Picked up three of the Shuffles yesterday. Just a note for anyone intent on buying and wondering why there are two 'silver' coloured shuffles listed - there are two versions of the second generation shuffle:

September 2006 - Pink, Orange, Green, Blue, Silver.
September 2007 - Emerald, Turquoise, Purple, (RED), Silver.

Although it doesn't make this distinction obvious on the store page, if you buy the uppermost Silver colour then you're buying a Shuffle between one and two years old. Buy the lowermost version, which is located beneath the (RED) product, and your shuffle is less than a year old.

Now I get to enjoy a day off, and to top it off, I'll get to play with my new Air... only one thing missing to make it a perfect day!

markpalavra · #25 (**permalink**) 30th July 2008, 12:22 PM

Shes here, and it looks brand new.

Reubania · #26 (**permalink**) 30th July 2008, 05:42 PM

I changed my order. Wasn't happy with a lot of negative reviews on the Time Capsule. So bought an AEBS instead. Sorry for giving you guys another big spike

I see that instead of shipping in 24hours, I will be getting this product in 4-8 August. BOO

What do they normally ask for a refurb mac pro?

areal · #28 (**permalink**) 30th July 2008, 06:16 PM

I haven't seen a 2008 Mac Pro on the refurbished store, but a stock 2006 Mac Pro sells for something like $2699.

hmm ok, thats not so good

Reubania · #30 (**permalink**) 30th July 2008, 06:55 PM

No it's not.

But I think they will definitely come down in price once the new edition of the MB/MBP comes out later this year. So wait a bit more!

We are talking Mac Pro, not MacBook Pro.

Reubania · #32 (**permalink**) 30th July 2008, 07:04 PM

Sorry. My bad.

Shameless bump with updates to the pricing

hachoo · #34 (**permalink**) 13th August 2008, 06:38 PM

Glancing over the prices, I didn't see any changes. What's new?

vietnow · #35 (**permalink**) 14th August 2008, 08:25 PM

here's another free bump, but if you actually call apple and ask about the refurbished macs they can give you up-to-date stocks: for instance i got a 13" 2.16 2gig ram BlackBook for $1300 because nobody had bought it and it had been sitting there.

lesson number 1: do not be afraid to call them.
lesson number 2: be in the right place at the right time.

but again, give them a call and ask what stocks they have available and for what price, they're super helpful.

Mac Mini is up on the refurb store again:

Refurbished Mac mini 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
1GB memory
80GB hard drive
Combo drive (DVD-ROM/CD-RW)
Intel GMA 950 graphics processor with 64MB of DDR2 memory
$699

The 80GB iPod Classic (Black or Silver) is now only $229. So cheap!

khalil · #38 (**permalink**) 17th August 2008, 05:11 PM

I am not sure if i should be posting this in this thread and if people know about this, but new ipods are expected mid September, so that's probably the reason for the cheap ipods.
