I have seen the black macbook on two separate websites that give near the same discription and definatly the same specs but with nearly a £400 price difference. The MB404B/A for £840 and the MB404LL/A for £484.03

Can anybody tell me the difference between them and why for the same specs??


Thanks

They are both the same? What are your sources for these models?

Macbook models

I have looked there already and wasn't happy with the price when I can get it for much cheaper. Apple store UK sells the Blackbook for £949 (about $1862.03) which is a joke...annoys me when the same thing costs more just because it is in the UK. Sort it out please apple.

Appreciate the sources aren't the most reliable, but for £840 from amazon I think it might be worth the risk. If it turns out badly I'll let you know. Thanks for your advice.

Amazon's reseller has good ratings, I think you'll find that one the best.

And wow, that is a hefty price just for being in the UK. Ridiculous to me.

It's tax, the US price tag doesn't include tax whereas the UK one includes the hefty 17.5% (which over $150 for the blackbook) that our government charges

Doesn't surprise me as we seem to get taxed for everything else! But that's a whole different issue :)
