16GB/1TB storage. Apple Refub (like new) is $110 cheaper than the same suggestion on BestBuy.

16GB/1TB storage. I assume it's eligible for Applecare.

Anyone have any opinions if we're going to see lower prices before Apple decides not to manufacture the M2 any more and stock runs out? I need to get a computer for my daughter for college (she starts in August) to replace her 2017 Macbook. She doesn't need super performance but I want it to last her for at least 4 more years and I think having at least 16GB is a big deal. And it's going to be her main source of media viewing while she's living on campus, which is why I'd rather get a 15".

In my opinion, maybe you could find "the best deal" for $100-$150 less until August. But also, I think, it could be sold out on Apple website and you will have to buy it on 3rd party place.

This is regularly $1499 brand new at BestBuy. Basically every weekend or every other weekend they do it for 3 days. Been this way for past 3 months.

You might want to consider the 13 inch model. Hauling the 15 inch to class might feel like a chore after awhile.

They are probably referring to the 13" that are $1350 at Microcenter
