[QUOTE="chscag, post: 874028, member: 46727"] Can't speak for Canada or elsewhere, but here in the Dallas - Fort Worth area of Texas, the folks at the local Apple stores do require proof for a "non profit usage" purchase, but no proof for education pricing. They only want to know which school or school district you're in. With the vastness of this area and with regard to the number of schools in any given district, it would be virtually impossible for them to check out each sale. Makes me wonder but I guess since even high school and middle school students qualify (and they will not normally have a student number or other identity) that the policy of showing proof of student status has become rather lenient. Let's also remember that it's usually Mom or Dad who is making the purchase for the student. :) Regards. [/QUOTE]
