Q&A: What’s the difference between an Apple Store and a Mac Store?

Question by LuvLife: What’s the difference between an Apple Store and a Mac Store?
I live in portland and we have “Apple Stores” everywhere and then there is a store called “The Mac Store”. What’s the difference? The Mac Store doesn’t carry the same deals like the iPod rebate for college kids and stuff like that… What’s the deal?

Answer by MilesPrower
Apple store is a chain owned by the Apple company, whereas that Mac Store must just be an independent chain/location which happens to specialize in selling Mac/Apple products but is not officially endorsed by Apple.

Apple Stores: The Truth Behind The Apple Logic Board Issue

Apple Stores: The Truth Behind The Apple Logic Board Issue

Who pays for the lavish locations the apple store provides? The consumer, that is who! We have started a campaign to shed some light on why apple computer repairs are so expensive!

We are a family run apple service center. We were attacked by apple, because of the current issues with their computers. The logic boards have an inherent defect. We saw many school kids, upset because their laptop was malfunctioning. Apple accused us of lying and said there was a software not a hardware issue.

Since we were correct, we went out and spent 0,000.00 on the proper equipment to do logic board repairs. Like clockwork we get sent apple computers to fix that the apple stores has said needed a refurbished g5 apple logic board!

We fix these for 250 dollars FLAT RATE and include insurance on the return shipping. Last I checked it was at least 0.00 JUST FOR THE REFURBISHED APPLE MOTHER BOARD! How can we provide this price point and superior service and turn around?

Honestly, because we care about your computer and your budget. Apple, well just like any large corporation, only cares about the stock holders bottom line. That is profits. We do not have stock holders to please!

I know you are not happy with the price quoted by the apple stores to you! I would not be either. There is no worries though because I am here to help alleviate the stress of handing apple about 00.00 to get that perfectly fine computer you have fixed.

We don’t want the apple stores to pressure you into buying a new computer. We want you to save hundreds on the apple store price! When you add to that, the fact we are usually 3 times as fast as the apple stores turn around. Well the bargain is very clear to see. That is, for those who are looking for one!

I hope I have helped you make a proper choice here. Our tech has over 20 years of experience working with apple computers and doing repairs on apple products. He was certified in the late 1980′s! You really need to put that experience to work for you.

Leverage that experience to save TIME and Money! We really understand that you have a budget and we average a 99% fix it rate. It is actually more than 99% but we don’t like to exaggerate! If we cannot fix it within the 250.00 flat rate, We will ship it back at no cost.

That has yet to happen… If given some time, we can find a used board and actually replace the faulty g5 imac logic board in the machine! What we currently offer for 250.00 is an actual refurbishment of the board in your machine. A service the apple stores cannot provide for you.

We look forward to helping save you money soon! I hope this has been educational for you! Click the links below for our website.

Question about Apple Store “Genius Bar”?

Question by Pablo @: Question about Apple Store “Genius Bar”?
Anybody know if there is a charge for getting a consultation at the “Genius Bar”? I wanna make an appoitment to see if my Video ipod can be saved from its sad face state(it has a dent in the back due to a “car accident”). I don’t want to have to spend another $ 300 dollars on another ipod so i’m hoping this works out. And if there is a charge, anybody know how much it would be? I’m sure the charge would be dependent on the labor needed to fix the product, so is there anyone out there who has had their ipod fixed at the Apple Store? Any help would be appreciated.

Best answer:

Answer by Emily W
no there is no charge at the genius bar – you just go in and ask what you need to or have them check out your ipod and they give you an idea of what’s going on with it. if it needs to be repaired they will tell you how much etc … i think they may even ship it for you!!

default CRAZY DANCING CHICK!!!!!!!! (in the apple store)

www.uberpulse.com I knew that Steve Jobs was coming to Palo Alto when I saw a PR friend of mine (Hi, Kirstin!) who’s usually there when he is! How lucky though as he could have gone to Valley Fair in Cupertino (where Woz was waiting in line overnight!) or San Francisco. But I guessed that leaving a few blocks from downtown Palo Alto, Jobs would pop inside and feel this crazy atmosphere for himself icon wink CRAZY DANCING CHICK!!!!!!!!
