After starting college, I quickly realized I needed a laptop for doing work on the go. I was so excited when I decided on buying refurbished over new for half of the price. Today when I received the laptop, I was heavily disappointed in the packaging. There was no bubble wrap or styrofoam in the box at all, just laptop in an unpadded box. Upon taking it out and examining the laptop, there were just minor scratches and scuffs, no big deal. But the trouble came when I turned it on to set it up. I couldn’t get past the select your country or region page. I restarted the laptop 3 times to no avail. I then called Apple Support and they attempted multiple times to help me get this to work without any success. Apple advised me to return it as it is a faulty laptop.
