| There is an Apple store in COEX mall, Gangnam.... I think the name is A#, or something like that. It's way in the back. ^^ They have lots of things there. I just bought my iPod nano from there 2 days ago. The guy that helped me spoke English. |

There's an Apple store in COEX (right now while it's under construction, Apple products can be gotten at O-Links).
There's another one down the street from Shinsa station.
Yongsan has an Apple service center, but I haven't been there in a couple years, I don't know what they sell, if anything.
The Shinsa store is the one I go to usually. It has the largest selection at the moment (when the COEX store opens, that will be the place to go) |

| Kiwi Tart is correct. There is an apple store in COEX that has the full range of goods including some older notebooks with reduced prices. It is not under construction. Link O is also selling some apple products but the A# store is much bigger and has a wider variety of apple products. Some of the staff there speak English too. |

The ones I remember were the macbooks with the core duo and 512mb ram, 1mill I think but not 100%sure might have been 950 000, not cheaper enough for me to consider getting. There were some other things there too but I did not look at them to find out what they were. |

| they'll be the same prices as on the apple website with refurbished apples. apple doesn't allow stores to set their own prices. |

8th floor around the left as you get off the escalator. One guy sorta speaks English, if he's working that day. |

There's an Apple service center (they don't sell anything, only service) in an alley behind the YMCA building. I was told there is an Apple Store of some sort in Myoung-dong, but was not told how to find it. If it exists, it is well-hidden.
Went to the A# store in COEX today, and was not very impressed. Most everything in there is geared to the iPods and it's accessories. The selection of laptops was not great, and nothing bigger than the 13" screen models; didn't see any desktop models at all. A number of the new iMacs though.
Even though is is MUCH smaller, the Shinsa station store has a better selection, IMO. They carry more software than at COEX, plus they've got desktop models and 17" Macbooks. |
