jonesyb Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I am moving to Thailand next week and will want to upgrade my Macbook Pro at some point. Because I am on somewhat of a budget I would like to sell my current Macbook Pro and buy a new one. I dont mind buying used and would prefer to do that because of my limited budget. Has anyone had experience with this sort of thing? My first post, is this the right forum for this type of post? Thank you, I look forward to getting involved in this community more in the coming months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Buy and sell in your home country. Far better deals and more selection, usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narkeddiver Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Depends on your home country and your budget - it might be worth considering selling in your home country and buying a new one here. For example the entry level Mac book pro is £1,599 in the uk - the exact same model in Thailand costs approx £1,239 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewInPatts Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) Mac2hand.com is good place. Sold and bought many things over the years there with no issues.. theres another forum completely in Thai for used macbook parts (which name I forgot) I was always able to check the serial number, verify it with Apple and never had any issues. Just personal experience. Edited September 27, 2015 by NewInPatts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonesyb Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Thank you for your suggestions everyone. What I have done is upgrade my current Macbook. Upgraded ram to 8gb and a 500gb SSD instead of the standard hd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upgraded ram to 8gb and a 500gb SSD instead of the standard hd. I was thinking of doing similar on my early 2011/13". How is it now? And where did you do it, Thailand?

Fly out on Thursday. My post is a little misleading, I have bought the parts to do the job and will do it when I'm over there. I am so busy sorting stuff out. I shall post the results though. I am also going to remove the optical drive and put the old hard drive in there for extra storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
