I checked out the macconnection.com site for the MacBook Pro. Price was $1815.00 after rebate, but shipping was not free, and there was sales tax of $187.00. How did you find free shipping and no tax on that site?

N. Bird, you are correct, according to an Apple rep who I spoke with on 12/2 after posting my reply to the original post. The other thing is, my customer sales person from Apple was able to offer me a 6% discount on the spot when I told them of the $50 differential between Amazon's price and theirs. I know!! Her response: "Yeah, not enough people ask for a discount when they call, but they should!" All told, with tax (from both the Apple store AND Amazon), I'd have saved $2 by buying from Amazon... Not worth it! I'm buying my iMac direct from Apple for peace of mind.

Thanks so much for the tip! I also answered my own question by searching Amazon, and found that Amazon sells Applecare as well, at a much lower price than buying direct from Apple.

The website has free shipping on all orders but this offer ends on 12/31/09.I'm going to purchase this device and an extra armband on payday (tomorrow) from their website as it's currently a lower price ($159) :)

I have three reasons... 1. It's $15-20 less expensive. 2. I have amazon Prime with 2 day express shipping 3. I was able to upgrade the shipping to receive the iPad Air the same day I ordered it for only $3.99. I ordered it at 5am and had it in my hands by 3pm the same day. Amazon is great!

Yes, their price is $349 - but they show us saving $50 from the "list price" of $399. The list price is in fact $349 - we are therefore saving nothing. Which I am fine with since it is new, but feel the claim of savings is deceptive.

It was probably offered for $9.71 by a 3rd party seller who did not include the shipping costs into their list price. This annoys me when it happens too.

The price is $7.49. There are other buying choices with that price plus shipping

After posting my earlier question I called the Apple Store and was told that they could ship a fully loaded iPod Touch (with the new applications) today. The price would still be $299.At their website they are showing the new apps to be email, notes, maps, weather, etc.I have emailed Amazon to ask if they have the same offer.

Please note there are many different sellers of this item with their own prices and policies. Questions about shipping should be directed to the specific seller. Also note that many "free" shipping offers merely have the shipping charges added into the item cost. Many people seems to think that $7 plus "free" shipping is better than $3.00 + $3.00 shipping!

I think Apple announced that "deal" on iLife just after I purchased this. BTW...I'm not sure that the "deal" is free. I just looked at apple.com and it looks like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are $20 each...not expensive, but not free. So not sure about that announcement. Doesn't seem to be in effect currently.

Hello and thanks for asking. Any order placed on Amazon for $35.00 or greater does receive free shipping. But when Amazon runs out of stock on an item, then they let us, the merchant, do the order fulfillment. Our problem is that we're not Amazon and can not afford to provide free shipping on a $35.00 item. (This is why we work with Amazon - they can because they have the resources.) Amazon should have the Softgrip iPad Air Handle back in stock within a week to 10 days. If you can wait that time then you're be able to order it from Amazon with the free shipping. I'm sorry but we sold out of this item much faster than we thought. Thanks again for contacting us.

It's because Apple rarely offers discounts. Think about it...Apple's Itunes charges "hit songs" for $1.29 instead of $.99 or $1.00 like Amazon and almost any other online store. Also, the only time Apple has a sale from my knowledge is black friday. And for how much? Like 10% ($1,199 macbook pro is discounted by $110 cheaper on black friday). The only other time Apple gives something back to their customers is their offers when you buy things like a computer (ex: we will throw in a free ipod touch or give you $50 off if you're a student)...big deal when you are paying that kind of money. Apple products are almost always cheaper online through other sites. Don't get me wrong, I love Apple's products but I don't love how they manage their sales. I realize you can debate about you are paying for what you get, but I disagree how apple never offers discounts when other company's do.
