Hey all. Looking to get a refurbished 2015 rMBP 13 inch at micro center. Hoping it's actually apple refurbished. They are an authorized apple reseller since 1987. This refurb model has one year manufacturer warranty plus you can get apple care for it in the store as well from date of purchase (which makes me feel hopefully it's apple certified refurb) and someone on reddit mentioned if it has manufacturer warranty it probably is legit apple refurbished

Anyone have experience with refurbished macs from micro center?
 
I feel you can buy AppleCare for it than the item is legit Apple. Shouldn't have any issues with it. Buy the AppleCare if you want piece of mind.
 
Over the years I have bought a couple of refurbished Macs from Micro Center, and have had no issues at all. I did add Apple Care, but Micro Center also offers a different protection plan that is more coverage for less money. I have had very good luck with Micro Center, and they're definitely my favorite computer store.
