so i am planning to take advantage of the lovely microcenter $999 deal. the thing is my dad is paying for it and thus he will be buying one for me and my sister.now the limit is 1 MBP- but is it one MBP per person or per transaction?

in other words, can i use two different credit cards to get 2 MBP's from microcenter? or would i need two people?
 
I would say the 2 credit cards and two people would cover it ... you should be good to go, just bring your sister along.

can one person two credit cards work? my mom is using her credit card, and my sister's CC is a bit, how shall i put it- she doesnt have enough $ in her account

so what should be done?

My guess is they do not want Dealers buying several to resell for profit.

If your Mom tells them she is buying as Christmas gifts for her kids ... maybe they will not be all scrooge like and oblige her. There are other ways around this. Go buy 1 and then have a relative or close neighbour buy the other and have Mom transfer the funds over to the relative.

Good luck and Merry Christmas
