[MacRumors]

Amazon today has Apple's 16-inch MacBook Pro (10-Core M1 Pro, 512GB) for $2,449.99, down from $2,499.00. This remains the lowest price we've tracked on this model, and as of writing Amazon is the only major Apple reseller offering this discount.

Only the Silver color option is available at this price, and it's being shipped and sold directly from Amazon.

16-Inch MacBook Pro (512GB) for $2,449.99 ($49 OFF)​

There are a few other new MacBook Pros being discounted on Amazon, but you'll find delayed shipping estimates for most. The 14-inch MacBook Pro (8-Core M1 Pro, 512GB) is available for $1,949.99, down from $1,999.00, but it won't ship until late November. The same estimate can be found for the 1TB 16-inch model.

This will likely continue to be a trend as we head further into the holiday season, as Apple's own website has most models of the 2021 MacBook Pro shipping in late November and early December. If you're looking at these for holiday presents, the earlier you order the more you'll ensure a timely delivery.

Always good to see discounts on Apple tech, but $49 off $2,499 is only a 2% discount... Note: This $49 off only applies to the Silver model, and not the Space Gray $2,499 model on Amazon.

 

[gaximus]

Not a good deal, take the 3% cash back and get it from Apple.

 

[DrMotownMac]

Does anyone know what the approximate wholesale cost of a computer like that is? In other words, how much does Amazon pay for it?

 

[Ploki]

Lol what a bargain

 

[nathan_reilly]

[kemal]

Does Amazon Prime 5% apply as well?

I would wager a guess that the markup percentage is not all that different from other products in retail. However, I do believe that Apple plays a significant role in manipulating the percentage of discounts, likely through terms and conditions placed on authorized resale outlets.

 

[sdhalpern]

$49! Wow!!!

 

[wilberforce]

No 14-day "no questions asked" return period like Apple. Can only return if damaged or unopened. Not a good deal.

If Amazon took Apple Pay, maybe I could justify it. But you're right, just order from Apple.

 

[SSDGUY]

I'm gonna get me 2 Apple polishing cloths and a fancy coffee with that extra $50!

Costco UK have some sweet deals on the 14" & 16", £1-200 off, just waiting for Amazon to follow suit.

 

[reden]

What a savings.

 

[sw1tcher]

So same price as Costco and with less warranty

Not a good deal, take the 3% cash back and get it from Apple extra year warranty (or extra 3 year warranty if paying with Costco Citi Visa card) and get it from Costco.

?

 

[urbanslaughter1997]

WOW, that's almost 2%, not quite, but almost.

 

[byulasfjazz]

When I’m dropping $2500 ..I’m not getting excited on saving $50

 

[ilikewhey]

why not just use education?

 

[TheLinkster]

$50? That's two-and-a-half apple cloths!

 

[awer25]

This is what happens with Amazon affiliate links. Every site pushes their products to make a buck off your purchase. It's obvious this isn't a good deal, but it makes MR money so it's front page.

Thanks for the chuckle. Needed it today!

 

[dumastudetto]

Great deal for the world's best laptop.

Thanks for sharing it!

Not only that, but Apple has currently extended its return window to account for computers purchased as Christmas gifts. A computer purchased through Apple could be returned as late as January... Not so with Amazon.

For a moment I though this was Onion article... 49$ discount on the original 2500$...

Am I too late? Is it already destocked?
