Flopthis25 Posted January 22, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I am wondering if anyone has ever seen iPads for sale in St. Martin or St. Thomas. I'm not a jewelry person...but I would LOVE to buy an iPad2 on vacation duty free. Question is 1-Has anyone seen them for sale and 2-Would you buy one in St. Thomas/St. Martin?

C Cruise Dude Posted January 22, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I am wondering if anyone has ever seen iPads for sale in St. Martin or St. Thomas. I'm not a jewelry person...but I would LOVE to buy an iPad2 on vacation duty free. Question is 1-Has anyone seen them for sale and 2-Would you buy one in St. Thomas/St. Martin? More likely than not, it will be available in St. Thomas, they have just about every thing else. I purchased my digital camera in St. Thomas many years ago and the sweet of it was that Carnival guaranteed it. I would be surprised if RCI does not have a similar policy. I'm interested in an Ipad but frankly I would rather deal directly with Apple. I was looking at laptops the last time that I was in St. Thomas but I didn't see a price that wowed me. Good luck.

Cigar King Posted January 22, 2012 #3 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I wouldn't expect the prices to be significantly different in St. Thomas, although the saving on sales tax would be a nice perk. I'd shop Amazon and Apple so you have ready prices to compare when you get there. Good luck, we'll be there next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcutrone Posted January 23, 2012 #4 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The prices on the iPads in St. Maarten were outrageous. Much better to buy directly from Apple, even with paying sales tax. Little known fact, you can buy refurbished products directly from Apple for much, much less than retail. They come with the full one year warranty directly from Apple. Google refurbished iPad for the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinfever Posted January 23, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Come to New Hampshire - you can buy an Ipad at Best Buy or Walmart and there is no sales tax. I have an IPAD 2 which I absolutely love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
