Black Friday shopping tips

We tend to find that the best savings are on older models.

Check the generation of the model that is discounted to make sure you know exactly what you are buying and what it’s really worth.

We’ve seen resellers switch to selling refurbished or used when the stock of brand-new models run out, so check that the model discounted isn’t actually a used Mac and therefore not as good a deal as it might look.

That’s not to say you should avoid refurb models – you just need to make sure that you aren’t buying refurb without knowing.

Mac deals aren’t limited to Black Friday. We see good deals all year round, so don’t feel pressured into buying during Black Friday.
