I dunno if this goes in buying tips but i didn't really know where to put it.
So here's the situation. My MBP won't work anymore. Whenever I turn it on the front light thing flashes and the screen won't turn on and it won't boot up. I took it in to our local apple certified retailer who told me after a day that they couldn't fix it cuz the oxidation indicator showed that something may have been accidentaly spilled on it and if they sent it into apple like that apple would declare this and it wouldn't be covered by warranty. They said I had to send it in because that way apple would be less likely to deem it my fault for some reason. However when I called apple they told me I was out of my phone service protection and they had to charge me 49.99 just for them to tell me how to send it in and then it would cost more once I actually sent it in. They don't know about the oxidation and I'm still under warranty (it's only been 9 months) so i don't understand why that guy would say it would cost for them to fix it.
Basically I just want to know if theres any way for me to send in my computer to apple without being charged fifty bucks for them to tell me how to send it in. I'm willing to pay for the repair itself if they deem it my fault.
