EDIT: Per comments, description on the website says "professionally refurbished", though the title explicitly says "BRAND NEW". Unclear, so buyer beware I suppose.

Decent price for a brand new M2 MacBook Air, 16GB. No catches, coupons, eBay Plus, etc. In fact the same product on eBay from HT is $1,165 (-$100 with coupon). Was $1,004 on eBay a week or two ago.

Delivery is reasonable, around $9 to metro Melbourne. Credit/debit card fee applies.

    awesome deal on a brand new MBA 13. I got one for my partner few months ago when it was 900 something. a day to day user will never see difference between this and M4

      These displays do have PWM issues, if you're sensitive, but can be "fixed/reduced" with a better colour profile and "StillColor".

      thanks - given

      the same product on eBay from HT

      and that title page info is

      Apple (BRAND NEW) MacBook Air 13.6in Space Grey M2 (8C CPU/8C GPU)/ 16GB/256GB SSD/30W Adapter

      then it should override product description

      Meet the MacBook Air, completely reimagined around the game-changing M2 chip. This model isn't just an update; it's a revolution in a strikingly thin and light package. This professionally refurbished unit comes with an upgraded 16GB of RAM, turning this ultra-portable laptop into a true multitasking powerhouse.

      which is likely an error, else return/refund

      • Pie21 on 07/09/2025 - 16:27

        To be fair, I'm not 100% sure it's the same stock, just noting that it's the same specs from the same retailer at a higher price, so it looks like a deal. The description is different of course :/.

  • ozvictor on 07/09/2025 - 15:42

      +14

      ACCC is useless most of time.
      Some may neg me. Practical experience is that it only works if the seller has fear of it. If seller denies, ACCC has no authority, they only try to negotiate.

      • BatmanAU on 07/09/2025 - 16:29

        ACCC is a toothless tiger, waste of Taxpayers money funding that place

      • FutureTech on 07/09/2025 - 20:23

        It's more effective in addressing systematic issues and issuing fines to large corporations who don't play by the rules.

        • gtech on 07/09/2025 - 22:39

          Even then it's a stretch (look at car manufacturers,Bunnings, Coles etc) basically they will go for the biggest guy, where they can easy prove wrong doing and at the least amount of effort.
          So if you put all the entities that are shafting the users and then rank them by the criteria above you can see why the likes of MSY get pinged but Ford don't make the cut. (Yet it will take MSY 1000's of transaction to make the same dent that Ford does with half a dozen dodgy gearboxes)
          Personal Opinion of course 😉

    is it worth upgrade M1 to M2 ?
    I've been using M1 air 3years from now

    • nubix on 07/09/2025 - 16:03
      +7

      no, but maybe a cheap way to refresh your warranty and battery

    • shabaka on 07/09/2025 - 17:21
      +2

      I wouldn't bother. difference between M1 and M2 was minimal. the only upgrade would be to M4, but most users won't notice difference unless they edit videos and photos intensively and those users would get a Pro anyway

      plus I actually liked the wedge body of original MBA M1, although now I actually feel like these 13 inch Airs look and feel more modern

    • Shenannigoat on 07/09/2025 - 18:21

      As others have said it depends what you're doing. It's potentially worth it if your M1 has 8GB of RAM.

  • nickel on 07/09/2025 - 16:12

    The description says "refurbished", and all other MacBooks on their site are refurbs. I doubt it is brand new.

    It's still a good price, but be aware what you are getting. Having "brand new" in the title probably gives you a good reason to return it if you decide you don't like it.

    Any possibility to price beat with office works, cheaper and brand new guaranteed.

      Rang my local about 10 before closing and I wasn't even really in the market (bought an m4 for the missus a couple months back anyway) but I love a deal. Website said they had two in stock. Bloke on the phone said matching it shouldn't be a problem, then did a stock check and said they didn't have any. So idk. Maybe he lied. Maybe the stock check did. Either way, try your hand tomorrow, he didn't laugh at the 880 figure so I imagine your local is allowed to go to that price.

        Thanks for the information mate. I just called the head office line, and they said the barcode and warranty aren’t listed on the website, and since it’s a reseller rather than a retailer, they can’t do the price beat at the moment. Maybe someone near a store that has stock could try walking in to see if they’ll approve the price beat.

  • huntingforbargainz on 07/09/2025 - 16:20

    add another $200 and you get a guaranteed brand new Macbook air with the same specifications.

    It's a very good deal of brand new. Those buying, keep a screen shot of the Title. Also pay with PayPal, that way PayPal can help too if not brand new.

          2016 and 2017 non Touch Bar MBP have upgradable ssd. They used a proprietary interface but it was still much cheaper than going though apple. Not a MacBook but the M4 Mac Mini also has an upgradable SSD.

        With upgrade everyday from apple I see 150 GB is taken by the system easily and couple of programs like Office suite.

          Please post a screenshot of “system use” being 150G.

          Apple updates aren’t a whole new OS release, “every day”.

    Apple will BULK sell these NEW or APPLE REFIRB'ED units to a reselller and they usaly come with a full new warranty backed by apple so thiers a good chance they are an apple indirect sale. In the USA they are bulk sold as NEW too bulk-onsold through newegg, bestbuy and amazon but in OZ they are more opoquly sold. JBHIFI usaly trys to win the bids for them and the goodguys but it seems Harris is the winner here today.

    Should you buy one though as the M4 is better and the M5 is just around the perverbial?!? Ill answer that, it depends… Im writting this is a MBA M2 16gb and if you surf the inernet and do basic normal stuff then this is a bloody good buy and it beats anything else (and I own a Lenovo OLED 32gb/1tb AMD) but it was $1200ish and this is $800ish…

    School, office and travel this is my pick for the $ any day and twice on sundays but RRP M4 prices Id get the Lenovo as OLED 32gb/1tb is just superior for doing stuff IMO.

    Apple ways of memory and storage is going to cost it sales in 25/26 and they have to seriously change thier ways IMO. Ai/LLM and realword uses of computers have become consumerers of 128gb (my deaktop just got 96gb so I could run 60gb LLMs localy for $350) and Im betting 512gb and then 1tb memory for devices by 2030…

    Its a brave new world… But for email, docs and iMovie, for now, the MBA M2 is perfect as long as its cheap like this for 2025

    HT had this MBA on ebay (brand new) two weeks ago for $1095. eBay fees ~13.5% meaning their net would be ~$947.
    Depending on their buying capacity and stock availability I wouldn't say that $880 for a brand new machine is completely out of the picture.
    I would think that these are in fact new stock.
    Has anyone had a response confirming the condition from HT?
