The Cartridge World store in Essen, Germany
Cartridge World Germany has launched a range of refurbished MacBooks for sale through their shops, retailing at €849 ($934).
The refurbished MacBook Pro laptops have been fully overhauled by an Apple authorised partner, and are available in stock or with delivery within two days. All the computers have the latest operating system installed, and come with a one-year warranty.
The computers were first launched in a trial earlier this summer from Cartridge World Germany’s Essen store, which has more than 3,000 customers. Sales have been very good during the trial, and Cartridge World Germany can now offer the computers on 10 months zero percent finance through a leading German bank.

The financing option was introduced recently, and according to a Cartridge World Germany spokesperson, 40 percent of computers are now sold with a finance package. The spokesperson said that the trial in the Essen and four other stores had been a successs, and helped generate increased sales. The refurbished Apple MacBook computers will now feature permanently in the stores, and be available for the Christmas sales.
