Quite a good deal imo,
Newest macbook air retails $1499 (or ~$1322 from UNiDAYs education store) as comparison.
Also available in silver version:

Incase you want a expensive heater for bed in winters.
you can get at least 2 Dyson fans for that price tag at 10000% more efficiency lol
Definitely stay away - I wouldn't be buying into an Intel Mac at this point.
Not a deal really. M1 Air way better than this.
Quite a good deal really, only 1k for an Apple logo /s
Get an M1 or a Windows Intel instead.
This is way too close to the M1's price to consider.
M1 is $1294.70 for students here: https://www.apple.com/au_edu_5000447/shop/buy-mac/macbook-ai…
A bit less than the Unidays store and the regular education discount.
The refurb M1s from Apple are more expensive then that! $1359 for 256/8gb and $1679 for 512/8gb, how does that make any sense?!
This is the price for education staff or students. That’s how
than*
Is there any verification process? In case I’m not a union member at this exact point in time?
You just have to be a student. And even if you're not, they rarely audit.

M1 is significantly more featured and only a fraction more cost. Avoid this deal.
If it is i5 with 512 GB hard drive and around $650 then it will be ok.
MacBook m1 air is the way to go. Spend a little more and get a brand new device which will last you at least 10 years (as long as you look after it).
NO NO NO - not an i3 for over $1k :-o
not a deal at all, considering this is refurb.
intel Core i3, I'll say that again Core i3 for $1K+ is not a bargain, it is a terrible suggestion in fact
M1s come up at 10% off at major retailers quite often.
I want to give a big SHOUT OUT to the Ozbargain community who comment on this thread ! You have reallly saved me from NOT buying this thinking it is a good bargain ! I know nothing about Macbook but in the market for a laptop for work but don't want something heavy and this price seems affordable.
Thank you thank you thank you to you all ! :)
No idea why OP posted this. Not every discount is a bargain.
"Quite a good deal imo."
More negs than positive votes….clearly not a good deal OP
Not a good deal. Get M1 Mac’s.
It's a cheap MacBook Air, but it's not really a 'bargain'…
The new M1 chip does not support boot camp,. A good deal for those who wants to run windows 10 on Mac book air, like having a Windows Laptop and Mac Book but paying only one price $1029. Absolutely a bargain for those who wants apple logo but prefer to use windows. I personally find mac OS not so user friendly .
That's such a specific use-case though. If you want an apple logo but prefer windows, just slap a damn apple sticker on a Dell or HP lmao
but a Mac book air can dual boot and switch between OS , an apple sticker can't………..
Using Macbook air M1 with Win 11 ARM via parallel. The Arm version might be limited for heavy app. But I doubt win 10/11 x86 on i3 does better.
repeat after me, Intel Core i3, intel Core i3….
I hate Apple especially the traditionally overpriced Mac's. So why would anyone by MacBook to run Windows? But if you wanted to buy a handicapped computer, why would you buy anything but an M1 based one? They poo all over the Intel based one's. Just run virtualbox if you really want to run Windows.
Sorry OP but this is a no no…
Quite a good deal imo
OP please tell me you didn't buy this.
$1069 Refurb i3 MBA, Geekbench 5 results - 982 Single-core / 1943 Multi-core
$1295 Brand new M1 MBA, Geekbench 5 results - 1703 Single-core / 7399 Multi-core.
Even ignoring other factors like battery life, i3 MBAs running like a toaster, this is highway robbery.
why on earth would you like to waste money on Intel macbook at 1k???
