One maybe?
I memory serves, here's a little booth on the third floor of the huge building which is next to the subway station.
In the building. it is very near the entrance to the covered pedestrian bridge that leads to the station. And they don't have much selection. |

There are a couple in Yongsan actually (this one and maybe two more that I have seen). Don't expect too much as "the eye" said though. Shop at the authorized Apple shops in Coex or whatever. You're not going to get a better deal in Yongsan for a Mac I don't think. |

Just go to the COEX one....they actually have stuff in stock, unlike the jerks out at Yongsan...who may have ipods, but use PC laptops...grrrr.
AND...the Apple repair shop is close to the COEX store, so if you need directions, they've got a map there and also know the working hours....btw the service store is closed after 12noon on Saturdays. |

Thanks, all taken care of however! I bought online. (Turns out that's the only legit way to get anything customized.) |

awesome....I've got a macbook that i'm contemplating selling to help save up for one of those beautiful new 8Core Towers of Power.....*sigh* and the Logic Studio....$499 and you get a crapload of stuff with it. Perfect for my audio/video recording/editing needs!
Apple's really going for the jugular in respects to other DAWs....They've slashed the price on Logic from 1200 to the friendlier 499....They're finally getting competitive, thank goodness! |

If you order by phone, and pay cash, they give you a 3% discount. |

Better yet, go for the 10% education discount! Just click on the "education store" (can't remember the 한글, sorry) link online and there's the same damn store but everything's 10% cheaper. On your way to the checkout, there's a page where you have to click on something that says "I swear to God I'm a teacher/student/civil servant", but no further verification is needed. |

Sure, just go into the regular store and in the left-hand column there's a text link (down a bit) that says "교육 할인 스토어". |
