buying UK spec MP or MBP from abroad tip?

[whitehexagon]

Besides the fact that I'm waiting for the spec upgrades. I have another burning issue. It seems almost impossible to buy UK spec hardware from abroad. I'm in Switzerland at the moment and the apple store here will only do US keyboards. If I try to order from amazon uk, they won't deliver outside the UK. If I look at apple de, they have UK KB, but also wont deliver outside Germany. It seems like apple wont compete across the borders with itself, which is fine unless you are in my situation!

Advise before Tuesday would be appreciated

Get a friend in the UK to buy whatever hardware you want and then have them ship it over to Switzerland. Job done.

Just make sure you remember to pay your friend back.
