    Apple's refurbished stuff is great. It has the same warranty as new.

    I bought an MBA two years ago. As far as I could tell, it was like new but for the fact that I paid less.

    I've had several refurbished MacBooks/Pros, never had a problem with them or their warranties.

    so there would be no scratches on it or anything?

    if something were to go wrong... apple would help me even without applecare?

    While I didn't have a new MBA before, I noticed no scratches. You'd swear it was new. It would be treated the same way as any other product under warrantee

    I ordered a refurb iPad this week. I was surprised to learn that its being shipped from China. If the refurb was a store return, I would assume they would refurbish it at a depot in the US. Leading me to believe this could be new from the factory.
