Go to this Apple page and enter the serial no: Check Your Service and Support Coverage - Apple Support


It will tell you what the model Mac you have and its warranty status.


Do not purchase a used Mac that hasn't been prepared according to this Apple document: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Mac and from a source that you can't take it back for a full refund if it doesn't work correctly or isn't what you expected.
