Can I exchange my MacBook for a new one?

Hi jc4p,
Yes you can exchange your 1 day old MacBook for a brand new one if you please. I hope that you arn't missing out on a new computer by your dad taking it, but I'm sure he will love it. Hope this helps.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.

While I'm not sure I understand why your father would want to return your MacBook to buy an identical one he can do that. He should know that Apple will charge him a 10% restocking fee if the box has been opened.

Hope this helps.

dude I seriously hope your dad isn't taking your new computer just because he wants it! That would not be so cool.

Thanks for correcting me, I did forget about the restocking fee. But doesn't Apple give you 14 days to return the product for an exchange for refund? And I also thaught that the restocking fee was %15? Maybe I am completly wrong.

In the United States, you can return your new computer (as long as it was not custom-configured at the factory) for a refund for any reason up to 14 calendar days from the purchase date. Apple will charge yo a 10% restocking fee for doing this. If your computer was purchased online and custom configured (added RAM, a larger hard drive or pre-installed software), then you cannot return it for a simple refund. You can find the complete sales policies here:

Thanks so much Doug for correcting me. At least I was right about the 14 days...

Leave home.

Uh, What?

He wants a new one, but doesn't want yours, but he wants to exchange it for one that exactly like yours.

Sorry I don't get it.

Not you, mrcur - the initial poster whose father is confiscating his shiny new toy.

Ok, Sorry didn't get that. I agree, take it and leave... It's a shame to see something this nice get taken away after 1 day...

Yes, I thought the whole thing is totally weird and bizarre, what the dad was doing?? First he bought the MacBook for his kid, now he wants it back, but wants a new one, just because the MacBook is one day old??

Talk about Strange and Weird Stories, this just made it as one.

Cheers
