Hello All,
I was just wondering where one stands as regards ownership & with Apple with regards to buying a Macbook pro from private parties who cannot supply the original sales receipt?
I have seen a couple of deals elsewhere (& am very aware of the scammers etc) but the main thing is I want to ensure that there will be no future issues down the road.
How does one ensure that the item is legal, not stolen, reported as lost etc? I find it odd that many people cannot find or supply the original sales receipt with such important purchases?
I have found a deal on a certain website (on which I can usually spot scammers) & found a deal where by I was able to speak to the seller (a good sign I suppose) in person & he stated as he buys & sells things, he bought the Macbook Pro from private party & cannot supply the receipt. I just want to ensure that anything I get is legal.
I notice many people buy MacBooks from each other here on the forums and am wondering what the official transfer of ownership situation is as far as Apple is concerned if the original sales receipt is not provided?
Many Thanks!
