    Was wondering if you guys had experiences with buying cheap mbps from craigslist/ebay. I'm looking at a brand new 15 retina for $1400 on craigslist, and it definitely seems like one of those "if it's too good to be true..." cases. However seeing as it is advertised as brand new with full warranty, how can it be sold for so cheap?

    Ad in question: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/sys/3828971209.html
    let me know if ad links arn't permitted and I'll remove it.

    Thanks
