Dude,

I fully agree with A-Z answer, he wrote perfectly what's happening here in Doha. Avoid unnecessary complications and get your stuff from Virgin Stores.

All d best

As greentea says, Aramex can handle most of that shipping for you.

However, I would suggest you get an estimate of the shipping cost and take into account the inherent risk of shipping fragile electronics half-way around the world before making your decision.

Macbooks are available here both at Apple kiosks and Virgin stores for example, although they are slightly more expensive than advertised US prices. However, the lack of sales taxes, shipping costs, custom delays and shipping risk often means that it's worth paying the little extra.
