The more you tell me about the resellers the more I like them and the more determined I am to buy only from them in the future. The reality is that the resellers sell to the market, if an item is low on stock, sure, they will increase the price but on the flip side if an item is not so 'in demand' they will give a discount, despite the price-fixing Apple try to impose on their resellers. I've purchased Apple products for work and for my daughter and have never paid full 'Apple' prices. They will also repair Apple products, change batteries, tell you where you can get aftermarket cables and memory round the corner without paying ridiculous Apple prices and other fine, upstanding services that Apple are unwilling to provide. Frankly, it brings a tear to my eye just thinking about the sterling work that they do.
Thanks to your inspiring words I promise I will definitely make every attempt to continue to purchase from the honourable and free-spirited traders of Hong Kong rather than purchasing directly.
