What's a good price for the Apple MDE14LL/A?
A good price for the Apple MDE14LL/A is $1,499 or less. A quarter of the 7 prices we've recorded from Dec 16, 2025 to Oct 31, 2026 were at or below that, and the lowest was $1,349.99. The middle of our records is $1,837. Our rubric says a price at the bottom of an item's history, and not one that pops up every week, can earn an A or a B. Anything over $1,944 is above every price we've recorded, and our rubric gives a price above an item's usual range a D or an F.
