Update on my "like new" MacBook (Space Gray, VIPoutlet on Walmart for $302, only slight cosmetic issues around a couple edges, 5 battery cycles, warranty started August 2025):
  • Battery health is at 100%
  • Battery manufactured April 2024
  • MacBook was therefore manufactured after this date, so good news that the MacBook itself is at most about 1.5 years old (rather than 4-5+ years)

Got mine today and pleased with what I received:
  • Box had some dings in the corners. Wished they packaged these in actual boxes vs. mailing envelopes
  • Laptop is in flawless condition. Clean, no scratches/nicks, looks new out of the box.
  • Charging cable wrapped with twist tie, charging block and docs included
  • Battery health is 100% and only has two charging cycles
  • AppleCare valid through November 19, 2026 with purchase date of November 19, 2025.

Mine arrived today. Thanks to posters here, I was able to add the Purchase date with Bill receipt as proof and got my Apple warranty for 1 yr.

Came up in an opened box. The cable and adapter were not in original packaging, but the device itself was untouched.

My battery cycle is showing as 1, with 100% batter health. Great deal and a nice gift for my spouse in time for V-day.

Thanks all.

Hi All! Thanks OP for this deal, I've been wanting something just for light couch surfing and media. Got mine today and pleased with what I received:
  • Box had some wear in the corners but very minor. Only because they packaged box in mailing envelopes, which is strange but ok.
  • Laptop is in PERFECT condition. Clean, no scratches/nicks, looks new out of the box. Not even dust on it.
  • Charging cable wrapped with twist-tie, charging block and docs included - as others have noted
  • Battery health is 100% and only has ONE charge cycles!
  • Now for the best part: It has AppleCare+ valid through December 23, 2027! Yes, 2027!
Coverage states:
Your device is covered for:
  • Accidental Damage Protection
  • Hardware Service
  • 24/7 Priority Access
Pretty good deal I think! Thanks OP!

The smell is probably related to VOC's. VOC odors are very common, although I have not encountered a case where the odors hadn't cooked off within a month or two. You might find [Why Do New Electronics Have a Weird Smell?](https://www.howtogeek.com/415656/...ics-smell/) a useful resource.

I received one very similar. Appears essentially new. There are a couple of scuff marks on the bottom, as the charging cable was not wrapped up perfectly and was probably rubbing on the bottom of the laptop during shipping. Otherwise only two batter cycles and the keyboard, screen, and top of laptop look brand new. I think its a great deal for a laptop for kids to use to do assignments, practice typing, etc. Warranty good through mid November as well.

Hi! Mine arrived today. It has one or two exterior scuffs but other looks new. Unfortunately, like some others here, the battery (with only one cycle count) will not take any sort of charge and says "Service Recommended." I started the Walmart return but then checked apple website which says it only was purchased today and that the "Limited Warranty" is good until Feb 12, 2027. Forgive a rookie question, but how difficult would it be to get apple to fix the battery under warranty? Thanks!

It looks like walmart does not price adjust for changes in price.

Go into you apple account online and contact support. As this is considered a "new" laptop, it will still have live apple support as and warranty coverage, and you shouldnt have any trouble getting it fixed, if you decide to go that route. They may be able to help you troubleshoot the issue over chat without service, potentially.

Easy. Take it to an Apple Store or authorized repair store, tell them the issue, let them run diagnostics and confirm and they'll usually fix it on the spot.
