Hi everyone. I want to get the MacBook Pro Retina with 16 GB of ram and 512 flash memory and am requesting from you info on US stores that do international shipping. I'll much appreciate your feedback.

Thank you,

Re: Macbook Pro Retina

you don't need to tell everyone you want to buy Apple hardware, all what you need to do next time is:

1. think

2. google

regards.

And even I walk through the darkest valley of the shadow of death I will be not afraid because I am the worst motherfucker in this place.

Re: Macbook Pro Retina

Out of curiosity, does South Korea have some sort of shipping deal with the U.S.? It's not the first time you ask these types of questions.

Hi Mircwar, I think the FTA might have changed many things, yet I don't
know the intricacies of the agreement. As far as I know, being a
foreigner here implies you pay 10% on the total value of the items you
buy from overseas.

Thank you for the recommendation kskz, yet buying a Mac from here would set me off a few hundred dollars more and I don't want a keyboard with Hangeul characters.

@delight, I'm not an Apple fanboy, this is for my brother. I have to give it to the Retina's perormance though, yet the price is too high. Also, the display's colors look washed out to me, compared to my Sony F3D, so given that great resolution, justice should be made in this department.

My brother is a very skilled computer programmer and already created many commercial applications that reaped hundreds of thousands of dollars, but he doesn't own them. In the future he will head down this path as well and for that he needs a new machine first, as now he's using a very old dual core Macbook mini. Hope this helps understanding things better.

Re: Macbook Pro Retina

Apple computers are way better than pc in some ways, specially in APPS - for web design, apple have more variety of programs to do web design/coding/css etc than normal windows users have, I've iMac and PC and for the PC well I use it only for gaming now, which used to be my Main computer for work, when I bought the Mac I do all the work here and just use the PC for gaming.

Just sending this message to tell my point of view of why sometimes you need to pay extra money that regular pc for the work you need to do.

// I put a photo of my 2 computers hehe ; D

kskz I think you didn't read what I just wrote. Pay more attention next time. Let me paste:

"Thank you for the recommendation kskz, yet buying a Mac from here would
set me off a few hundred dollars more and I don't want a keyboard with
Hangeul characters."

As for Romania, it's around $1000 more expensive compared to the US and $500 compared to Korea. Sometimes I probably am vainglorious, but stupid and lazy... hehe Happy

That's bullshits! You just waste the power of your hardware man. This is an old rumour based on commercial presets.

We got it delight that you're an Apple basher. My brother and Damian know their shit which you can't understand unless you've worked as a programmer/web designer/graphics designer and so on. Let's not push it more than it's meant to be pushed.

Dear FuckinDIEse I though you are talking about shipping costs, anyway I am enduring person and maybe alphabet and typing skills will come to you as well. Try Amazon or eBay where are shops also. As you shows you are just stupid and lazy. Regards.
