Powermac clearout?

wow. a Quad for that price... it's time's like these I really wish I was in the U.S. or UK.

btw - for anyone wondering, the UK refurb store is here:
http://promo.euro.apple.com/promo/refurb/uk/
it's funny though, i couldn't see any items in the UK refurb store?

the U.S. refurb store though, has had 15-32% off on various model PM G5's for a few weeks now...

unfortunatley Apple Australia doesn't sell refurb - they just auction them to resellers, who in turn sell to the public. still i saw a really good deal last week - Dual 2.7 G5 for AU$2399!! i was way too slow on that one and missed out... but chances like that are few and far between here in Aus.

I can only hope that they'll send over some refurb Quads so they can get into the Aussie market for a good price.

 

Crazy prices! Wish i had money for Quads and was in the UK.

 

i swear i went to the link i posted yesterday, and there were no items listed?!

20% off a Quad is pretty good. i'm getting really desprate now... my PB has been in the shop for 13 days now to replace a dead hard drive. and it seems as if there's a drought of refurb/2nd hand PowerMac's on Aussie soil. i'm beginning to seriously consider buying a refurb from the U.S. or U.K. store and just do without the warranty...

question: i know the warranty on the machine is only vaild on PowerMac's in the country of puchase. as well as AppleCare. but i can't get it into Australia and then purchase Aussie AppleCare for it can i? i've got a feeling that would be too convenient...
