Well, I am planning on buying a Macbook Pro once they get updated and was planning on buying online at clubmac.com. Is there any disadvantage at buying there versus buying at an Apple Store? The reason I am buying there is because I can get my same student discount plus I do not have to pay tax. Has anyone delt wth this company before? Thanks for the help.
Got a tip for us?

If you get a chance check out Macmall as well. I just bought my Macbook from them. I got a 75 dollar MIR, an Epson Printer Free ( After MIR), a bag pack Free after MIR, another bag pack for 10 dollars after MIR, and Parallels desktop software Free After MIR.
I know there are a lot of MIR (Mail in rebates) here.. but I have had good experience with them before. Plus they don't charge TAX for Ohio
, which also helped me save a bundle.
It was shipped on Monday from TN and was delivered in Central OH on wed. That's fast shipping. and Free after mail in rebate ..
Hope this helps..

I'm not seeing where you can get a student discount. (Unless you were referring to the regular apple store with the student discount?)
Yes, I was refering to the regular Apple Store student discount.

I would use Macmall but unfortunately, since I live in California, I must pay tax if I were to shop there.
