Apple has begun selling certified refurbished 2020 MacBook Air models through its online store in the United States for the first time, with prices discounted by approximately 15 percent compared to brand new models.

Apple says refurbished MacBook Air models are thoroughly inspected, tested, cleaned, and repackaged with a USB-C power adapter and USB-C cable in the box. In our view, a refurbished MacBook Air is virtually indistinguishable from a brand new model, so this represents a good opportunity for savings directly from Apple.
Keep in mind that third-party resellers frequently offer better deals than Apple's refurbished prices, so be sure to monitor our deals roundup.
A refurbished MacBook Air comes with Apple's standard one-year warranty effective on the date the notebook is delivered. The warranty can be extended to three years from the refurbished purchase date with AppleCare+ at a cost of $249 for the MacBook Air.

Apple one is 16GB of RAM, the Costco one is only 8GB. Much rather pay $50 more for double the RAM.$1099 for refurb or $1049 new at Costco. Think I will go Costco on Wednesday when that have an additional $100 off.
2018 model had a terrible screen. Dark, splotchy yuckiness. I couldn’t believe how bad it was. Current model screen is MUCH better.Thats a deal, though occasionally you can get the 2018 model (with the crappy KB and no true tone) for $679!!!
Yep, mine was one of them.So soon suggests a much higher than normal return rate.
So glad I spent the extra money for the 10th gen 13".
