Maybe you can look in garage sales? Or did you mean even garage sales in LYN dont have much option? No worries... MacBook has a whole lot of accessories... Just scared people dont have money to buy them only =D

Added on April 18, 2010, 12:30 amWanna ask, those shipment tracking will only be available after it is shipped out right? Or did you guys get it from DHL website or something?
*
tracking only available after shipped out.. when ready to shipped.. u wont have tracking number..

btw.. in the garage sales.. dont have a section dedicated for apple mac book one right? must go to laptop there and find?

and to LESTER... is it every staff in apple reseller store can get discount? or just applicable to your Mac in SG? if in Malaysia also can get discount.. i wonder whether i can ask the staff.. hey.. can u give some 'personal discount' when i buy my magic mouse tongue.gif

Hmm... i'm getting myself a sleeve case so i can carry my mbp in any bag.
I think crumpler bags are nice too.
Got myself a crumpler camera bag from Singapore. Quite satisfied with the quality.
KLCC crumpler has limited stock. Waiting for them to restock takes ages.

i would like to get sleeve too.. mayb after u get it.. u can post a pic to show us? smile.gif

Hey there,

First of all, all accessories for macbook/apple in general are quite expensive and you have to spend on them =D
1) Yea invisible shield available. Its around RM170 as quoted in the garage sales... You can find more of them in the search function. Here is a sample link
i search there d... just wondering anyone using here?

2) Most ppl get moshi palmguard which cost around RM120 (palm guard protector including the trackpack protector also - it didnt state there but just let you know =) )
do u mean that the palm guard also included the trackpad protector and price is around RM120?

3) Im not so sure about sleeves you can check out the thread at the link below:
i read there d.. blur d.. tongue.gif

*
thanks for the answer notworthy.gif

No problem... glad I could help =D... Btw you can search more stuff in the garage sales for these type of accessories... Or maybe google for macbook accessories/sleeves/covers/etc and once you like a product then come into the garage sales and search for that item to see if any forumers bringing in.. Have fun!
*
yea.. i hv been searching in garage sales since 11pm just now.. but too bad they dont hv apple section tongue.gif after some study.. i found invisible shield not bad.. and if buy invisible shield.. no need to buy moshi palm guard d..
but i m worry on the installation part.. sked the solution goes into the MBP.. icon_question.gif

another thing i m searching is Magic Mouse. i think no one selling cheaper in garage sales d.. hv to buy from apple reseller for RM229.. hmm.gif

Oh mememe12 also from Penang, haha penang lang.... =D Mine and your macbook should be the same place now I guess... At subang there... Mine still at sorting.. Maybe sort already then can straight away masuk DHL van! Haha... Hope that is the case la
*
masuk van one ar? not masuk another airplane and fly to PG airport? sad.gif if travel by plane.. i might consider go to airport and pick up from them tongue.gif

QUOTE(jonrwg @ Apr 20 2010, 10:30 AM)
i called them just nw and they say clearance will take 1 full day.. so long? LOL..

huh? I called just now and they said clearance done? i tot we are same batch too? blur rclxub.gif

QUOTE(tarvalslain87 @ Apr 20 2010, 10:43 AM)
Mine already pass clearance and reach sorting facility... Hope no more clearance to pass @@.... Later Ill go call DHL and see what they say about mine...

Yeap MBP definitely will sell like hotcakes... In Penang, I tried calling Switch and they say they only have like 4 units for the MBP 15" and no stock on the 13" yet and have to wait 2 weeks.. Online order would definitely be faster than that =D.. Its normal that demand > supply for new introduced producst
*
u called DHL d right? they said clearance completed right? btw.. why u wanna go DHL office? u working near there? if not i think call them easier right?
