Things to know about a used Mac:
- We pre-install the Operating System the unit originally shipped with, upgraded to the highest possible version, per Apple's guidelines and restrictions. If a different OS is desired or required, please contact one of our sales representatives, as sometimes the OS upgrade paths can be tricky or less than obvious. OS upgrades and books can be found here as well.
- OS restore discs are not included with the Mac, but may be purchased separately.
- Used laptops are sold with used batteries, but ones that we've tested to hold a charge during normal use for 60-90 minutes. The performance and longevity of batteries will vary significantly depending on what the computer is doing as well as a number of other factors, and cannot be determined or predicted solely by looking at charging cycles. We do recommend that you consider purchasing a new battery as a back-up if you're going to be using the laptop for extended periods without being plugged in.
- The warranty can be extended to six months for only $69.95.
- If you're not familiar with this specific model of Mac, it's a good idea to check the System Requirements for the software you will be using.
Our guarantee:
- Our Pre-Owned MacBook Pros come with a 90 day warranty and two additional guarantees: First, if it arrives and isn't working as it should, we'll pick it up (does not apply to in-store or will call orders) and replace it at our expense (some conditions apply). Second, if at any time in the first 90 days of the purchase of a pre-owned Mac you wish to trade it in, we will guarantee you the FULL purchase price value you paid toward the purchase of anything else we sell. You can't lose with us!

Why People Like You Chose Powermax
Thanks for all the information, it is a great help. I will let you know how it all comes out - and may have to ask you for some more help. I appreciate your consideration - actually this is the way I have been treated by everyone I have worked with at PowerMax. I wouldn't buy a Mac anyplace else. This is my second one from PowerMax.
- Take care,

BIG kudos to your company for shipping to APOs. I love Apple and all their products, but their lack of support to Service Members deployed and stationed overseas has been a sore point with me for a long time!!! It is refreshing to find a company that understands that Soldiers in Iraq (and Afghanistan, and Germany, and Japan, etc.) deserve easy access to Macs as well as anyone else.
- Thank you for your help.
- Balad, Iraq
Just wanted to thank you for the personal service. I appreciate that you called me on my credit card problem, and have kept me updated on the status of my order. I place orders on line several times a month, and sometimes customer service is lacking.
- Thank you, again.
