Is Strictly Apple a SCAM?

[@txcforever]

Just selling stuff without bothering removing/unlinking the accounts from the devices is borderline criminal. Also having prices borderline more expensive than other marketplaces or even actual stores makes me think like they pick stuff from various sellers online (ebay/facebook or whatever) and just sell them with a small bump in price for a profit. In general this screams scam where they target random people surfing TikTok or whatever that think the Macbook they are buying for $300 is the same as the one Apple sells for $1000.

[@CaseyDplays]

This is a HUGE issue with managed Apple devices. The companies wipe the device and sell it but forget to remove the remote management, whoever gets the device doesn't know it's a managed device unless they try to set up a new user. So resellers open it up turn it and see it's ready (supposedly) for a new user and then sell it. Then the person who bought it gets stuck with a brick because they don't have any way to remove it from a managed device system. The ONLY way to remove it is for the original owners that managed the device to go into their accounts and remove it as a managed device. As you can guess, most school IT and office IT departments aren't going to bother helping you with that. Especially since they can't confirm you bought it legit and aren't just trying to unlock one of their many computers to resell. They can't know if that one has been sold or not. Officially, they are supposed to remove any device they sell from their managed account before selling them, but they don't think of that when they wipe them.

[@kafaliev]

But at least you can tip them

[@WKelly42]

​@@CaseyDplays most school disttricts have to keep a log of what they surplus and what they sell, though - I know the one I work at keeps track for a year after it leaves our inventory. If you call to check, they should be able to check records by serial number and remove it from Apple School Management and their MDM.

It could be reasonable to assume that some people responsible for getting rid of the laptops from schools wouldn’t know to do this, however, as a retailer that claims to be near-expert professionals, selling a MDM-locked device is embarrassing.

I have went and attended a school in Pasco county believe it or not, which is located in Florida. The county retired these laptops on May 28th, 2024 because they're no longer were receiving updates from apple and they retired them. Now they're mainly using Windows laptops and some iPads.

21:07 just press and hold both the noise control button and digital crown until you see three orange lights, then it'll do a hard reset and forget any original apple id's, not saying it fixes what happened but they're not f'd

It’s a nice looking site, but behind scenes is just a pawnshop.

That MacBook probably wasn't stolen. The school was probably too lazy to unenroll it before they sent it off to recycling and then made it to the store that sold it to you.

12:28 it's not going to be snappy on mojave im using a macbook pro early 2015 model and im having problems with big sur. just because you can update old machines to the latest os doesnt mean you should im like 3 seconds away from just replacing mac os with a similar looking linux distro. for what most kids are going to be using it for a 2015 device is probably more than fine for their needs. I wouldn't go anything older than 2015 in general for mac or PCs just for internet browser support and what not.

There's a very good reason to target "strictly" Apple products when selling over priced and obsolete equipment while still asking for a tip and using shady marketing.

I work for ATT and you can literally buy a brand new iPhone 12 outright at ATT for $40 more than that banged up thing.

10:50 most schools and businesses with only low level IT support almost always leave retired computers in either Azure or the Apple equivalent. Thus locking the devices indefinitely.

My local Walmart has a refurbished section and I bought an iPad just like the one Austin bought for $214.99 and it’s like new.
