I have seen it quite frequently from Apple Online Store USA, they sell those refurbished macbooks but with 1 year warranty. But i never seen it from Machines or Apple online Store Malaysia YET, just a question, can we buy from USA store instead of Malaysia's?

Singapore, Hong Kong and China got Refurbished apple products.
U only can buy from the respective country only. The reason Y m'sia do not have refurbished unit b'coz Malaysia do not have Apple assembly line/factory/warehouse. ( correct me if wrong ) |

Machines have some refurbished products. look under 'promotion' page
the catch is, the warranty is slightly shorter than 1 year. |

@masahito
Apple power adapters have been auto-switching, with both USA & UK plugs... since 2005  @JCvendetta Apple Online Store will only ship to the local country (eg USA will not ship even to Canada / Mexico, Malaysia store will not ship to Indonesia / Singapore(. Also, Apple Online Store requires local credit card to process payment... if you have further questions, you can get accurate & immediate replies about Apple Online Store from 1800-80-6419 (Apple Online Store - Malaysia) |

erm.. correction for you
during last couple month, Apple provides service for the online store to ship international, but only certain country with certain online store, not sure apply for all product or not if you get machine from state, you might hav to buy 3-pin plug head again. cuz it's not included, same to Japan's macs. |

if you have a faulty Mac, Apple usually replaces the faulty part. even if its 2 or 3 parts...
AFAIK, you'd have to trust them that you're getting a *new* unit replacement... that's not guaranteed under the terms & conditions of the warranty ... |

Try ebay. Some sellers sell refurbished apple products. I got my refurbished iMac from uk through ebay. Another way is buy from US or those countries that have Apple store that sell refurbished items using vpost or similar services.

well, if it's within the first couple months, may be sounds unfair, but after half of years, you computer consider old

Instead of creating new thread, decide to post here.
I plan to buy refurbished MacBook from Singapore. Aside from not having the latest spec, what other downside to this that can arise? Warranty? |
