Discount Prices

Last week we threw in a table of suggested retail prices for a number of Macintosh models mostly because we had it on hand and thought it might be interesting to read and to refer to in the future. Charlie Mingo promptly sent us a table of published discount prices from various vendors listed in 15-Sep-92 issue of the New York Times, and we added in a couple from the 20-Sep-92 Seattle Times. The different vendors account in part for strange differences in prices, but one way or another, we think you’ll find this table more interesting. Please note that we are not pushing any specific vendors here, so you’ll have to find a dealer yourself, and that dealer may not have the volume of a New York City or Seattle store to match these prices. But next time you’re in the city…
