Nice. Here the cheapest M3 Pro equipped Macbook Pro is at 2348,50 euro's. Without tax 1854,92. Or 2025,11 USD excluding taxes.
The base M3 version can be had for 1849 euro's tho.
I am jealous of the US pricing ngl. Even with tax it'd be cheaper.
I’ve bought my wife a surprise flight to visit her friend in the USA, the savings on my new MacBook she will bring home pays for the flights
Would it not be possible to just buy it on a VPN and ship it over there?
When it arrives, the customs office is keeping it, till you pay the tax for it. So basically it would be the same if you buy it inside the country.
I know for replica watches and clothes it won't happen or happens rarely if you declare that the package is worth less than 21 euro, I guess there's some shady business out there which maybe resells apple products this way maybe?
You dont need a vpn do buy something in another country dude.
well, the base m3 costs R$ 16649 or roughly 3400 USD, cheapest m3 pro is 4250 USD in Brazil
we’re all thankful that our government places 92% import fees/taxes on these items
You gotta somehow protect the mom and pop local laptop factories that grow them in the jungle, though
