I'm curious to see where the pricing structure is coming from.

For example: Apple MacBook Pro ME864LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop with Retina Display (NEWEST VERSION) $382.32

It's a compelling business idea, and I understand there's a need to generate a profit, yet the math seems a little off.

I looked into this and the price is now $472. (HN traffic is stress-testing our pricing engine) For this item, we relied on Amazon's trade-in price, which we want to get away from very soon. (because the prices are too low, imho)
