Can highly recommend 'Macback' I had got the initial quote, which I was happy with. Once Macback had our MacBook back, they actually gave me more than quoted as the spec was better than I realised. They didn't have to tell me this, this was very honest of them and I really appreciated their honesty.

MacBook Pro was collected on Friday, message to say it arrived on Monday, contacted Tuesday to say there was a fault with the DVD drive on the Mac, we came to an agreement over the phone and payment in my bank by Wednesday. Brilliant company to deal with, no hassle at all.

Superb service. Was really concerned about who to trust with my beloved MacBook Pro. Read a lot of reviews and finally plumped for MacBack as a) they offered one of the highest prices and had a very easy-to-complete online form, b) they send out DPD as a courier to you to collect (who are the best IMO) and who give you a receipt there and then, and c) they had excellent reviews online. Also, they respond to emails promptly AND answer the phone (most places don't!) and a lovely man was able to help me with a concern I had re OS install after erasing the built-in harddrive. He was very knowledgable about Macs (tick!) and really friendly. The courier came on Thursday afternoon, I received confirmation of Grade C condition and amount payable on Tuesday and the cash was in my bank the next day. Couldn't praise them more. Thank you!

I wanted a new computer but I couldn’t justify getting one when I had one that worked perfectly well, even though it was a few years old. I heard about this company, so I figured if I could get a little cash for my old Mac I could get a new one. Well sure enough, I sent in my old mac and they sent me a check. I am now the proud oner of a new Macbook!

Great, efficient service. Prompt reply to e-mails and helpful telephone advice from Charles 🙂 Courier excellent - box for my laptop was delivered to my work address within 2 days and laptop picked up the next day from a local store. Money for my traded-in laptop was in my account the same day my laptop was checked. Very happy with the customer service and would definitely recommend MacBack 🙂

These guys are the best. They very quickly gave me a very fair quote online, without me having to supply an email address. Also they appeared to be highest price. Charles was most helpful and promptly and professionally assisted me through the whole process. The devices were picked up by UPS, when I wanted, and MacBack supplied a prepaid label to apply to the packaging. They even supplied an outer box if needed. I was kept totally informed on the progress of the delivery and result of the engineers findings. The payment was immediately paid into my bank account. A FIRST CLASS experience.

Preparing your Device for sale

Before your send us your Macbook Pro, it is a good idea to make a backup of your information. A backup is created as an extra copy of the file on your computer so that you can transfer these files to your new computer and continue to have access to them long after your Macbook Pro is gone. There are a few different ways to do a backup on your computer. One of the most common ways is to use iCloud to backup your documents, music, calendars, photos, and anything else you want to keep from your Macbook Pro. Backing up your computer is a fairly simple, straightforward process. However, if you would rather not attempt to do it on your own you can hire someone to do it for you at a very reasonable price.

After you have created a backup of the files on your Macbook Pro, you will want to make sure that you sign out of iTunes. To do so, open iTunes. On the menu bar at the top of the screen, choose “store”. Next, choose Deauthorise this Computer. Once you have entered your Apple ID and password, you should click Deauthorise to complete the process of signing out of iTunes. When you deauthorise your computer, you are removing access to the content you purchased from iTunes while you owned your Macbook Pro. This means that the next person who receives your Macbook Pro will not be able to access any of your movies, music, books, or other content so it is a pretty important step to complete.

Before starting, you will need to archive or make copies of your iCloud data if you use any iCloud features on your Macbook Pro like Find my Mac. The next step is to go to the Apple menu and select System Preferences. Then click iCloud and uncheck the Find My Mac checkbox. Lastly, sign out of iCloud. Go to System Preferences where you should click iCloud and sign out. You will be asked whether you want to remove iCloud data from your Macbook. Remember, when you sign out of iCloud, you are not removing data from your iCloud account. You are only removing data from your Macbook Pro so the next owner will not have access to it. Your iCloud data will remain safe in the cloud and you will be able to access it again once you log into another device using the same Apple ID.

This is a short, easy step to be taken if your Macbook Pro is using the OS X Mountain Lion or later. If not, you will not have to do this step. If you are using the OS X Mountain Lion or later, go to the Messages app and click on Preferences. Next, select accounts and select your iMessage account. Finally, click Sign Out.

This is the final step you should take if you are selling your Macbook Pro. Before you start, make sure your computer is connected to the Internet. Restart your Macbook Pro. When you hear the startup sound, hold Command and R keys to go to OS X Recovery. Then, select Disk Utility and Continue. Select the name of your startup disk and click the Erase tab. To erase the drive, click Security Options and choose an erase method before clicking OK. When you see the format pop-up menu, choose Mac OS Extended. Type a disk name and then click Erase. After the drive has been erased, you can close the Disk Utility window. Next, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu if you are not connected to the Internet any longer. Choose the option Reinstall OS X. You can next click Continue, and follow the directions on the screen to finish reinstallation.

General Questions

Q: Where is the best place to sell a MacBook Pro?

A: When it comes to selling your MacBook Pro, there are a lot of options. One option is Ebay. You can list your MacBook Pro for sale on Ebay. You may have to pay a listing fee to sell your MacBook Pro, and when it sells, you will also have to pay a portion of the sale price to Ebay in fees, so that’s something you definitely want to consider.

Another option to sell your MacBook Pro is on a social media site like Facebook Marketplace. You can list your MacBook Pro for sale on a variety of social media sites. The problem with this is you will have to wait for someone who wants to pay what you’re asking. You might get a lot of people who want to haggle with you and give you next to nothing for your device. There’s also a chance that if you do sell your device, you might not have all your personal information taken off of it. This can leave you exposed to attacks.

Another option to consider is Macback. With our website, we will buy your MacBook Pro outright. There’s no waiting for us to list it and for a customer to purchase it from us. We’ll make you an offer upfront so you know how much you will get at the end of the transaction. Our company also take care of erasing all of your personal data, so you don’t have to worry about any kind of data breach coming from your old device. We also offer the best prices in the UK, so you know that you’re getting what your MacBook is worth. We even have a price match guarantee, and we’ll send your money right to your bank.

Q: How much can I sell my MacBook Pro for?

A: There are several factors that go into consideration when we’re making an offer. We consider the type of device you have including the model type and technical specs. We also consider the amount of wear and tear on the device. When taking those areas into consideration, we can offer up to £1,800 for a MacBook Pro.

Q: Where can I bring my MacBook Pro to sell?

A: Good news! You don’t have to bring your MacBook Pro to us, we’ll come to you! We will collect your device from your home or office when you are ready to sell, so you don’t have to spend any time traveling.
