I Bought the CHEAPEST Macbook Retina 12 Inch In the World Its GOLD! (not from ebay)

Computers are one of our biggest expenses when it comes to electronics but I am trying to show the world different ways of saving and making money, especially on apple macbooks. This was the cheapest macbook retina in the world at $500, only 1 model behind the current, and the top tier for that year. INSANE! On top of it, its the gold 12 inch retina macbook, value is probably closer to $800.

Thanks for watching! 🙏

I use the Macbook Pro 15 2013 like yours. I got it from a pawn store in 2015 for $300. It was stuck in an update, and they couldn't fix it. It turns out their internet was to slow to complete the download. I got it home, restarted the restore, and 15 minutes later, new to me Macbook Pro. That 12" is a nice find for sure.

Battery cycle count was 69, I forgot to mention that in the video. Thanks for watching! Go find a deal! =)

I got a 2008 macbook aluminium for £50, needed a new keyboard that was £20 - I fitted it and a 128gb SSD for £30 - 500gb drive relocated where the CD drive used to be. It's not as powerful or slimline as yours but looks like I paid £500 for a computer instead of £100. It runs windows 10 beautifully, even though it's not officially supported, and I'm typing on it right now :)

Wow, awesome deal. I bought my current main camera (Canon 1Ds Mark II) from a pawn shop for less than half price and also pulled a $4k Flir Camera out of the same shop for $700. They retail for like $15k so that was a pretty awesome buy. Pawn shops are very underrated for some great deals if you shop around.

I wanted one of those but I was scared that if my kids looked at too hard it would break. Great deal!

Awesome find, I concur this was a deal. Got the same make and model in 2017 off Craigslist....best place to find a deal like this

I guess the good luck has been going around lately... I picked up a iMac 4K 2017 Model with AppleCare+ until 2021 for only $600 and it is pretty much in flawless condition with original box, keyboard and mouse!

Ok, but but but... how is that butterfly keyboard working out though? Last summer, I bought a "flawless" hardly used 2017 gold 12' (from another vendor), and after a month that 'return" key failed (although I keep it clean).

Plainrock124 would be pissed if he saw this.

I got a 2016 MacBook for 50 bucks. It was on clearance.

I got the same computer in space grey for $800 in late June of 2016, the previous owner didn't like it I guess and barely used it. The only issue that has developed is a few key problems which are typical of all MacBooks from that time. came in the box and tissue/plastic and everything!

A couple months ago, these were selling $600 on EBay. The resale value is way lower than any other MacBook laptop. A first for Apple resellers and owners unloading. Glad I kept away.

I got a MacBook 12 gold for £410 but it's the 2015 1.3 256gb version. Nothing is wrong with it except a scratch on the bottom part which you don't even see

[WalkerLlau]

Wow so lucky :( I just wanna have a MacBook Air in my country (Ecuador) sell the MacBook in $1399, I always said to my cousin who lives there to check the deals of MacBook used but he said that’s difficult, it’s a option to search MacBooks air in 300?

[cathyborgelt]

👍 on the great deal! Were you going to give me advice on the shoes I mentioned last video?

[joeturk]

got mine last week was a 2015 base model but in mint condition, battery count was 37, also paid 500 for it! but I'm in lebanon so I don't have access to eBay unfortunately!! sweet deal you got there anyway

[leisurereseller]

Awesome score. What’s the site you buy cellphones on? Any luck on phones at pawn shops? Looking to upgrade and don’t want to pay full price. Thanks CP.
