Paul, we picked up a 21.5" 2013 i7 iMac refurb awhile back (fall 2014), and it's a screamer. Looks like it's still available for $1359. Not sure if you can score a fusion or SSD, or possibly 16GB RAM for it. With 8GB, we run Mavs internally and have El Cap externally. 2015 i7 refurb's seem to vaporize pretty quickly. CL and ebay may have better deals.

IHMO, that seems like a lot of money. Seems like you are paying a premium for an i7? But then hampered by a small 21" screen.
An i5 with fusion drive would be far faster in day to day tasks.
