hi all,

I'm buying a macbook pro 15" 2.2 tomorrow. I'm buying it from a guy( i never met him) price is ok..
he said that he bought it from US 2 months ago and never opened it..i saw the pictures tho..looks brand new or is it..can you check the box for me..sealing etc.. http://www.sahibinden.com/acil_0_ga...WQQaXQQ4829203WQQpXQQdisplayitem?keyword=acil

He says it comes with Tiger( there was no leopard when he bought it )
And i asked him if its glossy or matte, he said " i think it's glossy " :p how can i be sure without opening the box..When did they release glossy ones ?
i need some tips..
thank you

The tip is don't hand over your money till you've tested the product but that all looks dodgy to me.
 
Well the guy has a electronics shop..i'll go to his place...But he doesnt sell computers..
 
I would open it and check the serial number on apple.com before you give him any money....if it's older than he says (meaning it has less warranty) offer him a lower price.
