Buying an iPad in China


Recommended Posts

Posted

Anyone in China get one yet? If so, how much did you pay?

I'm having one shipped from the US, it seems they aren't for sale here yet.

If you plan to buy from USA posted to China, be aware that you will be charged a hefty amount in custom duties.

Anyone get one in Beijing? A lot of sellers on taobao, but I don't mind paying a little extra to get it from the Apple store. The store in Sanlitun is real, right? Their website says the price starts at 3688 RMB. I'm looking for the basic wifi 16g one.

Those are just Apple stores, I think, there's a list of resellers for Harbin here.

The store in Sanlitun is real, right?

The one with the Apple logo replaced with a starfruit? No, that's fake.

Anyone have any luck on Taobao? If so, who would you recommend?

I would like to recommend Amazon.cn, which is authorized by Apple as well. The basic version of ipad 2 (16g wifi) costs ¥3599,so it would save you ¥89 if you buy one from there.

PS: Free shipping

Assuming their website is up to date, there are two locations in Beijing with a pretty picture of the one in Sanlitun. I wonder if any of the employees at the fake stores actually thought they were working for apple.

I bought my iPad 2 at the Apple store in Xidan as the one in Sanlitun is further away from where I live. The price is about 800元 below the swedish prices so I'm quite happy!

If you have any friends heading to Hong Kong you could always look at getting one picked up there.

I get most of my bits from Hong Kong.
