I recently got my MBA 13" 128 / 4GB and this is how I was able to get the lowest price delivered:

Macmall is selling it for $1359 with no tax for most states.
http://www.macmall.com/n/macNavLinks-304?q=8233198

But to order, first go through Fatwallet.com - they have a 3% Rebate on Macmall (Need to be Registered with FW ) which will save you further $40 - Though the rebate will show up within a couple of days, you get the money after a month or two. http://www.fatwallet.com/coupons-cash-back/MacMall/

I am not affiliated to either of the two sites but have been a member at FW since 5-6 yrs and have always got my rebate.

Total cost delivered to most states for the above (new) MBA = $1309

Similar discounts can be had on other models as well - this is what i bought in Dec so i am sharing that. Just remember to click through FW link to get the rebate.

If you use http://www.appleinsider.com/mac_price_guide/ to get to MacMall to buy it, you get the 3% discount without having to sign up for FW or anything like that :)

I tried the link to macmall - it shows as $1318 - and then changes to 1359.xx in the cart! :confused:

If this would work, then i would add it to cart at $1318 and then go through FW to get further 3% rebate - THAT would be a killer price ! - too bad i already bought mine :)
 
macmall charges tax in New york :( is there a place like macmall where i can buy MBA with no tax to New york?

Just tried the FatWallet deal with the AppleInsider deal and the FatWallet deal didn't work.

If you did it right, check back into your account at FW in 2-3 days - the rebate will show up (its not instant)

Here is how it showed up in my FW account a couple of days later: 12/14/2010 MacMall Affiliate Advantage Network $1,359.00 $40.77 Reported

cant you get 5% from shopdiscover and 3% from FW too ?
 
Omg the prices you pay in the states for a Mac are ridiculously low compared to here in Denmark (Scandinavia / Europe). ;) The same spec MBA as the thread starter stated is 1.968$ here in Denmark. I payed 2.215$ for the 13" ultimate with 12% educational discount. The taxes in this country is ****ed up we have the highest tax rate in the world. :( My father have to pay 60% in taxes everytime he gets paid. :eek:

With educational discount, the Ultimate 13" MBA with 4 GB RAM costs $2.422 where I'm from (Norway). Full price is $2.632.

If you use the promo code link, it seems to work ok and puts the right price in your cart--certainly cheaper than the other retailers. I may have to give them a try.

What state are you from? Because macmall is located in California and they charged alot for tax. I just got mine today, but I have to return it because it has a big line across the screen (looks like the UPS guy might dropped it). I ordered mine through J&R.com. 4GB RAM, 256GB Flash Storage, 2.13Gzh, 13 inch for a total of $1779 and that's include expedited one day shipping.:)

Maryland.
 
To those who are confused with the MacMall thing through that link, the saving should be immediate. The prices listed on that website are the prices WITH the 3% discount.
 
Macmall is okay, but it is almost impossible to return your laptop. Make sure you are getting one that you want.

When I place my order on MacMall (either normally or using the discount), it never gives me any tax. I'm in Massachusetts.
