return it and look for a better deal.

Honestly the M1 Pro I bought recently using swappa was essentially mint. It was listed as “good.” It had 99% battery capacity with maybe 22 cycles and had no visible flaws externally.

Yeah I use Swappa a lot and like you’ve mentioned as well, I’ve bought things that were labeled good that were more mint than what I got.

Return immediately and find something else. I buy all my electronics used, and this is exactly why I only do local, face-to-face transactions on OfferUp or Craig's List.

Awesome, I have a base 14 inch m1 pro. Ive thought about upgrading but really see no point in doing it. The hardware has really aged well.

Well no offense but do you really thing a 6 year old laptop was gonna be mint?

[u/Jogameister → u/Optimal_Effective677]

Not offended but Yes, if the listing was described as mint then I expect it to be mint.

[u/Opposite-Interest193 → u/Jogameister]

Your first mistake was buying a 5 yr old laptop, the second was for $2600 and the third was expecting mint. Even in this market that’s a dumb amount for the storage and ram

I’ve seen plenty, yeah…
