No catch. Every few months they have special coupons for "college students".

B&H still has them all for the extra $100 off.

I saw your post and you mentioned there that you only buy important(/expensive?) products directly from the manufacturer. B&H is an Apple Authorized Reseller, do you feel the same way about them?
Just curious to hear your opinion.

Not an Apple product no I would not. Bought my ipod 5 iphone 5 ipod 4 Nano's over the years apple pro all through Apple Store Apple Laptop Pro is the new 1.4ghz chip These dealers like Best Buy tend to sell the older chip and when it breaks they tell you to send it to Apple anyway and wash their hands of your purchase.. Apple even engraved most of the items for free.
Another thing when or if the unit needs fixing have to send it to Apple anyway so why not just buy direct. To each their own. I prefer my way less hassle.

That's what I used and it worked :)
All they seem to care about is the fact that it ends in a .EDU

Don't know if it helps for some sort of price match- but the price on the 13" is now $854 and 11" $760. (albeit coupon expired and device sold out online)

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.
