Where to order Apple products in the DR

Many places will put packages on the bus for you. You pick it up when the bus arrives.

Try Amazon and check Jumbo or La Sirena.

I am in Santo Domingo, you can order and I will make sure it gets to you.   I will send on the Bus to you directly! no problem.  We have an apple store here at Agora Mall

@planner I found their website! I think it would be cheaper for me to fly to Miami to buy any Apple products

Hi, now we are in 2023, have not yet checked, but are Apple computer products still overpriced in the DR? I live there and I am flying back next week and will need a new mac soon, so I might as well buy it up front and take it with.. .sorry for bothering

I have not looked specifically for Apple products here, but I will guess that any big tech items you buy here will be overpriced.  When you buy from a local merchant, you're paying for the convenience of having it now.  They have to buy the product themselves somewhere and probably pay Customs fees and taxes for having it imported.  Then, they have to add a bit so they can make money off the whole transaction.

I shopped locally for an Amazon Firestick - prices were about 5,000 RD, roughly.  That's about $100 US.  I bought the same thing on Amazon for about $30 - I just had to wait for it to ship.  Of course, I had to pay a shipping fee at EPS, but it was probably $5 or less. 

For a Macbook, I would buy before you leave and bring it with you. 

EDIT:  I have seen on here where, if you're buying a new laptop to bring with you, take it out of the box and go through the whole setup process.  Otherwise, if you bring it in while it's still in the box, they will assume your goal is to sell it here and will charge you fees and taxes.  Also, even if it's not in the box, they might get suspicious if you're bringing in two computers.  You'll need to explain that:  one is for personal, one is for work, or something like that.  Otherwise, consider switching over to your new computer before you leave and bringing only that one.

Absolutely agree, bring it with you. Macs are expensive here.
