We're just a few days away from Black Friday in the United States, and today a few authorized Apple resellers -- B&H Photo and Adorama -- have kicked off holiday savings with discounts on a variety of Apple products and related accessories. These include deals on the latest iMacs, MacBook Pros, iPad Pros, Beats headphones, and even a few older models from previous generation devices.

B&H Photo

For B&H Photo, the retailer has launched its Black Friday Apple sale with discounts that hit brand-new 2017 MacBook Pro and iMac models, and even include the Mac Pro and Mac mini from 2013 and 2014 respectively. A few discounts on Beats By Dre headphones are also matching similar sales at Apple, although Amazon and Best Buy still have the best prices on some of these accessories.

Of the three big Apple resellers, MacMall is now the only site that hasn't yet posted its Black Friday savings, so you can expect those deals to show up sometime later in the week as Thanksgiving and Black Friday grow nearer. For now, you can visit our Black Friday Roundup to see the full lists of deals currently going on at B&H Photo and Adorama, as well as prepare your shopping lists with sale previews from Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and more.

That is the 4 core Mac Pro that was discontinued earlier this year. Apple's site had it on clearance for $2499. Others have been listing it for $1999 for a while.

That's an example of the consistent confusion MR creates in all their sale articles. They always say "down from," but never down from what. MSRP? The seller's previous price?

I was just at Best Buy. They are selling the 2017 32GB WiFi iPad for $269, and for those willing to brave the Black Friday crowds it will be $249. Not a big fan of Best Buy, but those are killer prices.

This tempting to replace my aging 3rd generation iPad.

You know you are supposed to report those on your annual tax forms if your state requires it, right?:eek:

On the other hand, I scored a better deal in early October from the AAFES for the iPad Pro 10.5 inch 256GB at $639 and legally tax free.;)

No Free Lunch.

There is this thing called "use tax". Do a search for use tax vs sales tax.

They might be coming to take you away ho-ho hee-hee ha-haaa

There is an allowance to a certain amount before you have to report use tax.
