Best wholesale supplier for MacBook Pro charging ports?
Hey everyone, I'm trying to find a reliable wholesale supplier for MacBook Pro charging ports. We've been getting a lot of requests for charging port repairs lately, and I want to ensure we're sourcing high-quality parts. I've tried a couple of suppliers, but I've had some issues with quality and RMAs. I’d love to hear where you all are getting your charging ports from, what your experiences have been like, and how the pricing stacks up. Any specific recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

I've been sourcing MacBook Pro charging ports from iFixit and have had great luck with their parts. They provide solid quality, and I find their pricing to be competitive, usually around $15 per port. Their return policy is straightforward, which has helped when I’ve had to RMA a few defective units. They also have a great repair guide section that helps with the installation process. Plus, I really appreciate their bulk pricing for larger orders, which can help save some costs for our shop.
I used to buy from a supplier called OWC, but I've found their prices a bit higher, often around $20-$25 per port. The quality is decent, but I had to return a few after installation, which can be a hassle. I would recommend checking some local suppliers or even eBay for bulk options. Just be cautious with the quality and always test parts before installation to avoid customer complaints.
