Black Friday shopping tips
- We tend to find that the best savings are on older models.
- Check the generation of the model that is discounted to make sure you know exactly what you are buying and what it’s really worth.
- We’ve seen resellers switch to selling refurbished or used when the stock of brand-new models run out, so check that the model discounted isn’t actually a used Mac and therefore not as good a deal as it might look.
- That’s not to say you should avoid refurb models – you just need to make sure that you aren’t buying refurb without knowing. This is a good discount on an ‘Open Box’ MacBook Pro that is unused for example: Walmart, MacBook Pro, 16-inch, M1 Pro chip, 16-core GPU, $1,799 ($700 off)!
- Mac deals aren’t limited to Black Friday. We see good deals all year round, so don’t feel pressured into buying during Black Friday.
- However, if you are outside the U.S. we expect that these will be the best prices you will ever see based on clear indications that Apple is likely to increase Mac prices some point, as it did to iPad prices following the launch in October. Read more about that here: Is Apple ripping off the rest of the world with inflated prices?
- If you are in the U.K. you have probably noticed that KRCS is offering the best deals. If you want to know who KRCS is and find out more read: KRCS beats everyone’s Black Friday Mac deals in the UK.
