So I ordered from this vendor that hosts a site on EBay. I purchased a Mac Mini M2 but what I got was a Mac Mini M4 in a Mac Mini Apple box labelled Mac Mini M2??? Besides the chassis design differences. Clearly someone did not know the difference. OK so some I am sure are thinking so you got a M4 for the price of a M2. OK so the problem ended up when I tried trading in the M4 for a M5 Mac Mini. Apple informed me there was a problem with that serial number. They would not give me specifics it was obvious either stolen or a demo model that was tagged not to be resold. So I basically ended up with a Mac Mini with of no value in the market. Lesson learned to be careful about buying stuff and especially bait and switch of which I was a victim of. Yes, If Apple returns the M4 Mac Mini I can at least use it, but one person at Apple said sometimes they keep these units that are not supposed to be in circulation. Quickshipelectronics wasn't very communicative either, and never offered to correct their mistake. I ended up filing a dispute with my bank card. I guess this is the pitfalls of buying on these sites.
