my experience to share for anyone looking to do trade in.
my model:- macbook pro 2017 (i5, dual core, 256GB SSD, 8GB RAM)
plan to get : m1 macbook air
1.Switch - Quayside Mall , Rimbayu
- did not offer trade in for macbook
So advise to go popular shopping mall
2. Try Machines @ Sunway Pyramid
Yes - trade in available. Accoding to them, they offer trade in for 2015 or latest model
Initial price before checking faulty is RM1.1k
3. Try Switch @ Sunway Pyramid
Yes - trade in available.
Final Price - RM880
All shop only got M1 Macbook Air - 256GB Gold color. According to them, price dropped for trade in is lower is due to M2 released last month. Before M2, my unit trade in is RM1.5k
My unit is working fine.
They will minus for every small scratch on surface (back/front/ etc)
Display panel rubber on side
top where keyboard panel, they check side (got little dark due to dust/ try to clean). Give me an excuse side cannot clean which i hardly cannot see it.
Lastly i decided to abort the trade in as not worth it.
The 2017 Macbook pro is still working fine, battery life (replaced a new one 1 1/2 year ago is still great and not faulty)
Switch & Machines got no promotion - RM4399.
Will continue to use till it die and buy new one online with possible cheaper on 11/11 or 12/12 sale.
With this unit still can support MacOS Ventura this year, no hurry to change it.
May be M3 next year will be my target.
That's all my experience & hope this benefit to those want to do trade in
put on carousell, mudah and FB market place ... you can fetch higher price
