I got in on the "used-like new" during prime day for $318. Just set it up last night and it was basically brand new. Support said it was still good through March, I added purchase date and it pushed through October 2026. And I have 60 days if I want to add AppleCare+. Great deal.

Check open box at micro center. I got it for $360ish a month ago. Even gave me 60 days to activate apple care if I wanted too, but did not.

I'm sure the M5 Mac Mini is around the corner which means these will probably go cheaper. I'll wait.

I was waiting for this to get back down to $499. Glad I waited instead of purchasing a used Mac Mini on eBay or Amazon.

The Mac Mini M4 basic has been this price for a few weeks across various retailers.

I got mine for $499 from Costco a week or so ago because they have a 2 year warranty be default

Hard to say, they released the macbook pro / ipad pro M5 models today... but no sign of M5 macbook air or mini yet. I'm guessing the M4 mini will stay discounted until they drop the M5 model.

$499 is the regular price on the edu apple site (no verification) & if you can get gift cards at a discount it makes it even cheaper

I got the same deal as well. But I already have an M1 Mac Mini so I'm debating if I actually want to keep it. Granted it is crazy cheap.

Yeah, I have an M1 as well and not sure what to do with it now. I ran the migration over and all came over OK. But wow, the footprint is soooo much smaller with the M4.
