Hey, how are you?

I'm looking to buy iPad.

However, my few friends suggested to buy either apple store, machine & switch.
Because each store has their own style.

Is that true?

If you don't mind to share any experience buying apple product/iPad.

is there any different between apple online store, switch and machine ?

i see..in terms of warranty ?

this is based on my friends experience visit the stores.

example : how their staff treat customer, shop concept / design and etc.
