How to buy from the Apple store?

Question

Apple

Does Apple ship to Russia?
I want to buy a guitar , but the form in the basket is clearly not tailored for international delivery.
Has anyone placed an order? Are there alternatives?

Answer 1

There is no delivery to Russia in the Apple Store. You can try through services like shipito.com

Answer 2

You can’t buy directly from Russia, as already mentioned.
Apple does not send to the addresses of forwarding companies, such as Shipito. What is needed is intermediaries who buy on their own behalf, for their own money. Perhaps offices like ebaytoday, ebayworld will help - I have not used it, I'm not sure. You can find a human intermediary.
Delivery of course is not $1000, but 150-200 dollars can easily cost.
In general, plan expenses in the region of $500, and wait a month and a half.

Answer 3

You can order through Shipito, but there are a few nuances:
- Apple store does not deliver to most Shipito addresses (in particular, to tax-free Tualatin), they only ship to an address in Torrance (the Torrance II warehouse was personally checked the other day);
- when ordering, the billing address and the delivery address are better to be the same;
- You need a real American phone. link to help;
- do not forget about the "business address" checkbox;
- it’s not worth paying extra to Apple for urgent delivery now - they send it almost immediately, despite what they write about five days.

Answer 4

Just shipping the guitar will cost approx. thousand dollars
