Why Your Family Will Love a Used MacBook From Swappa #SwappaMacBook

I received product/compensation in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

For me, my computer is part of my family. It is something that helps me provide for my family, keep track of my family and help my family. I honestly don’t know if I could live without it. Just like people though computers do have an end date and mine is slowly but surely dying. With tech being so expensive and a whole family of tech lovers, I have discovered that we don’t always need brand new items.

What is a mom to do when she needs to replace her MacBook in an affordable way? Visit the Swappa marketplace of course!

What is Swappa?

Swappa is a safe and friendly marketplace for ‘newish’ tech. From phones to video games to home tech and laptops, Swappa is user-to-user marketplace where users can buy and sell their used tech. Unlike Craigslist or Ebay though, every listing for sale on Swappa is manually reviewed by a group of tech experts to ensure only quality items are sold in the condition expected.

Since my next purchase is going to be a MacBook, I found so many reasons why Swappa is the place to shop – the main reason being the much lower price tag!

Buying a used MacBook

Swappa has newish MacBooks starting at just $375! That is crazy cheap, especially when I don’t need something brand new.

Air: $999.00 (new) – starting around $375 (used on Swappa)
MacBook: New $1,299.00 (new) – starting around $675 (used on Swappa)
Pro: $1,900.00 (new) – starting around $500 (used on Swappa)

All purchases on Swappa are completed through Paypal, meaning you get extensive buyer protection and your financial information will be safe. Plus, you have the PayPal Credit option which means an interest-free purchase when paid back within 6 months. So not only can you save money on a new-to-you laptop but you can get smaller payment options that are convenient, easy and predictable.

Buying used is also better for the environment. Yeah for reusing instead of those gadgets being added to a landfill.
