Sup guys,

i've got a question on the ressellers whereabouts in Kuala Lumpur.

Im looking to get maybe 3 - 4 MacBook Air
and
3-4 of MacPros (pretty high end specs)

If i can get a couple of resellers numbers so i can get the quotes from would be awesome.

I hope u guys can help me here.

thanks for your time.

@zarnall,
Are u looking for a retailer or service provider? Apple prices are quite fixed; u probably can get it a little cheaper at the retail outlets but i don't think they'll come to ur office and get it setup and do frequent maintenance. You gotta check with them.

Alternatively, U can always get the information off Apple's website - it's all there

thanks tinker,

of course ive been to applestore.com first before asking you guys :-), its jsut maybe i could get a deal on the prices if i ask a couple of diff resellers.

thanks though, if u say the price is kinda fixed then its no use for me to try to get other contact numbers and jsut go to the main office in damansara i suppose.

thanks again.

ps : the malaysian version of the apple website LOADS slower than the US version, its kinda pathetic imo. /shrug

@zarnall,
Apple 'HQ' @ Damansara Heights don't sell machines to end users like us - they'll refer u back to an authorised reseller; and there are 2 separate ones; retailers like Machines & Mac City as well as Service Providers.

Generally, the retailers are able to offer more bundles as compared to the Service Providers - that, at least is my opinion

Got it :-)

after hanging on the phone with a sultry sexy voice of a maiden on the Apple Malaysia hotline i got a couple of resellers located around KL.

Ps: Oh man was she hot on the phone lawl /tonedown

anyway if you were wondering here are the comp names and phone numbers i got:

Call Machines (Mid valley) - 2282 3996

Max Studio (Low Yat) - 2145 5799

Max City(AmCorp mall) - 7958 3975

maybe too much info but i hope these could maybe help others in the future.

ps: 1.8 Ghz Intel Duo Core 2 Duo aint here yet...only after Chinese new Year (btw Gong Xi Fa Cai to everyone who celebrates)

@zarnall,
Yups.. those are retailers all right, and it's Mac Studio and Mac City - too mesmerised with her voice huh?

Get it from Machines cause they've got this membership card thing; i don't know exactly how it works but it gives u rebates on ur next purchases or something *shrugs* - and since ur gonna be getting so many units, care to give me 1 of that membership card?

please please please?!!! *tries to put on that sultry sexy voice* ! LOL

other alternataive is u can check with morgan the mac seller forumer here in lyn... quite cheap compare to shops laa...

wow... u need so many cool stuff ??

Forget 1.8Ghz C2D, even the MacBook Air's taking its own sweet time getting here

the 1.8GHz Core2 Duo MacBook Air? no sound from the back end...
I hope we can get it *before* Chinese New Year!

Hey xaw, is Mac City accepting pre-orders for the MBA as of now? RM6299, I presume? Either way, don't you guys have any idea when exactly it's arriving on our shores? Or is that info under an NDA too? (funny, MBA and NDA rhyme )

Sup guys,

nice to see everyone is replying to my post.

Anyway the company where im working gave me this shopping list and check with the Mac Vendors/resellers in KL.

Abit overkill rite?
lol anyway if u guys can provide me with a quote on how much it will cost that would be awesome
ps: pm me if u want my email :-)

ps: Im a sucker for the sultry voices on the phone. Dude! She was HAWT!

um... there's no such thing as a 33" monitor. your IT people on some interesting substances?

Haha, i bet, i need to get wat they are having too i suppose lol.

Thing is they are the designers team, rather than the IT support team. I guess the specs must have been specified by them jsut on a whim rather than really looking on to the Apple Store site lol... anywya thank for pointing that out for me.

Im glad that you forum dudes are so kind and helpful to a noobie like meh!

i wouldn't mind a 33" ... but it not the exist...

oh well... zarnall, do pass me your email in PM. I'm pretty sure I can do a quote for you.

try buy in S'pore , sure can get cheap .

then after 1 year , buy Apple Care for each of your peripheral

kevler
takkan nak transport sini pakai lori? 3-4 Mac Pro!

huhu

i'm not sure whether we able not to declare all of this hardware .


just my 2 bytes

@zarnall,
Sure sounds like a brand new creative shop coming up - not many invest in such heavy equipments and when change does need to come, not all computers are changed at the same time

Anyhow, if u do get it from Machines, can I please please please have that Machines membership card? *grins*

You haven't mentioned about getting softwares; i assume u would need Adobe CS3 + that Font software; forgot the name, Extensis or something ?
