UK website stocks MacBook Pro refurbs

I try never to pay full price for a computer. For a while, I shopped for used gear on eBay or Craigslist. But after a few disappointing exchanges, I now focus on established companies that offer items that are refurbished - not just used - and come with a good guarantee and return policy.

The UK-based Tech Trade fits that profile and looks like a good source for anyone in that region who wants to buy a refurbished Macbook Pro.

The website lists nine different MacBook Pro models sorted by age, specs and price. When I checked, it offered a MacBook Pro with a 13.3-inch display, an i7 processor, 4 GB of RAM and a 500 GB hard drive for £649.

Tech Trade’s laptops come with a 12-month guarantee and the option to return any item for a full refund within 14 days after the sale. I don’t think I’ve seen terms that generous from any refurb source in the US.

The company also offers free 10-day shipping or next-day shipping for £10.

You can see the current inventory at the Tech Trade website where you can also create an account and a wish list to be notified when an item you want is available.
