    For everyone saying these prices are good. Are all those low storage, low ram, low core models? Prices on anything above 1tb Storage & 16 ain’t that still 2,499-3k$?

      Yes. The MacBook in the picture is the 14” M3 Pro with no upgrades. Typically $2,000

    How long will this deal be on the best buy? Is there any chance they dropping price more on the m3/m3 pro on the black Friday or for coming Christmas and new year?

    Buy it from Apples Black Friday deal & get a $200 gift card for a future purchase, this looks like Best Buy used that deal and cashed in on their own

    Deflation is here man. No one has any money. I would expect post-holiday prices to look drastically different than pre-holiday prices in many categories.

      So different than come Spring time, expect Apple to make a cheaper MacBook.

      Think M1 inside the body of the old Haswell/Broadwell-era MacBook Air.

    Nice. Here the cheapest M3 Pro equipped Macbook Pro is at 2348,50 euro’s. Without tax 1854,92. Or 2025,11 USD excluding taxes.

    The base M3 version can be had for 1849 euro’s tho.

    I am jealous of the US pricing ngl. Even with tax it’d be cheaper.

      well, the base m3 costs R$ 16649 or roughly 3400 USD, cheapest m3 pro is 4250 USD in Brazil

      we’re all thankful that our government places 92% import fees/taxes on these items

        When it arrives, the customs office is keeping it, till you pay the tax for it. So basically it would be the same if you buy it inside the country.

          I know for replica watches and clothes it won’t happen or happens rarely if you declare that the package is worth less than 21 euro, I guess there’s some shady business out there which maybe resells apple products this way maybe?
