Researching buying a computer for my son and was considering a refurb July, 11 Mini 2.5 i5 with at least 4 GB RAM, 500 GB HD and AMD Radeon HD 6630M. New on Amazon these are listed at $699.
Apple store had same model refurb listed at same $699.
I noticed today that the refurb store had the same release date but the 2.7 i7 with more (8GB) RAM and same HD and Graphics card listed at $679.
I quickly purchased the 2.7GHz and called Apple to make sure this was indeed the same gen with faster processor and more RAM at $20 cheeper.
They researched and said it must be a mistake (and I should definitely complete the purchase - which I did) and would be "red flagging it." I now see that that itineration is no longer available.
So, was the 2.5 model overpriced or the 2.7 incorrectly underpriced.
I also see for point of reference the 2.7 i7 model with 256 SSD and 4GB is listed at $889.
Thanks for the feedback
