I purchased the "excellent condition" option hoping that I might avoid the issues that others were describing. While I did receive the correct color and model, it is not in excellent condition. The battery needs to be serviced, right out of the box (this is $129 do do through Apple). In addition, the left shift button only works sometimes which made it extremely difficult to sign in to my apple id - I couldn't see which ones weren't working since the password was dots. Had to change my apple password like 2-3 times before I figured it out.
