~~12" Gold (1.1GHz/8GB/256GB) for $899.00 ($400 discount)~~

B&H has inexplicably raised the price of this deal prior to its planned expiration. We have followed up for an explanation.

This deal from Apple authorized reseller B&H Photo is for Apple's 12" Gold MacBook (1.1GHz/8GB/256GB) model MK4M2LL/A, first introduced roughly 12 months ago at the suggest retail price of $1,299.00. This $899 price point is the lowest price we've ever seen for a 12" MacBook, period. It's also $400 off MSRP and the lowest current price for this model by $100, according to our Mac Price Guide.

What's more, B&H will ship this out with expedited shipping within one business day and it won't collect sales tax on your order if you ship it to an address outside NY.
