Visiting an Apple Store

The Apple Store is the envy of retail, with a higher sales-per-square-foot than any company in the world. Walk into an Apple Store and you’ll see why – dozens of Apple staff helping scores of happy Apple customers. Navigating all this activity can be a challenge.

When you need help purchasing products, technical help at the Genius Bar, or a workshop, schedule it ahead. An Apple representative will be waiting for you. Need to place an order? Items can be delivered to your door or picked up at an Apple Store location within an hour. Just show your photo ID and sign your name.

For easy shopping and appointments from your iPhone or iPad, use the Apple Store app. You can also place orders for shipping or pick-up with this handy tool. While you’re at the store, small items can be scanned directly with the app. No need for credit cards or cash –purchases are charged to your Apple account (the same one you use for apps and iTunes). Simply walk out the door with your new Apple gear.

As an extra convenience, we can pick up items for our clients, load the software, configure and deliver – with everything ready to use.
