It's essentially a reservation and when made, they pull the item from the shelf and set it aside for you to pick up. To order, add it to cart then provide your contact info and select the store location. When the item is ready for pickup, you'll receive an e-mail. To pickup, you just go to their pickup counter and provide them with your order number and ID and then provide payment.

Before the usual troll comments.

1 - It has "only" 256gb of storage. Yes, it sucks. USB4/Thunderbolt external NVMe/SSD will be a cheap addition, or get the aftermarket internal chip upgrade.

2 - It's still expensive. Ok, provide a link to machine that has comparable performance and capabilities in a similar form factor for this price.

Can guarantee my responses are more helpful than yours in these threads.
And yet, they were devalued because you had to be unkind. Imagine if you were a little bit nicer to people instead of slinging insults.

And you get a keyboard, trackpad, decent speaker (unlike the awful integrated in the mini), microphone, and a 13" high DPI "retina" screen. All that for $400-450 isn't a terrible deal.

It must really upset you, knowing that people are dismissing your viewpoints simply because you've felt the need to be unkind. All that time making a well thought out point, poof. Gone. You won't get that time back.

Sunk cost fallacy. You know, just because you did something wrong, doesn't mean you have to keep doing something wrong.

It costs nothing to be nice, and yet, you're insistent on running a negative balance.

I was easily able to price match this at Best Buy. They just asked for my zip code to ensure that I would be able to pick it up hypothetically from a location, I'm guessing. Such a great deal!
