Good sources for Mac clearance sales?

[illgiveumorality]

Hey all, used to get catalogs like MacMall all the time, but haven't in years... can anyone think of similar places for clearance sales?

There's always Apple's own Refurb/Clearance store.

Also, there's the DealMac site.

Also don't forget about Apple's store for Education, which offers a bit of a discount over the retail prices if you're eligible.

When the new models come out you can get decent deals on shelf displays at Best Buy

I got my MD103 (retail 1799) for ~900 in damn near mint condition

If you have a microcenter near you they sell some refurbs. I just picked up a 13" MBPr (late 2013) 8GB/256GB for $1299 (the newest version with the same ram/ssd and just a small speed bump is $1499)

Purchased from macofalltrades.com years ago.

I actually like buying things used from here. You know what you are getting, and people are honest (or so we all hope). Price is somewhat negotiable, trades possible... Just now I am waiting for 15" Retina MBPR to arrive.

Yeah the forums are a great place to get a deal on a Mac. Otherwise, as mentioned, Best Buy has clearance sales right before Apple releases their new gear.
