~/method

Method (open and verifiable)

  1. Sources: dedicated Mac mini providers that publish their prices publicly. Each source's URL and last check time are listed below.
  2. Frequency: hourly; conditional requests (ETag / If-Modified-Since), 20-second timeout per source, increasing back-off after errors, robots.txt respected; sources behind bot verification are not read and are listed as "skipped".
  3. Matching: Mac mini only; same chip family (M4 and M4 Pro are separate). For each source we take the lowest configuration price for that chip; memory/storage are shown for information. Plans shown as out of stock or coming soon are included at their public list price; their status is shown in the table. Mac Studio, Max/Ultra, Intel and shared/virtual plans are excluded.
  4. Unit: monthly list price, excluding tax. EUR prices are converted to USD at the ECB daily rate (rate and date below). Where a source page shows a "paid yearly" monthly equivalent, that is taken as the source's monthly price; this works against us because it makes the competitor look cheaper.
  5. Pricing rule: our monthly price = lowest matching competitor monthly price × 0.5 (rounded down). Prices never change automatically: every day at 11:00 the engine sends the proposal to the owner, and only an approved price is published. Daily, hourly and yearly prices derive from monthly (day = month/22, hour = day/19, year = 10 months).
  6. Truth guard: if the published price stays above half of the lowest competitor in the latest scan (a competitor cut prices and approval is pending), the "50% cheaper" label for that model is hidden automatically; if any model with competitor data fails the condition, the general statement in the page title is hidden too. The competitor average is informational and does not set the price.
