Boy Genius Rumor: Up to 25% off Macs, 30% off iPods for Black Friday

[Sky Blue]

Like I said, it is blatantly obvious that the ad is fake. That faded picture of the Apple logo has been floating around the interwebs for years, I even had it as my phone background a while back. Apple PR never uses Google image search content in the making of ads:

Pretty much seals the deal on the fakeness.

If you believe the rumors then you're totally screwed dude.

The OP isn't called "EasyRider" for nothing!

OH how I wish this was true.

25% and Apple don't mix, not even for the iPod socks.

fatwallet is saying MacMall is going to have the intro level iMac for $999 on BF

Very nice.

So...do we have a pool of the number of people that will get trampled this year?

Not sure why but this made me LOL

On a side note does Apple do black friday in the UK or other countries?

Seeing that Thanksgiving is a US holiday, I'd say no?

But I also see threads with UK'ers asking if they should wait until black friday to buy. Clarification anyone?

Why did they merge all of the threads and then make a new one for themselves?

if you bought it from the apple store

I just came back from my local Apple store and picked up a 27" i5. On the way home (read rss feed at red lights) I see this: http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009/11/16/apples-black-friday-deals-leaked/

If this is true, am I screwed? Would apple ever give that discount to someone who just bought an iMac within 14 days of a sale?

Should I open the i5 and enjoy, or wait the 12 days in hopes of getting a store credit or return and re-buy with discount?

you are already screwed regardless of this fake sale posted here

deals from amazon, macconnection are far, far better, offering NO SALES TAX, $100+ rebates and free shipping

you could have saved right there...
