I went to the store the weekend after receiving my new refurbished Macbook, and I wasn’t allowed inside because I didn’t have a Genius Bar appointment. It worked out that Apple stores were open again in my area after being mostly closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. For extra safety, I backed up my data on my old computer manually and then ran the sync after receiving the new one. However, I wanted to use Apple’s Migration Assistant to transfer the files from my old Macbook to the new one before trading in. I also added AppleCare+ because I didn’t want to have to worry about anything going wrong with my laptop in the next few years. It’s not much, but I felt fine doing so since Apple’s refurbished products come with the same 1-year warranty as their new products. Compared to buying directly from their new inventory, I saved just about $80 or so.
