Best Price On Leopard I have found.....


I preordered Leopard through Amazon a few weeks ago.

The price was $129 for single license; $199 for family pack.

Lo' and behold today I found a significantly better price through
MacZone.

The price was $99 for single license; $143 for family pack.

Click Here

Anybody have experience with MacZone? Would love to order
through them, but not if a discounted price means I won't get the disc on time.

Re: Best Price On Leopard I have found.....


That seems like a great price, 24% and 29% discounts. I didn't know that Apple allowed their software, especially the newest OS, to be sold at such a discount. Let us know if you learn any more about MacZone and their pricing.

Re: Best Price On Leopard I have found.....


The rep at MacZone explained that they were once a direct
dealer for Apple but no longer. Now, Apple is back in their camp
and offering to share costs to promote this software at a lower
price point.

It all seemed a bit "odd" to me which is why I was trying to find
out how this company fared with any of you.

Re: Best Price On Leopard I have found.....


Apple charges $69 for Tiger at an educational discount, and hopefully will charge the same for Leopard. Is there a teacher or student who could get it for you?

And then when I feel so stuffed I can't eat anymore, I just use the restroom! And then I CAN eat more!

When Tiger was released, it was available pretty widely at a discounted $99 price. I picked up my copy at Fry's.

Ron,

I've ordered thru MacZone over the years and they've been fine. I've never had to return anything though so I can't really speak to that.

I've purchased from MacZone many times over the last 20 years. Not sure I have bought anything from them in a couple years though. I seem to recall they were bought by CWD.
