Are you saying we are able to return our Mac's without having a power brick?

Well, I was able to. I have no idea whether this is universal. I had it with me but the person who did the trade never asked for it and I didn't even think of it until I got home (3 hour drive).

So my saga continues… In a good way! As I posted earlier, my 16” M1 Max/64GB/4TB had its delivery window changed from November 3-10 to 10-17 to 12-19 and was still processing. Contacting Apple CS turned out to be very productive. When I first contacted them, they acknowledged production and shipping delays, said it would ship soon. Then seeing how my delivery date had slid twice they tried to find one in store inventory or destined for stock that was the same or close match, I needed the 16” Max w/64GB but would take other storage options or silver vs space grey. No luck there.

…But then I got a follow up email from the customer service guy I was talking to. Letting me know that I’ll have a shipping notice in the next couple hours. I figured, hey that’s cool, but I wasn’t expecting what else I got. I received an email confirming my new Apple order for a 16” MBP just as I had configured and another email confirming the cancelation of my original order. And a shipment notice for the new order! Anyway it’s weird, but my account is showing the new MBP order as shipped and I have a tracking number. Not yet scanned by FedEx, but I’m viewing this as real progress. I’m also assuming that something about my order was funky, hence why it was canceled and replaced with a new order in the system. Or perhaps this is a unit that was destined for stock inventory and they had to create a new order to grab it for me. Hmmm.. Now I can join the rest of you fine people who are watching FedEx tracking. Yay.

That's amazing!! Congrats!!! 🎉🎉🥳🥳

‘FN’ on the keyboard is the emoji shortcut. Works really well. 😁

Thanks! I use that, but it's a lot slower to type multiples... I'll get over it quickly enough lol

Again, there is a distinction between TRADEIN vs RETURN. Have you bought it, paid in full and doing a TRADEIN on your next upgrade several years down the road? Or, are you doing a RETURN and asking for a refund.

With all the problems UPS has recently experienced, I want to take a moment to give them a huge shoutout for caring above and beyond! I sold something expensive through Facebook Marketplace. Payment through PayPal. Shipped it Next Day Air ($195.00) requested and paid for by buyer.

I found out at 9:00 am today that I was scammed. That every PayPal communication I had received was fake. In a complete meltdown, after a hysterical call with PayPal, I contacted UPS. The package was on the truck, out for delivery. The several people I spoke with up the chain were amazing. They managed to contact the driver and stop the delivery. The UPS store I shipped the package from was also amazing and has arranged for the package to be returned to me and it’s on its way back. So many good and kind UPS people to balance the (expletive) bad scammer.

You are probably right but you have to be a contributor for that don't you?

Not sure to be honest 🤔

Maybe someone here knows if you have to be a contributor or not.
