they dont have any promo at the moment,i think the december promo really made them lose a lot of profit, now they might be thinking of not being reckless with promos.

What I heard is the Dec promotion from MacCity is backed up by Apple which means the free gifts are given by Apple. I am not sure how true that is..

I bought a macbook from Mac City in Dec 2008 when they having the free upgrade to 4 GB RAM promotion. The guy said come back 1st week Jan to upgrade the RAM.

Until now the shop say no RAM coming!! I'm so upset!!  I call them every week and it's the same answer - they don't know when it's coming, supplier fault, etc...

Is this a scam? cry.gif

What can I do to get my 4 GB RAM as per the promotion? Any avenues?

I got mine from MacCity too.. but had to wait for 1 day for the RAM to come. Then I got it upgraded on the next day. But then I had to wait about a week for the bagpack..
but I have yet to receive the keyboard protector till now.. sad.gif

i think we have to know what we are buying before proceeding with the purchase,cmon all advertising are meant to give you half truth and half exaggeration. If you know apple products you should know that all their machines except for the entry level come with matched memory configuration. So the macbook come with 1x1GB,and machines said 2GB additional Ram right? that means they gave you a single piece of 2Gb replacing 1Gb inside the macbook,unless the machine miraculously had 3 slots that you can put the extra piece of 1GB in but thats not the case,next time ask the sales person properly,just relying on advertisement will not end up sop good. Even every time i see kfc ads the chicken and the burger look so good and huge but thats not the case in KFC outlets i cant say KFC is deceitful can i?
