  • Apple reduces trade-in values for iPhone, iPad and Mac

    ImbackImback
    The trade-in value doesn't really matter when they refuse to honor the deal.

    I traded in my 2017 iMac on a new MacBook Pro a few weeks ago. The iMac was in perfect working order however I received an email from Apple that said the iMac's backlight wasn't working and they reduced the trade in value to $0.

    After a few phone calls and emails Apple refused to do anything so I had them return my iMac. After I received it I checked it out and it was still in perfect working order. And this was Apple handling the trade-in, not some third party. The iMac was shipped to Apple's Elk Grove, California facility and shipped from there as well when it was return.

    So they are either incompetent or just decided they didn't want my iMac anymore. In any event, I now have to sell the iMac myself.

    Do a search on Apple trade-in problems and you will get lots of hits. I wouldn't recommend anyone use them.

    You would think AppleInsider would be familiar with their own stories. Here is a quote from one of their own articles that explains what is going…

    Reader apps are defined as software that displays outside content on iOS, including previously purchased videos, music, magazines, newspapers and books. Previously purchased subscriptions to the same types of content are covered under the reader app umbrella. Such apps, like Netflix and Spotify, are allowed to operate on the App Store as long as developers don't urge users to conduct transactions outside of Apple's marketplace.

    F1 driver tracks down thieves that stole his AirPods with Find My

    Based on what was in the article this is blatantly false. The thieves have not been found.

    AppleInsider said:
     Fawaz was formerly an executive at Motorola Mobility, which Google also acquired, failed to turn around, and eventually sold off to Lenovo.
    Google got everything it wanted out of Motorola Mobility. It was never their intention to turn it around.
