Educators2 Posted June 19, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2018 For anyone on Summit now or just off, does the Apple store sell IPads? We have a lot of on board credit and would prefer to buy another iPad than just spend on stuff we don’t need. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRWLOBO Posted June 19, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 19, 2018 We were on Summit in March with the same issue you have, too much on-board credit. We went to the Apple store and were a bit disappointed in the selection of IPads available. Had a couple of the Pros, in a pinkish color only. They are very limited in how much they will or can carry. We ended up spending our dollars elsewhere. Good luck to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Educators2 Posted June 19, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Thanks. We will take a look and see what they have. I know that they don’t have much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted June 19, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 19, 2018 You never know when they re-stock. Sometimes you walk into the on-board shop and there's nothing there, other times there's a large selection of Apple products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Click Posted June 19, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 19, 2018 In the same boat as Educator2, just hoping for the best. If the best does not happen it is hello warehouse store when we get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaKnowWhen Posted June 19, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 19, 2018 For anyone on Summit now or just off, does the Apple store sell IPads? We have a lot of on board credit and would prefer to buy another iPad than just spend on stuff we don’t need. Thanks. Currently onboard. Asked this question two days ago. Late 2017 10.5 inch (?) or is it 10.3?, 64gb and 256gb iPad Pro in stock. The size is just a smidge larger than my iPad Air2 but with a larger screen, less bezel. These of course are WiFi only, they can’t sell cellular-capable systems with no way to link them to a cell service vendor. As I recall the 256 version was $799. Which should be the same as a shoreside Apple store. I haven’t decided yet if I will reduce their inventory by one unit... Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted June 19, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Yes the price would be the same, but there would be no state sales tax, so there is quite a bit of cost saving there. Also, generally if you buy your new iPad early in the cruise and don't have an internet plan already as one of your perks, they give you quite a bit of internet and will help you with set up, migrating your email and photos, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a 125g iPad mini and asked about ‘free internet’ to enable me to set it up, but I was told NO. Excellent deal though, as the exchange rate was good, which saved me a lot and no VAT (20%) to pay. I just had to make sure I was below £390, which is the Customs allowance for bringing goods into UK. Above that and you pay full VAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
