Hi GZ'rs,

 

Both my APPLE MagSafe chargers have slowly developed gammy plugs (only the older one works at all now) - have tried cleaning them etc but the magnet/spring/contact's are still 'gammy'.. dunno if it's gunk in them or if the springs etc or something are wearing anyway without pulling them apart (too hard for us) we can only fit new plugs or get new chargers.

 

The chargers themselves usually die/melt before the plugs fail so maybe someone has a dead charger & can spare the plug (preferably w/lead) ?

 

Either style is perfectly fine.

I have a brand new A1343 85w charger here.  I bought it thinking I had a faulty charger, but it turned out to be the Mac.  It's not in the original box, but has all the plastic wrapping still on it and has been in a zip lock bag to keep it clean and tidy pending some future use that never happened.

 

If you were interested...  $40 incl courier sound reasonable with 6 month warranty?

Wow, not having much luck w/these things, am again after an APPLE 85 Watt MagSafe charger.

 

Charger needs to be MagSafe (not MagSafe 2), OEM Apple & in good nick.

 

If someone else has one floating about, flick me a PM please.
