Where can I buy a certain Macbook A1278 case?

I recently picked up a mid-2010 Macbook Pro, 13.3 inches. It's an A1278 model, and I'm wanting to buy a good case for it.
I've seen on multiple occasions people with matte black cases which will cause the apple to change color, and I'd prefer something like that.
However, if it is unknown where I can get a case like this, is there anywhere where I can just view a good selection of cases for my computer?, rather than just browsing Amazon (Which is less useful in this matter than you'd think)

Changes in build model years, keep the third party manufacturers of accessories and
cases, looking to the new product market; so ones made a few years ago no longer are.
Some companies may have new-old-stock, or clean condition pre-owned; given there
has been changes to the shape of the MacBook/Pro case and port locations, the new
cases won't fit and are scarce. Demand is toward fulfilling the newer model's design.
Some of the actual resellers, not auction or one-of offers by individuals, may be able to
locate cases & accessories for models no longer in production. But, the trail gets cold.
edit: in the past some of the google located items had come close to the goal, though
the stock varies and there isn't a stockpile of them available now; it is hit or miss:
https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=mid+2010+macbook+pro+13+inch+protective+cas e&tbm=shop
I've attempted to help others looking to locate correct fitting cases for older MacBook
models, and other than the rare Amazon seller or some other long-time reseller who
happens across some new-old-stock from some other supplier warehouse, there isn't
much of anything out there. And I'd be wary of buying from some china-direct sites
online because you cannot be certain of the site security or what happens to your info.
Scarce inventory, or virtually no inventory, is a big part of locating out-of-production items.
Sorry to not be of much help; perhaps another may reply with more information on this.
Good luck & happy computing!

  • Where Can I Buy A Custom MacBook?

    Hi, does anyone know where I can get a custom MacBook? I am hoping for a new MacBook Pro for Christmas, but where can I buy a MacBook with the certain specs that I want? So I want a 15-inch MacBook Pro with a really good graphics card. But no place seems to have that specific computer! Best Buy has like 10 Macs to pick from; "Oh, I think the only MacBook Pro we have in stock has 4GB RAM, and a 256MB of graphics." I never can get what I want! and the Apple website only has certain options. It's like if I'm not satisfied with what they have right now, then I don't get a computer. Does anyone know where to get it? Please respond! Thanks!

    True.  To get new 15" non retina you have to buy close out from the refurbished or old stock from Apple products distributors ex Best Buy.

  • Where can I buy a larger hard drive for my late 2008, 15" macbook pro?  From reviewing questions and answers on the support community it would appear that having Apple remove the old and install the new hard drive is recommended.  But how/where?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can install the new hard disk yourself if you want to. You just need a 2'5" SATA II hard drive, which is compatible with your MacBook Pro. You can buy one at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ You can filter hard drives by computer, so press a "Click to view all...", choose your computer in the sidebar and it will give you the compatible hard drives.
    There are different brands for the MacBook Pro. The most recommended are HGST and Seagate, which have good reputation. A 7200 rpm hard drive will give you extra performance

  • Where can I buy a genuine apple replacement battery (A1309) for my Mid 2010 17" Macbook Pro?

    Where can I buy a genuine apple replacement battery (A1309) for my Mid 2010 17" Macbook Pro? There are used batteries on ebay that don't appear genuine. There are some third-party knock offs. The apple store seems to believe they can replace it, but I have to make a reservation at the silly Genius Bar just to have them tell me how much it's gonna cost, not to mention then likely wait for them to order the battery and install it. I'm perfectly capable of installing it myself. I just need to know where I can order it?
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Yeah, that's what I've finally decided. I was kidna super frustrated because the first apple store I called wouldn't even tell me a price or tell me if they could replace the battery without a Genius Bar appointment, and as I would have to take off work and drive acros town--and I don't have a car so I'd have to borrow one--that was pretty annoying. That call left me pricing linux laptops. I called another store to see if I'd have better luck, and the initial answer was the same, but the girl relented under some trying-to-be-nice-but-clearly-annoyed pressure, and she gave me the answers I needed: yes, they should have the battery in stock and it should be a same-day replacement that should cost $179.
    It just *****, really, because there's so much about Apple that I used to love, and I'm watching it kinda melt away under their success in the mobile market. As a professional user, there's less and less reason to stick with them. Instead of being the best they can be, I feel like they're just trying to be flashier and just a little better than the other mediocre computer companies. Ugh. Anyway, now I'm ranting.

  • Where can I buy a new battery for my macbook

    Where can I buy a new battery for my macbook

    Depending on the build year model configuration
    (reference serial number lookup online) you may
    have a MacBook w/ built-in battery, or maybe not.
    If yours does not have a user-accessible battery
    you may want to look into iFixit.com guides to see
    what they suggest for your specific MacBook.
    And then consider if you are up to the DIY steps
    with ability to do the complete service yourself,
    or if not, then contact a qualified certified service
    center to inquire their estimate for part + labor.
    However if your computer does have an easily
    replaced battery with external access where
    you are essentially looking at the battery, that
    is just a matter of identifying the correct Mac
    to get a matching part from reputable reseller.
    You could probably get a replacement battery
    from Apple, if the computer isn't really old...
    Or you could look online at places such as
    OWC where they offer a few batteries. Just
    be sure to avoid the low-end no-name clones
    from auction sites or cheap copy imports.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Where can i buy original memory for my macbook pro 13inc mid 2012 and how much is this ?

    Where can i buy original memory for my macbook pro 13inc mid 2012 and how much is this ?

    "Memory sold by the Apple Online Store is guaranteed to be compatible with your Macintosh."
    http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/memory
    Other than Apple there are only two vendors with which I have personal experience and can recommend: Crucial and OWC. People have reported problems with many other brands, yet Crucial and OWC's prices are as good as any you are likely to find.
    Go to Crucial and download the little app that examines your system and recommends RAM upgrade options.
    Their prices are good but don't have to buy memory from them - determine what you need and buy it from Crucial or OWC / MacSales. You'd be paying Apple a lot more than either one of them, and you don't have to. 

  • Where can I buy a MacBook? Not Pro or Air. It has important meaning for me!

    Where can I buy a MacBook? Not Pro or Air. It has important meaning for me!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    We're not "Apple" here, just users like yourself.
    Are you seeking a new unit or refurbished?
    Apple discontinued production and sales of new MacBooks to all but education sources during 2011.
    And education sales were discontinued about 2 months ago:
    http://www.tuaw.com/2012/02/08/white-macbook-reaches-end-of-life-education-sales -to-cease/
    If you want a new MacBook, you might be able to find unsold units or demo units in stock at college stores or electronics retailers.
    Refurbished MacBooks are still available occasionally through the Apple Store Refurbs. They are listed in the store when refurbished units are available, and are removed from the store when they sell out, often within a matter of a few hours: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac
    At the moment I'm posting, there are none listed.
    And there are a number of sources for used MacBooks that you can locate with any popular search engine. I purchased my refurbished MacBook directly from the Apple Store online several years ago.
