Hello,
I'd like to ask for some advice from folks living in HKG - I want to buy a customized MBP 17 with faster CPU and anti glare LCD (will upgrade RAM and SSD myself). I saw quite a few treads here discussing availability of CTO MBP models in Apple stores, but I am presently located in a SE Asia where such model has delivery time of 1 month + I have a record of bad luck getting laptops in the past with dead pixels, which is why I would like to see the screen in a shop before I pay for it (going through refunds or repairs is a nightmare without guaranteed outcome).
I called Apple HKG yesterday to enquire whether they have any CTO models on display in the store, but the guy kept repeating that they carry only stock models and CTO must be ordered online. If anyone lives in HKG or had been there in Apple store, could you please confirm this?
Thanks a lot!
