Refurb / 2011 iMac buying options

chilly willy · Nov 15, 2012, 10:04 AM

I'm seriously considering going the refurb route - for various reasons, and yes I understand I'd still be buying "old" specs for premium.

Having hard time finding many refurb options. Apple store has a few, MacMall -none from what I see. Where else might I look for 2011 iMacs??

Apple's refurb inventory changes constantly, sometimes a few times a day. If you're looking for a particular item, refurb.me can alert you when it becomes available.

Are you looking for the 21.5" or 27"? A few places still have some in stock.

27"

I'm looking for a 21.5 - Apple Store is out of stock and given the situation (no new iMacs available, possibly until next year) I'm not hopeful. Are there any other suggested sellers?

These are hard to find... I'd keep an eye on the refurb store or maybe Ebay/Amazon. J&R, B&H, etc. appear to be out. Bestbuy in my area is but you can check yours...

There are a couple places that still have them in stock. B&H seems to be the best deal besides the refurb store.
