Purchasing either one of the older operating systems will result in an email with a content code that can be redeemed within the Mac App Store.

Note: Redemption codes are usually delivered within 1 business day but may occasionally take longer.Previously, users were able to purchase a copy of Lion, but doing so required a phone call to Apple. OS X Mountain Lion was available via the Mac App Store earlier this week, but it has since been removed in favor of Mavericks, leaving the new online purchasing system as the only way to acquire an older Apple OS. Customers who have previously purchased Lion or Mountain Lion can download the operating systems through the "Purchases" tab of the Mac App Store.
