This price was INSANE so I had to take the chance -- knowing it can be hit-or-miss with the refurbs.
But it PAID OFF. Absolute MINT condition, not a scratch on it. Still bad 100% battery life, came with a fast charger and a new magsafe cord. Only issue--no box; but that's a SMALL price to pay for a 5-figure discount off the original price. Warranty coverage showed it was activated originally in July. I added it no problem to the AppleCareONE subscription so it has accidental damage coverage now.
Only negative (not Best Buy's Fault), the M4 Pro with 24gb Ram, while blazing fast, really should start with 32gb or 36gb as a base now. Local LLMs are great on it, but there's just a lot of limit with going into 20B+ models due to Ram limits.
BUT, is it worth spending an extra G just for some more Ram? Nah, jump on this beast if these come back in stock.
