I bought an open box from there for that price Just be careful - the first one I bought was activation locked (previous user didn't clear out his/her iCloud completely when they returned it to MC and MC didn't check apparently) Luckily, when I went to return it, they had another open box for the same price so I rolled the dice on that one and came up a winner (ie, no activation lock) It was a bit disconcerting that when I returned the locked one, I told the person that it was locked - seems he didn't care or didn't know what that meant because he just printed out a new MC open box price tag, slapped it on the box and it was back up for sale on their website again within hours Did they mark it down some more? If you have the receipt from MC showing the serial number Apple should unlock it for you.

No, they didn't mark it down anymore
Before I returned it, I had filled out the Apple form to get it unlocked However, I returned it in the interim I did hear back from Apple asking me to upload the proof or purchase - however, I had already done that as the initial step in trying to get Apple to unlock it Regardless, I had already returned it so I didn't pursue the matter though I was perturbed that Apple asked for something (a copy of the proof of purchase) that I had already given them

Returned it and it was back out on the discount table the next time I went. Overall, I like MC but they should stop this behavior.
