This is the third supposedly refurbished MacBook Pro 2019 that has been sent to me in the last 6 months here in Australia and all have had an issue which has forced me to return for either repairs or refund. Not sure they are actually refurbishing these computers or just passing them along. This is so opposite to what I've experienced from Back Market in the US. Very disappointed to date for having spent so much time and money trying to get a working computer. First one had a faulty keyboard, second one had a malfunctioning bass speaker and third one overheats when shut down and connected to a charger. In process now of returning for repair or refund this latest one. So sorry to have to give a less than satisfactory review.

Light signs of wear. The body may have light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

The function of the macbook is excellent, keyboard/screen/speakers have no faults. Specs were correct. There was some minor rough edges on the corners and some old stickers have blemished the case, commonly used keys a little worn down, so, I would call overall condition "good" to "very good" but maybe not excellent. Will buy again from Black Market. I am happy with the purchase.

Having worked with the unit, I want to say the quality of the computer exceeds my expectations. I am very impressed with the professionalism of the supplier Pre-Owned, in terms of packing and including a complimentary cover. I will be purchasing more things through you from them.

Great price on the laptop, I'm assuming the price was low because you can see faded stickers on the unit. However that doesn't bother me at all, unit in great condition, work great so far, no issues.
