Not bad! I just ordered Mac OS X from MacMall...

$119.99 - Mac OS X
$10.95 - FedEx Saturday Shipping (10:30 AM EST 3/24/01)
$130.94 - TOTAL
After $20 mail in rebate: $110.94

This is actually cheaper than retail.
Retail price is $129 + 6% sales tax = $136.74

So now I don't have to feel bad about the people ordering from the Apple Store and getting it delivered Saturday for $129.

Ummm... If you call MacZone you can order it for $99.97 plus shipping. You don't have to send in for a refund either. That's $10 cheaper than their online price. Check out their site for details. I don't know how much shipping is but standard overnight is $10.95. So that makes it $110.82. You don't have to pay more and then wait for a refund. Personally, I'd rather save now instead of later. Maybe that's because I think waiting for refunds sucks.

(No I don't work for them. I just happened to be checking prices today.)
