Carousel is now flooded with beats headphones going at half price or less. Impossible to unload them now at a decent price.

Impossible to unload them now at a decent price.

Aas it was last year as well. Nothing surprising.

I thought about getting this deal but decided to get B&H to price match my .edu discount on my custom built iMac and then save on tax. I’d rather save the money and buy headphones I actually want.

 

[swm]

well, if those beats are so good, i'll be buying them anyway if i get some discount on my "school" gear... or maybe spend this "free" money differently. last year's 10% off from iPad pro bough me the 128GB model at the price of the 32GB one, and i got a free apple pencil to it in addition. there ain't no headphones that can _beat_ this deal

I thought about doing this deal to upgrade my iPad Pro, but Apple raised the price by $50. Now I'll wait a bit to find a decent discount.

1. Raise ipad pro price by $50
2. Give free $100 headphones that cost a dollar to make
3. Profit???

I'm a working adult currently living paycheque to paycheque, but I understand the plight of the college student. They have to work, and go to school, and study. Very few students are your stereotypical trust fund baby. My family paid my first semester's tuition, and that's it. I had to pay for everything else on my own.

It’s not even remotely possible to pay today’s tuition by working part time, so students who don’t have rich parents just end up taking on massive debt, even if they work. Free headphones won’t help much, but hey, every little bit counts I guess.

Wow that's just wrong... Apple really need to start thinking about their international customers as well!!! If it's good for one its good for all. Us Australian students would benefits of this too... Oh that's right we're that little country far far away that everyone seems to forget when it's got to do with high end products!

I don’t whine about not getting promos from countries based in other countries. Not sure why folks feel compelled to do so here.

At least the “me too” entitlement isn’t strictly an American thing.

I just picked up a 13” MacBook Air and Beats wireless Solo 3 for my brother for $900, which is $100 less than an iPhone X

That comparison is like saying my armoire cost less than your Labradoodle.

There seems to be a problem with the Education Store. Am I the only one unable to log in? Both the Sign In and Continue as Guest buttons seem to do nothing when I click them.
