lokgotz, i think youve made a bit of a mistake by mentioning your discount situation.. doh.gif

cause now, everyone's gonna be asking if youd be able to make a bulk purchase...including me. tongue.gif

think youd be able to get a bulk purchase for the cheaper price....?

anyway, i am expecting my black macbook to arrive today or tomorrow from singapore, since the black macbook arrived in Singapore last friday. yahoo... bought it approximately RM6000 including courier here, pretty good deal as i got upgraded to 1gb ram too and few other goodies.

lokgotz - wanna bulk for accp for macbook?

p/s i prefer to deal with Apple shop in Singapore since they always give free things and upgrade without being ask. my two cents lar... here have to hint hint a bit.

since i have made an agreement with my fren in singapore, he told me to deposit RM6000 for everything including cost of courier. so to me if he makes his money go ahead, no worries coz at the end of it, he takes any currency fluctation risk. if not mistaken currently the rates to singapore is like 2.30 now when i order with him then, it was like 2.23 or 2.22 or something like that.

so macbook is around SG$2,588 (includes free upgrade to 1gb)
courier got no idea, he will kowtim including the insurance.

hope this help...

bulk ACPP from me or from singapore??

To everyone....i've asked my source and they said i can buy more than one item at discounted prices....with the condition of paying the items by cash/cheque...no credits......

but the thing is, we are dealing with thousands of ringgit here...if i were to release the prices that i am getting for EVERY APPLE PRODUCT (yeah, including ipods, iMacs, MBP, MB, Mini, ACD, even the xServe lines)....i believe it'll go up to at least a RM50K bulk shocking.gif sweat.gif (Eg. i can get the 23" ACD for less than RM5k...it's retailing at RM5499...so u do the math...hehe).....i am not a safe trader and to be frank....i dont really wanna take the risk....

Risk as in if i lose the money that you guys pay me, AND also the FFK ppl.....

i have agreed to help a forummer(famous for all his devices..hehe...*hint* hint whistling.gif ) buy 1 unit of the MacBook Black at discounted price....he approached me 1st.....so he lucky lah...hehehe..... thumbup.gif i have yet to call him yet, if he is not interested in it anymore(which i doubt so), i'll post it up here...

hope u guys understand my situation......really sorry i cant do bulk, although i am aloowed to...... thumbup.gif
