Buying MBP from overseas

[bythesea]

Is it worthwhile getting MacBook Pro or MacBook Air from overseas, for example in Bangkok or Malaysia?

Will I still be able to seek assistance from Apple Singapore if I encounter any issues?

Guess that the warranty is international?

Any other advice is appreciated. Thanks.

Malaysia and HK are good places to look at.

The only benefit of getting it overseas is if it costs much cheaper.

For example  products u buy from the Singapore  online store may cost more than the Japan  online store,

Warranty and phone support is international.

Only issue is if you have a HW issue within first 2 weeks and you left the country u bought it from, you may not be able to get a replacement. Replacement is only with the reseller you bought the mac from.

take bus, chop passport, walk to City Sq JB have a look. Thats the nearest Msia mall at your fingertips. only thing is upon return, throw the box away in case of tax.

Google on different ways to get to City Sq.
