Welcome to
Daily Deals, the post where the staff of
MacNN searches online retailers for offers, bundles, sales, and discounts on hardware, software, games, and gadgets for you, the discerning reader. The new deals joining the still-alive deals on the list include a pair of 120GB SSDs for $85, a 24-inch Monoprice gaming monitor for $160, and an Onkyo 5.2-channel receiver for $180.
As always, the deals are live at the time of this posting. If you're reading this a few hours after the post, check pricing before you check out! Scroll down to the bottom of the post for the latest price changes on the OS X and iOS app stores.
For the time being, we aren't listing eBay deals on Apple computers that could still be under warranty. We've discovered, and confirmed through the work of one of our readers, that Apple doesn't fully honor service commitments to purchasers of gear through the eBay marketplace not made through an authorized reseller -- and refurbished gear sellers don't count as authorized resellers. We'll post good deals on older hardware we find, but
caveat emptor applies.
