Buying Tips Before You Pay
- Check the RAM and storage twice. The same model name can come with different RAM or storage sizes, so read the full listing carefully.
- Ask about the battery health. A good seller will tell you the battery condition before you buy, especially on older MacBooks.
- Confirm the keyboard layout. Some UK-used laptops have a slightly different key layout, which some buyers prefer to know in advance.
- Test before you leave. Turn the laptop on, check the screen, keyboard, and ports before you walk away with it.
- Ask about warranty. Get the warranty period in writing or on WhatsApp chat for your own record.
