Hello
I was on eBay and stumbled across the exact model of the MBP I have been wanting to get for a long while: Apple MacBook Pro 15" Hi Res Glossy - i7- 2.66 Ghz on eBay.ca (item 320630897857 end time 12-Jan-11 23:38:54 EST)
This also comes with Logic Pro 9, and Final Cut Studio 3, Office 2011, and VMWare with Windows 7, which is a real plus.
With shipping, it'll come to about $2600. If I were to buy it from the online Apple store, it'll come to about $2600 after taxes, but doesn't come with the software mentioned above. So the difference is about $800 worth of software, and although I don't necessarily need any of that software, I would find myself using most of those programs frequently.
Is it worth it? Should I take the risk buying from eBay?
