Im trying to buy an Imac for my father 27" low end.


Where can i buy the cheapest one i want it new. Is the apple student discount the cheapest it can get?

If you live in NA (you didn't specify), you could take a look at this: http://www.appleinsider.com/mac_price_guide/

Which country are you in?

Well in US, it's about $1500 .. i don't know for your country. In my country the price is a bit expensive than US$ counterpart, but in a negligible difference.

Maybe the extra $$ is use to pay taxes, shipping and also a lil profit for the store

I always have and always will buy from Apple Refurbished online store. The refurbs are just as good if not better than new (because they've been back for a second and more thorough check with mostly new parts).

Have you seen some good deals with that Mac Pricing Guide I linked to?

Also take a look at the refurbished section of the Apple Online Store to find better deals.
