    I’ve ordered from Zaltova before and while can say it wasn’t a perfect experience I got what I paid for at the time. It was a MacBook Pro 2017 and was ordered in 2021. It was listed as fair but shipped to me looking brand new. But right after a year the logic board went out. I was hesitant to do it again but I decided to give it another go. This time I chose a MacBook Pro M1 Pro. It was listed as excellent. I needed it quickly so I paid for next day shipping. I ordered it Tuesday afternoon it came Friday evening. I guess that’s how 48hrs works in shipping. When it arrived it was packed very well. I thought I received the wrong one at first. It was black. Then I noticed it was in a protective case. I thought, ‘oh wow a free case’. Then I said wait let’s see if it’s covering something up. I took off the case to find a near perfect machine. There was one fine hairline scratch on the top of the MacBook. Other than that it was perfect. The keyboard even had this super soft keyboard protector. It’s not great for late night when you want to use the backlit keyboard but it’s still a great keyboard protector. It also came with an older Mac charger and a MagSafe wire. Luckily I had 96w Apple charger that’s almost brand new and it works great with the magsafe. This store out did itself. I’ve been running Logic Pro and testing its limits. This thing can cook. It’s the 10 core 16 gpu with 16gb of ram and 1tb storage. I haven’t heard a fan turn on once. It performs really well. I honestly wish I could have gotten more ram now. I’ve never mixed a full record at 256 on the buffer without getting a crash from my previous MacBook. Third party plugins use a lot of resources but it takes them like a champ. It’s made mixing so much more enjoyable. If you are on the fence about buying refurbished try the excellent variety. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

    Originally received a MacBook Air M1 2020 in Fair condition. Screen had the “stage light issue” so I sent it back. Got a replacement that looks literally nearly perfect and has an 88% battery health. I’m impressed! Zaltova was very helpful through all of this as well.
