Wouldn&#x27;t it just be easier to post those drugs of yours across to your dealer(s)?<p>Google is your friend:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ipoint.com.ar&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ipoint.com.ar&#x2F;</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ipoint.com.ar&#x2F;217-macbook" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ipoint.com.ar&#x2F;217-macbook</a>

Sorry this was a poorly worded question. Because exchange rate and taxes buying a macbook in Argentina is insanely expensive. I was hoping the community here would share how they&#x27;ve done it (not actually find someone to carry a laptop for me).

So, you want one of us to buy a Macbook and take it to your developer? This sounds like something you should handle professionally, especially if you&#x27;ve got any compliance to worry about.
