Build to order

Im planning on buying a new Macbook or Macbook Pro but i want to be able to customize the specs, for example i want to put 4g RAM as the memory if i choose the Macbook or select a faster processor if i go for Macbook Pro like you can on the Apple Store website. Will i be able to do this when buying at iStyle?

When ordering online, how can i do this, does Online Apple Store ship to the UAE? last time i checked they didnt.

don't think it's possible through iStyle's website.
Ordering Online from Apple is an easy task if you have an address in the US. That's how I ordered my MBP. And no, they don't deliver to UAE. Some people said you open an account with Aramex and get it delivered to your 'virtual' address in the US, where they can deliver it to your address here. But keep in mind that this process might take up to a month. So if you're in a hurry just go to iStyle Festival City and purchase whatever you want from there!

Yes they can put in more RAM but you'll pay a lot for it, just like you would getting it from Apple.

Aramex took exactly 11 days to get my iMac to me. That includes Apple ship time.

Magnus is 100% right, ordering any Apple (or any PC) with added RAM is an invitation to be ripped off. RAM is cheap on ebay, or around town. Get the base RAM config. and upgrade it yourself.

Thank you, tried my best, not exactly used to it so it's a bit nerve wrecking

Let me know if I can help. I have an address in US. My buddy resides in my house right now while I am re-grouping over here. I am sure we can arrange something. Maybe I throw in some items in there too so we split the shipping from US to UAE.

guys is there any other expense if item is shipped from US to UAE by courier, like tax etc ?
