Even better deal

you can find it on here for $875 to $1135

https://swappa.com/laptops/macbooks/macbook-air?product=macbook-air-2020-13
Not much of a savings to buy used.

$875 used vs $899 new for 8/256 model
$1135 used vs $1199 new for 8/512 model.

And you get a shorter warranty, and lose out on extended 1 yr warranty your credit card gives you when you buy new.

One other thing... why buy from Amazon when you can get both the 8/256 and 8/512 MBA's for the same price from Apple's education store *and* get free AirPods?

Does anyone who owns this model have cooling issues? I wouldn't want one if the fans are spinning up for basic browsing and YT.

There's still a bunch of 2020 MacBook Airs available at great prices in the US Apple Refurb Store. Examples: i5/16/256 $1099, i3/16/256 $1019, i5/8/512 $1099 ...

i5 with 16gb of ram and 256gb of storage for $1099 is tempting.
