M1 MacBook Employee Purchase Program (EPP)

I got my standard 6% discount ordering my M1 MacBook Air through my employer’s EPP. So I got the M1 MacBook Air 16/512 8-Core GPU model for $1362 plus tax.
The Macbooks are on the Apple Employee Purchase Program F&F store with the 15% discount, just to be sure?
Why don't you just ask the person who is going to get the discount for you?
I’m not incredibly surprised to see the 15% is there.
As a former Apple employee, I remember it taking sometimes weeks If not months before the full 25% EPP.
I think the Intel Macs were the very rare exception.

6% is the standard discount Apple offers on Macs to employees of companies who sign up for the discount program (they are usually also volume buyers of Apple products). It also falls under the EPP umbrella.
Interesting. Thank you for the info! 6% is not much as Amazon is giving $40 and Costco $30 off already + extra warranty. There was a comment above about 25% discounts, so it sounds like the discount % fluctuates? When it's a new product, it's low, but as it ages, it gets bigger (up to 25%?). Does that sound about right?
Typically it's constant. 6% is common for Macs. 10% for AppleCare, and 2% for iPhones and iPads. The discounts aren't much, and typically resellers have better deals a month or so after new releases. I'm not sure if Apple is planning any Black Friday deals (likely not), but I would expect some resellers to.
Apple or other Companies? I used my companies Employee Purchase discount with Apple to buy mine
