Best Buy is currently offering Apple’s 12-inch MacBook 1.2GHz/8GB/512GB in all colors for $1,249.99 shipped. That’s a $349.01 savings off the regular price, $50 less than Apple charges for the 256GB model and the best that we’ve ever seen.

Additionally, Best Buy’s eBay Store is offering even deeper savings on open-box models (prices vary by color and capacity). These are certified to be in excellent condition. It’s a great way to save even more on Apple’s ultra-portable MacBook.

The 12-inch MacBook has a newly redesigned aluminum chassis and Retina display. It ships with a 1.2GHz m5 Intel Core processor and 8GB of RAM. Additionally, it features 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0 and Apple’s Force Touch Trackpad.

The moment you open your MacBook, its gorgeous 12-inch Retina display with edge-to-edge glass brings everything into focus. Every photo leaps off the screen in rich, vibrant detail. Over 3 million pixels render each letter with crystal clarity. And it all comes to light on the thinnest Retina display ever on a Mac, meticulously honed to deliver a bold visual experience within an impossibly minimal design. We believe that a comfortable, full-size keyboard is essential for a great notebook experience. But to fit one into the elegantly thin MacBook, we had to completely rethink how a keyboard is engineered and constructed. We redesigned each key and its underlying mechanism — not only making the whole keyboard much thinner, but also allowing for more comfortable, precise, and responsive typing that just feels right.
