Anyone ever priced an Ipad in St. Thomas?

Has anyone ever priced or purchased an Ipad in St. Thomas? If so, was the price comparable to those back home?

 

Thanks in advance for your replies? I am trying to determine if it is worth waiting for our trip or just buying stateside.

A new Apple store just opened with prices same as stateside (so they say). I saw it when I was there on my cruise earlier this month. You'll save sales tax.

That's like $32 on the low end iPad2 and maybe $65 for the high end. But you do get the US Warranty.

Hum...interesting!

 

Is is located in Havensight or downtown?

It is an authorized dealer, Techbox. It is across the street from Havensight, in the old Modern Music space.

I have purchased IPods in St. Thomas before, at one of the many electronic shops. The price was about 10% less than from Apple at home plus I saved the sales tax, and since St. Thomas is part of the US you have full warranty coverage.

 

Bottom line you won't save a lot by buying in St. Thomas but you will save something.
