Yeah it's sad they're moving this model. Like some fast fashion retailers where they pretend like MSRP is MSRP and it's always on sale to create a sense of urgency

For anyone considering buying ... This is same price at Costco but a longer return window and better customer service than Amazon ... YMMV

M4 Mac Mini with 16GB cost me $499 with student discount last year. Plenty fast for years to come. These new prices are far too high IMO

I got my M4 for $423 after 5% cash back with my Micro Center credit card. I upgraded the internal storage to 2GB, and it's faster now. No reason to pay almost triple the M4 price for a 30% to 40% gain in speed.

Same here, grabbed mine at BB for $400 and had $200 RZ points to get it cheaper and it runs really fast and smooth everyday even plays some games decent. These new prices are crazy for any hardware anymore. Thanks AI.
