[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1001483, member: 46727"] I agree with Thomas. Stay away from airport duty free shops if at all possible. Those shops are tourist oriented and prices are usually higher than outside. If you plan on traveling to the US and come through a large major airport, say Kennedy International in NY, it's only about a 30 minute ride to the nearest Apple store. And since you have a passport from the UK, you will NOT have to pay NY city or state sales tax. (which by the way, is around 10%) Do as Thomas suggested: Buy a notebook computer bag, place your new Mac in the bag, hang it over your shoulder and take it on home that way. You might have to do a bit of explaining to the customs folks in the UK, but as long as it's not in the original packing you should be OK. Regards. [/QUOTE]
