Just got the computer. Met the person at the Apple store and got a Genius to take a look at it. I booked 3 appointments sequentially just in case (45 minutes). The Genius ran some tests, checked the battery, power cable, and such, and the MBA came back A+.

Physically, the machine is pristine, nothing wrong there from my perspective or the Genius who took a look at it.

The MBA also came with some unexpected extras, such as a nice Incase sleeve (a nicer one than the one people usually buy), and a USB ethernet adapter.

Overall, I couldn't be happier with the purchase. For $950, it was a steal IMO.

Thanks all again.

Congrats on your new machine shootingrubber!
 
Why would someone want to pay MORE for a used Apple computer than a NEW one. Are people that idiotic?

Yes. Between that and some salesmanship, you'll be surprised what you can get the masses to buy into.
 
I love how nobody batted an eyelid at the first part of that story!

Sounds like your friend got a great deal anyway!

My friend is an amateur photographer. He has a lot of nude pics in his portfolio. As per the deal, it's one of those right place at the right time. I paid 1400 for my 2012 air, and his 400 air looks exactly the same.
