Where is my MacBook?
This is extremely frustrating. Orignally I was told by Amazon they would ship my MacBook on the 15th of June. I was then told my MacBook would instead ship earlier on the 9th of June and as compensation (don’t ask its amazon) they upgraded my shipping to next day. Now I am being told my MacBook is going to ship on June 20th and as compensation I was given a $30 gift voucher. Amazon is being very nice with me but fuck I want my MacBook!

Try to forget about it. There’s a lot of demand on them and Apple is probably having a hard time resupplying Amazon fast enough. There’s not much you can do but wait.
they are having some shipping issus .. they delayed some items i bought
its the world cup man, less and less drivers are willing to work this month
Well they new that you don’t deserve a mac . that’s why they are delaying your shipment :-p .. (Mr. I Know everything about macs :-p)
hehehe its getting to you! “YOU WANT YOUR PRECIOUS!!!!” hehehehehehehehe
i travel to Bangkok every month (where I have a business)… next time you want something, drop me a line… may be able to get it cheaper/quicker
It is not that he should or shouldn’t forget about it.. he paid they told him they will deliver, they should deliver..
The bigger question is… Is Mac City getting it here? What’s their mark-up (i.e. rip-off)?
Damn, the prices in bangkok are crazy when it comes to computers, cheapest in everything.
tim do you have a computer shop in kuwait that is being stocked with the stuff you buy from thailand?
zaydoun here is a post comparing the price of the macbook PRO between all the mac dealers in Kuwait. it should help u give an idea of the markup between all the dealers

i know zmacshop got a black MacBook but dont know how much they priced it, will check.
No Ruggz… my business in Bangkok is only importing and distributing whey protein for gym-goers, and other associated crap. And in Kuwait, I’m working on computerised maintenance for an oil company in Wafra. Not very connected I know, and nothing for sale in Kuwait – was just an offer in case I can get something there for someone. :) No markup!
hey tim under what brand name do you market whey protein in kuwait…?
I don’t market whey protein in Kuwait… I do computer stuff at an oil company.
In Thailand, I market products from http://www.naturesbesteurope.com and http://www.bodyripped.com.au (although the australian brand is re-designing their website right now). The best range I’ve seen in Kuwait is the EAS range in a new nutrition shop on the first floor of Souq Sharq.
wow – just looked at the Macbook (now available in Bangkok, 13″ 2GHz 61,900THB)…. it’s HEAVY! 2.36kg?
what a pain… gonna have to stick with my Acer Travelmate :( 1.5kg
