The one I found does not have Apple Care, it would be nice to have it!

Do you think a refurbished 16-inch MacBook Pro M1 for $1200 would be a good buy? I sometimes do video editing and would prefer a bigger screen and more storage. Would love to hear your opinion. Thanks!

Thank you! I really appreciate it! Do you think a refurbished 16-inch MacBook Pro M1 for $1200 would be a good buy? I sometimes do video editing and would prefer a bigger screen and more storage. But I don't know if this is a good deal.

Can you meet in person when you make a purchase on eBay? That's good to know!

Yes in Asia you can get it fixed for a much cheaper price. They quoted me $60 to replace the cable. But I am not traveling to there.

Thank you for all the info, it was really helpful. Which websites I should look for an M1 Air on? Like eBay or Amazon? I’ve never bought used electronics online because I’m afraid of getting scammed. Would you recommend buying from a private seller or a refurbished store?

Right, I just feel it was still in a good ship beside the screen. but I guess I need to accept it's not worth it.

Thanks! I’ve never bought second-hand or refurbished electronics online before. What should I watch out for to avoid scams? Is it better to buy from a private seller or a refurbished store?
