if you buy from the US online store, they will not ship the box to you.
if you have buddies in Singapore, ask them to help you la smile.gif

I dont really need the box. I think they know that but how do you get someone over there to open it up and pass you the serial number. I do not have anyone I know there anymore. The guy at the bookstore I used to work at the uni may have already retired.

BTW, Singapore selling SGD303 which is about RM690. sweat.gif

Guys...I copied this ACPP T&C from apple.com website. Any comments on item 7 (d)??

I managed to get me the ACPP for my iMac when I was in Jakarta last week. Cheaper a bit from here...got it for about IDR1.4 million or roughly about RM530.

I have not registered the ACPP. My 1st year warranty is expiring Mid Dec 2007 so I got time.

Just a few questions though. Can someone confirm with me that if I register in say Sept. 8, 2007, the extended warranty will cover up to Mid Dec 2009 not Sept 7, 2009?

Also, I did a trade to get this iMac with another person who took my Macbook. I'm not sure if the actual date of purchase is the same as the date stated in Apple support page. Is it important to ensure that the two dates are correct? If so, how do I check the actual purchase date then?

Thanks a bunch cool.gif

it will extend to the date you found on the Apple database. Let's say, apple.com show your warranty expired on 15 Dec 2007, it doesn't matter when u register ACPP, as long as it is before that day. U get extended to 15 Dec 2009. Like i said before, some Mac owner purhcase ACPP togehter with their mac wink.gif

Thanks wei.

Does it really matter if I dont double check the actual date of purchase and just rely on the date I found on the apple support page?

Normally they are pretty close. But there're some cases that the date are so wrong that make you worried. If that's the case, just fax the original receipt clearly stated the correct date of purchase to apple. They'll make the proper adjustment to the database.

In that case I need to contact the original purchaser lah. I hope he still keeps the receipt.

Thanks wei. smile.gif
