If you’re still wondering, was just quoted $575 for the flat rate repair fee on an early 2013 MacBook Pro retina having the display issue that was covered under an extended warranty, though my problem happened after that program ended.

Last time I enquired (about 3 months ago, at my local store in suburbs of Boston MA USA) I was told they try to do half the repairs in store and half in depot.


My impression was that the cost depended on exactly what Mac you were sending to the depot, but a rough estimate was about half the cost of an In-store motherboard replacement, and they would fix everything on your list.


My estimate was that your Mac might be gone for about 8 days total if all the parts were available.

Technically there are 4 pricing tiers to the "Flat rate depot repairs" for Apple's portable computers, depending on the estimated/diagnosed damage.



In or out of warranty you can get a free over the counter 'Apple Service Diagnostics' test, after you have an in store estimate, ask about the "flat rate depot repair"
