Where to buy Apple in Athens, Greece

Hi,

I need to buy an Airport Experss in Athens but I'm having trouble finding a reseller (no Apple Store here). Are there any Greeks on here with useful tips?

Thanks

Well, I am not sure if this helps you because I did not find any apple shop myself. But maybe you can contact the "Apple Store Demo Centre" and ask them if they know a reseller in athesn.
The Demo Centre is located at 32 Akadimias Street in Athens, near Sintagma Place.

Hope this brings you a little bit further.

Bye,

Hi

Thanks I did try the Demo Store who recommended 2 resellers in the same street but neither had any Apple products although both offered to order an AEX but warned it could take up to 2 months. I normally buy in the UK and bring it with me to Greece, I've helped 5 Athens based friends this way with laptops, iPods and base stations in the past year. There seems to be demand but no where to buy and for whatever reason nobody has a good word to say about rainbow - slow service and extortionate mark-ups.

Rainbow really *****.

An alternate distributor is SYSTEMGRAPH on Mesogeion Avenue, at the Holargos height of the avenue. Fantastic Apple looking store and most stuff in stock.

Good Luck...

Systemgraph really needs to relocate in the centre, a quick taxi ride and google maps on the iPhone was just the ticket - the best Apple Store I've seen in Athens. Thanks so much!
