updated Macmini 2014
July 5, 2022
received quickly, very good condition, I should have opted for a bigger SSD, as quick as my modified imac 2012. Higher speed CPU gave it a good performance. I would recommend this item to a friend! This review is from Apple Mac mini (2014) 3GHz Dual Core i7 - Used, Very Good condition.

Glad to hear this is working well for you! Mac Mini's are nice to have as they provide a nice computing experience in a small form factor as well as allowing you to pick your own monitor and screen. If you ever need to upgrade it more though, let us know and we will get you in the right direction! :)

Nice unit, but the optical output did not work.
June 15, 2022
I bought this Mini to use as a music server. So I was very disappointed to find that the optical output was not working. It seems to be a dirt problem, since by applying suction to the area of the computer I was able to get the optical output working again. Using a compressed air can did nothing. It must have been very dirty inside that computer. I am concerned of course that the optical output will stop working again. It would be better if OWC had tested ALL the functions of the computer before selling it. I would recommend this item to a friend! This review is from Apple Mac mini (2014) 2.6GHz Dual Core i5 - Used, Very Good condition.

Mac Mini (2014)
May 25, 2022
Honestly, I was having a difficult time finding a very good condition Mac mini until I found your website. It came well packaged and it was easy to set up and get going. The only thing that took a while was updating the operating system to the latest version. Once that was finished it's been great. I know who to go to for my future Apple products.

Overall very good, but room for a little improvement.
April 21, 2022
SUMMARY: Order communication could be faster. Packaging/shipping could use improvement. Computer was in very good to excellent condition, but not "mint." Computer appears to be fully functional and custom installed part was working as ordered. Shipped with macOS 10.15 Catalina installed.
ORDERING: Ordering was fairly easy. It would have been helpful if MacSales.com communicated the estimated shipping date prior to order completion, or even within a business day after. This item was listed as "Pending" in green which was described as, "Date expected for item same day availability has been reached. Status will be updated shortly with a new ETA or same day availability status." Order was completed on March 25th at 7:39 pm. Being after business hours on a Friday, I expected it to take until Monday before my order was processed. However, I received an email invoice for my order on March 30th at 3:30 pm. Subsequent email for the extended warranty and digital download parts of my order arrived over the next half hour. Shipping label created with UPS around 6 pm that day.
SHIPPING/PACKAGING: The order arrived on April 6 (partly due to my choice of UPS Ground shipping). The shipping box was in good condition. Inside, the air-pack envelope for the computer itself would have been adequate except two opposite ends were not inflated, allowing the computer to come in almost direct contact with the sides of the box. This means a hit on either end where no air tubing was protecting the computer, could transfer impact shock directly to the computer case. The air packaging around the computer also had extra space on all sides so the air-pack and unit were sliding around inside the box. The power cord was underneath the computer, lifting it up. So, in short, there needed to be enough air-pack and/or fill to prevent sliding and contact with the physical computer body. The power cord could have been taped to one side to prevent movement.
CONDITION: MacSales.com listed this item as "Mint" condition, describing it as follows: "With these nearly pristine units, it’s a challenge to visually find imperfections." In many reseller environments, "mint" usually implies an item that looks as it did the day it came off the factory line, except that it cannot be called "New" because it has been used or at least opened. This unit arrived looking excellent, but on close inspection you could easily see or feel small nicks or minor scrapes on the edges and surfaces of the metal body. These marks were not significant enough to cause me to return the computer immediately, but I would have felt more confidence if the air-pack had been protecting all sides. I would recommend this item to a friend! This review is from Apple Mac mini (2014) 3GHz Dual Core i7 - Used, Mint condition.

I was tired of using a Windows based computer for my movie server. This Mac Mini does the job well and I don't have the usual Windows problems. I've been a Mac users since 2015. I cut my teeth on windows based computers since 1987. I was a network administrator for a number of years. I resisted Apple computers for years, after purchasing my first Mac in 2015 I was sold.
