As a big player in the high-end laptop game with the MacBook, it makes sense that Apple also produces a desktop computer. It’s also unsurprising to see that the machine is phenomenally expensive. We’re not saying it’s not worth it — you’re getting top-tier specs such as the Apple M2 Ultra chip, a 60-core GPU, the 32‑core Neural Engine, and 64GB unified memory. But even that base model starts at almost $7,000 in the US, before tax. If we told you that it retails for a different price in every other country, your next question might be, which are the cheapest countries to buy a Mac Pro?
It’s not just the price difference that makes the idea of buying the Mac Pro abroad a tempting prospect. A US resident buying in America has to pay sales tax, which works out to several hundred dollars on a computer of this nature. However, if you’re a tourist in another country, you can often avoid or claim that nation’s equivalent sales tax and make further savings.
