Electronics and moving back
My daughters have a few electronic items that they don't know wether to sell here or to purchase new back in England. There are 2 MacBook laptops and an iMac desktop. What would you do?

I would take the laptops Depends on the age and replacement cost of the desktop.

Yup, take them back. Just check the power supplies say something like 12-240v 50/60hz and if not it's easy to get replacements in UK.
Have you seen the price of Crapple equipment in the UK?

No need to worry about the voltage if the devices are post 2006. All Apple devices after that point support both voltages.

Re: Electronics and moving back
We brought back 2 MacBooks, 2 iPhones and and iPad. No problem with voltages, but it is always worth checking any electronic devices, for example our fairly new Brother inkjet printer/scanner is not dual voltage so I had to buy a voltage converter.
