Microcenter has these prices for in-store all the time. And Best Buy will price match both Amazon and Microcenter (If a Microcenter has a store in the Area, that is).

I know I am beating a dead horse but the price for the storage upgrade is insane.

I thought you might get more cores or memory, but the $200 upgrade only includes a measly 256 GB SSD upgrade.

The base option is a good value, but any upgrade kills it.

I understand that if you need the memory, then you have to pay the Apple tax, but I don’t see how any but the most die hard fans would ever get the storage upgrades. I would just buy external storage. Even thunderbolt storage options would be way cheaper and I doubt most would notice the difference.

Never pay full retail at Apple, always cheaper elsewhere
