The FTC is reportedly investigating Apple's deal with Amazon that cut out unauthorized resellers, according to The Verge.The deal, announced last fall, has been great for consumers looking to purchase new Apple products; however, it has had the effect of kicking off hundreds of legitimate sellers that were offering low-cost refurbished products no longer sold by Apple.
One such seller is a Minnesota man named John Bumstead who specializes in refurbished MacBooks. Earlier this month he was contacted by a group of FTC officials and interviewed by FTC lawyers and an economist about the impact the deal has had on his business.
