Apple usually has a 10% deal every month or so is this the best offer or is there any way of getting it cheaper any time? Education discount isnt too much.
I tried to bargain them down at JB Hifi on saturday and they really wernt interested in moving on the price at all.
Their refurb store is OK if it has the item you're after.
I'm pretty sure you get the full warranty and can buy AppleCare as well if desired.
