“The non-availability of Apple products and support though an easily accessible interface (retail stores, web-sites etc) in Greece is a decisive factor against buying such products in Greece. The main importer’s efforts (including localisation) may be “valiant” but, the penetration of Apple products in the Greek market is mainly based on the courtesy of “authorised re-sellers” for stocking, displaying and marketing your products, especially in areas away from the Greek capital. I have experienced this much myself and I have seen friends being put off.”
