QUOTE(jasperng @ Aug 4 2009, 12:11 AM) of cuz you caan buy mac book from us .. just that you ahve to bear the cost of international postage and probably being taxed by malaysia custom . apple has malaysia apple store.. why dont you buy from there ? refurbish macbook might be product with detects previously and has been fixed right now. it might be a return product previously too. But, apple would make sure it is functioning well before selling it again . However its your own risk to get a reburbished macbook as there might be unseen problem too =) . tats why it is cheaper. cuz i count the price of hongkong price is cheaper than malaysia, so that im thinking of buying from there...but i totally forget the tax... can you tell me how much is the tax will charge if im buying from hongkong and US? |

In US , different states impose different tax , some states might impose lesser tax than the other. I dunno about HK.

Hey guys, just out of curiosity, did all of you purchase the apple protection plan when u purchased your Mac? Am wondering whether I should purchase it now, or next time after the 1 year warranty lapses.

Malaysia store for education price doesn't seem to need any verification.
US/Canada etc will make you select your province/state and then followed by your school.
Btw, we can't buy from other countries Apple store because they don't allow billing from a non US (if it's apple US store) credit card.
I've tried this before, and they had a disclaimer there that said it.
Anyways now Malaysia has an Apple Online store so that's just fantastic!

But if you buy protection within one year (364 days after purchasing your mac) you get another 3years, the protection will be 4years in total.  Oops pizza is right, No matter when you buy protection, as long as within 1 year You'll get total protection of 3years from date of purchase.

i know. ok, lets say the 2 scenarios below:
buying macbook pro 13". default = 1 year warranty
buy applecare same time = 1 + 2 years warranty
buy applecare after 360 days (less than 1 year) = 360 + 3 years warranty.
is this correct? how do they calculate the applecare if i buy it after the product purchase?

ok, so buying with the laptop or buying after that (less than 1 year) has no difference. this makes more sense actually.  the other post was saying the other way. |

@John89,
What do U wish to clarify? ACPP extends the warranty an additional 2 years. If U buy ACPP at the same time U purchase ur Mac, U have up to 3 years warranty. U can also choose to purchase the ACPP within the 1st year of ur Mac purchase.
