'AppleCare One' is Now Even More Valuable

[FreakinEurekan]

Aren't prices on electronics super-high in Australia? Sounds like that warranty isn't "free" after all...

A base MBP M5 is $2000 in the US. In Australia, the same model is A$3200 ($2233 USD). Looks like a $233 warranty to me! 🙂

Quick google... "In Southern California, sales tax ranges from a baseline of 7.25% up to 11.25% depending on the specific city and county"

So now that "$2000" Mac is suddenly $2225. Versus the super expensive... uh... $8 premium in Australia! 🤣

Yes but that's because of the exchange rate. Unavoidable really.
