Order A Iphoto Book

[Putu94]

It is still not possible to order a iPhotobook.

I try it for a few years now, but it still will not work.

Apple has no store in Thailand so you will end up in Singapore.

The information I got from them, that it is a custom problem .

A bit strange because I order my new iMac a month ago without any problem, so also with other hard and software.

There is a way around , if I use as shipping address the name of my brother (Holland) it will be send there

but it cost you 2 times shipping cost, from apple to the shipping address and again the cost from my brother to me.

is there somebody with the same experience ?

Is there a reseller in your area? They may be able to help you. I am getting ready to purchase a new mac myself and I hope it will all go smoothly. I live near Udon Thani and there are 2 resellers there and both are legit

We have resellers in our area (Mahasarakhamam and Khonkaen ), they are Ok, but I prefer to buy in the AppleStore .The shipping cost nothing and you will get mostly even quicker the with the resellers, anyhow if you not live in BKK

If you decide to order a photobook (iPhoto) there is no way to buy printproducts, it wil go always to the AppleStore, and yourshipping address is Thailand.

Some more information:

I wrote allready in 2011

http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/433268-apple-photo-services/

ths is correct, resulting of the fact that Apple does not have a own Branch in Thailand,

this is also why there is no itunes store available.
due copyright issues (we may all know the situation arround here).
Hardware is simply Shipped over other stores (HK or SG) ..
but value added services with Copyright issues are't available.
this counts also for:

- books
- music
- movies
- print
- cards
- gifts (except Vouchers for the app store)

In Apple discussions:

There is a similar situation here in Thailand. What I have done in the
past is to create the book/calendar/card and save it as a PDF. I then
take the file to one of the better printers and have them print it. One
of the printers here had a tied in to Apple and they printed the book (I
have been to others for cards, etc.) and sent it to me within 24 hours.
The exported files came both from iPhoto and Aperture

I not understand "

One of the printers here had a tied in to Apple ?

So for my Photobook I have to look for something else ......... Apple do something ?

Look here
