Best place for Apple products?

Where's the best place in Hong Kong to buy Apple products? I've tried a few places but I haven't found a place where I would want to go back a second time!
Thanks

Tried the one on Stanley street in Central? The only apple gizmo that I've purchased was from there and they seemed ok (not like I have high expectations from any of these shops).

If you want real Apple products (rather than other brand accessories) they seem to be pretty much price-controlled, so I've ordered stuff from the Apple Store online since you're unlikely to save more than the cost of travelling to anywhere else to buy it. Shipping is free, and for iPods so is engraving on the back.

Reena2 is on a distinguished road
Got our MacBook at the Apple kiosk in Fortress (Times Square). The Apple rep was really helpful. Got an ipod at Broadway (Times Square) and was happy w/ that also.

Not not Apple products, which like you say are price controlled, but other brand accessories: like a one-stop shop of all things that are Apple-friendly and compatible! I'm just fed up with spending hours at the Sham Shui Po/Wanchai Computer Centers trying to find a store that won't cheat me or isn't trying to sell me "last season" stuff.

I'm obviously out of my depth here. I can't imagine how any Apple product might have seasonality!

After asking around appleclub.com.hk is your best bet. The resellers make hardly any profit on some items and see no interest in stocking them, and have no idea about supporting many items of Apple's line up.
