So I was just at the Apple Refurbished Store, looking at the cinema displays when I noticed that Apple is intentionally misleading customers with the price differentials. Example:
Refurbished Apple Cinema HD Display (23-inch flat panel w/ aluminum enclosure)
Original price: $1,999.00
Your price: $1,099.00
Well, the SAME EXACT display retails in the Apple Store now for $1,299.00, not $1,999.00. Furthermore, with the education discount, the 23" display is $1,099.00, the same price as the refurbished. Seems like a bit of a rip-off, and some VERY misleading information on Apple's part.
