There are models from various brands, including several different MacBook options. If you&#8217;re interested in one of these, don&#8217;t miss their section of &#8220;ugly-looking&#8221; laptops, where you can find a MacBook starting from \u20ac426.<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 1 --> <\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad-lat\">\n<div class=\"ad-box\" id=\"div-gpt-lat\">\n  <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- PIVOT START --><\/p>\n<div class=\"pivot-ecommerce-container m-pivot-ecommerce-redesign article-asset-normal article-asset-center\">\n<div class=\"pivot-ecommerce\">\n<div class=\"pivot-ecommerce-figure\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pivot-ecommerce-summary\">\n<p class=\"pivot-ecommerce-desc\">MacBook Air M1 (8 GB, 256 GB)<\/p>\n<div class=\"pivot-actions\">\n<div class=\"pivot-disclaimer-refurbished\">Refurbished<\/div>\n<div class=\"pivot-actions-row\">\n<p>      MSRP on Back Market \u2014       <strong><span class=\"js-deal-price\">426,00<\/span> \u20ac<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- PIVOT END --><\/p>\n<h2>Rough on the outside, but works great on the inside<\/h2>\n<div class=\"article-asset-image article-asset-normal article-asset-center\">\n<\/div>\n<p>Perhaps you\u2019re wondering what Back Market means by a &#8220;ugly-looking&#8221; laptop.
