4.2/5I have used Black Market previously and for the first time I can’t give a 5 star review. the MacBook has a chip on the side of the casing that shows both sides of the screen bezel - to me this doesn’t qualify for excellent condition. In all other regards usual excellent delivery, high quality product fully restored and good to go on the current MacOS.

4.6/5I was quite happy with it. Although it is a "fair" laptop it came in pretty good conditions.

4.2/5Produit en bon état et SAV réactif. Dommage d'avoir été obligé de passer par un retour à l'envoyeur et de perdre plus d'une semaine sur l'envoi simplement parce que le chargeur fourni n'était pas le bon...

2.4/5My device arrived super early but my joy was cut short too soon. Usually “good” looks very good so I was expecting that but the device looks noticeably used from outside. It took hours to charge only to be frustrated while trying to set it up. Normal click function not working, figuring out how to use keyboard for everything was emotionally taxing. My dream of owning a MacBook ended here. Battery always at zero% when charger removed. Support was great even though it was the holidays. A star for support.

1/5Appalled in all honesty. Battery needs replacing and a green flash is always constantly occurring on the laptop unprovoked. After 2 days of use I am having to send this back for a replacement. I assume it needs a new battery.
