hey my friend bought a 16 pro max 256 gb 8 months back....

now he offered me at 70K as second hand...
should I go for it... ( no damages..)

I'm looking for genuine advice from people who follow the MacBook market closely.

I've been saving for months to buy the MacBook Air (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) in India. A few days ago, I saw it drop to around ₹1,00,000 with offers, so I thought prices might continue to fall over the next couple of months.

However, recently I've seen prices shoot back up to around ₹1.2 lakh (and in some places even higher). From what I've read, this seems to be related to increasing memory/RAM prices and supply changes.

Now I'm confused.

Should I buy it now at around ₹1.2 lakh, or is it worth waiting until the August Independence Day sales in India? Do you think prices are likely to come back down, or is this the new normal and they could even increase further?

I'm not in an urgent rush—I can wait a month or two if there's a good chance of saving ₹10k–₹20k. But I also don't want to keep waiting only to see prices go up again.

If you've been tracking MacBook prices or understand Apple's pricing trends in India, I'd really appreciate your honest opinion.
