Apple store for a refund, but may be able to get a genius bar swap (although these are supposedly remanufactured units).
