Hello Scotty,
I am in need of a new power cord for my computer. The other one is fried and makes sparks when it's pugged in YIKES! I cannot seem to find a replacement. Can you point me in the right direction or do you offer them?
thanks,

Honestly, I would check ebay. You can usually find used power adapters for Mac laptops at a descent price there. One thing to be aware of is that a common difference between macbooks and macbook pros is that the pros use an 85 watt adapter and the regular macbooks use 65 watt adapters. It’s not the end of the world if you use one with the other. It will just charge the battery at a more regulated rate.
If you purchase directly from apple they’re going to charge around $79 whereas you can often find them on eBay for much less.
