Wanted:

MacBook. Air? Pro? I don't know really, I'm not an apple fan but my wife insists on wasting money so meh. Shoot me a pm with details and price, we'll go from there.

Looking for a LOW cost iphone 6/6+ for the MIL. Cheap is key, don't need a lot of bells and whistles. Hoping to pick one up on the cheap from an upgrader.

Might consider another lower cost Apple Watch as well.

Also, Copy/Pasta from my old thread:
Pokemon fever has hit my household, need iTunes credit. 80% off is pretty common on slickdeals, so i'm shooting for 60-70% off based on amount and refs. Shoot me a PM though if you have any and we'll discuss it.

Heatware is listed under gillbot of course.

I don't know the first thing about them. Their specs? Pros, cons, upgradeable? Details man....... You could be Steve jobs' son for all I care, doesn't mean squat to me.

Sounds like I shouldn't buy one from you. Others have been very open on the pros and cons of their units. At least they take the time to explain. Glws.

Why don't you include some useful information such as battery cycle and SSD total work time . Otherwise, appearance look new doesn't mean anything because those laptops are at least 3+ years old. Besides, the price you are asking for those laptops are at least 50-150 dollars more than EBay.

He's not serious about selling or he'd answer questions. MANY other sellers have taken time to explain the pros and cons of their units, he just wants someone to grab them without him having to do effort.

last TTT before I just bite the bullet and go to MicroCenter. At least they'll talk to me about them even if it does cost more. FWIW though, I've been advised by a GOOD friend that a mid-2012 w/ ivy is probably what I should be hunting for. Though the wife would probably like an Air due to "cuteness", but we'll see what is out there.

Haha! If SO MANY sellers have answered questions, what more do I have to offer? There is a website, apple.com, that will give you all the info you need. Also, I gave you the justification about why you should buy from me, guess that didn't involve that much effort. Send me a PM with actual questions and I will answer them.

First PM to me from Gillbot: "Sell me one. Give the reasons I should buy one of these as opposed to the others here."

Where are the questions?

They have answered questions about THEIR item being sold, which you have not done. You give the generic "I'm awesome and apple is awesome" reply.

Since you can't read, I'll quote it again.

Since you seem bent on trying to smear me now, i'll go ahead and post your PM reply which doesn't tell much except reinforces what i've already said. YAY APPLE WOO HOO!

PM reply from rw3 "If you're looking for justification then I'm the wrong person to buy from. Apple is Apple. They hold their value longer, seemingly last longer, and you won't find a $400 PC laptop that has PCIe SSD that reads over 1Gbps, just isn't going to happen. You also won't find one that lasts 5+ hours on battery."

Typical ZERO info response so as I said, INFORM ME. Think my wife cares about 1Gbps? Think she cares about it holding value? No. Apple is apple? What??

If you care not to give relevant information and help, GLWS. I'll buy her a sub-$400 PC that can't do 1Gbps and it'll probably run facebook just fine.

It is a shame though as I believe she was wanting an Air but at this rate it seems i'd be better off going to eBay or the Apple store.
 
Wow. What do you want from this guy? Do you want to buy a MacBook or not? Do your own research. Sounds like he was a lot more patient with you than I would have been. Your entire post reminds me of this.




And prices seem pretty fair compared to eBay completed listings I saw although I agree it would be nice to have a bit more info (battery cycle count) and pics.
 
Cool story bro, add me to your DNT list and walk away. Peace out.
 
Just so everyone is clear: Gillbot and I are good. We talked it out today. Think he has a good solution in mind.
