If it is within 1 year of purchase date it can still be added. You stated it was nearly new. That means a purchase within 6 months or less.
So it is either "nearly new" and thus still eligible or its over a year old and thus it is not "nearly new".
So which way is it ?
I did not know a warranty could be added AFTER the fact. So don't be an asshole with me.
For someone that likes to invent definitions words "nearly new" without looking them up...
allow me to look it up for you because I see you didn't bother looking this up even though I posted the link in the very first message on this thread.
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-i7-2.6-15-dual-graphics-late-2013-retina-display-specs.htmlAnd during my exhaustive efforts searching with a single click I find this model has:
an Introduction Date: October 22, 2013
and a Discontinued Date: July 29, 2014
I don't like to make up definitions so next I will look at a calender and notice that
because it is not October 22nd, 2014 this Macbook Model A1398 is therefore less than a year old.
Just like you, I didn't know something, and now we both learned something new today.
You learned it is better not to be an asshole.
And I learned that it might be possible to buy an extended warranty on a < 1 year old Mac.
You assumed I was referring to the model as being "Nearly New" and calling me an asshole.
I have worked on Macs since there were Mac's.
I have mactracker on my iPhone and Macbook Pro (mid 2014) and know fully well how to look up the model spec's to see its release/discontinue date.
I was referring to "Nearly New" as to when you "Purchased" it. Since that is what qualifies if you can still add the warranty which you can do up to 1 year from date of purchase even on refurb units bought from the Apple Store.
That will tell you how much time is left on the warranty if you bought it from Apple. And as long as there is time left Applecare can be added.
