  Does anyone know if these qualify for the 50% tax break for educational purposes?

    Item is shipped from Hong Kong by Fedex or DHL

    Don't think you're going to get a Tax Invoice (they're grey imports) therefore they won't qualify. Can someone else confirm?

    It has International Warranty, any issues just take it to a Apple store.

      Oh, so this is not a proper Apple plug but a foreign one with an Aus adapter?

      Is the power supply itself the genuine, original Apple one?

      Need an urgent response please.

      If its not the genuine part you're better off buying locally I think.

        I understand that the units are delivered from Hong Kong, China, with:-

        1) The genuine Apple AC Charger.

        2) The genuine Apple 'duck tail' plug that fits the Hong Kong (and UK) wall sockets.

        3) A "Travel adapter". This is an adapter plug, with the Australian angled flat pins on one 'end' and holes (sockets) on the other for the pins of the Hong Kong plug.

        It is item 3) above that is illegal, and unsafe for use, in Australia. It lacks the Electrical Safety approval for Australia, and can not obtain this approval because it has no insulation on the flat pins.

        ShoppingSquare would be better serving their customers if they paid the few cents more for an approved AU style 'duck tail' plug, with the insulation, to be included with these items.

        I know that copies of the genuine AU 'duck tail' plug (with the required insulation), that fit the genuine Apple AC charger, are available in China/Hong Kong. They cost under a dollar. They lack the C-Tick/A-Tick but at least they are safe to use.

  499.95 delivered for the 16GB wifi compared to $554 from bigW.

  Roughly 10%, which is, not suprisingly, roughly the GST component that you are saving. Nice deal imo.

  Both 64GB versions have the biggest savings.

  For those who want the units which have sold out, you can buy through an ebay seller which have very similar prices at:

  This is just the perfect deal for anyone looking to give that special someone** ***, a Birthday present.

  ** - Based on SS's average order->delivery times, that special someone should ideally be born after 02-01-12. :)
  *** - Please allow up to 3 extra weeks for deliveries outside a major metro area.

  A little too late to buy iPad2 now. Probably by January/February 2012, Apple releases iPad3.

    ThePump on 03/12/2011 - 09:01 ¶

    iPad 3 will be released in March like all over iPad releases.
