New Ipad Pro 2017
With Apple charging silly prices for the new Ipad Pro here in the UK, I will probably wait until Sept and make my purchase over in Orlando (no need to advise me on paying ex duty ... )
I would probably go to the Apple store as I have previously (Iphone & Watch), but was wondering if anyone else would sell it cheaper. Please share if you have and ideas where I could purchase & collect in the Universal resort area. Cheers

Cheers Rawhide, I will check them out. There is a Best Buy up by Mall In Millenia. I can send the Missus to the shops while I go explore.

its also worth checking the likes of amazon and macmall for ordering online for delivery... the mbp i ordered was considerably cheaper than buying at the apple store (was basically tax free compared to buying instore - with the exchange rate at the time, i saved over £500 on the uk price)

Depending on what model you're going for, it might be worth checking the price in Dixons Travel (or whatever they call it these days) at the airport? Just thinking with the exchange rate, and tax being added, the US savings might not be much.

Never really found Dixons at the airport very competitive (for cameras, apple products) when looking in the past, but will certainly have a look

Even with the basic model (wifi 64GB) and the current exchange rate its around £530 (including tax) at the Apple Store (UK current price £619 ) , so nearly £100 saving.
Not sure how warranty works if you don't buy it from the apple store , with apple store receipt they'll happily look at it anywhere else in the world. (previously bought ipad and iwatch from us and taken to uk stores and had problems issues sorted out without any issues)

Yeah it is definitely a worthwhile saving. I have bought the Apple watch2 and Iphones before during our trips and there is no problem with the warranty. Apple do a worldwide warranty, so it would just be a case of taking any defective equipment back to my local store. I did have a small issue with the watch last year and the Manchester store had no problems at all assisting me.
