University of Colorado System departments using an IN or INIC to purchase Apple computer systems direct from Apple via phone, through the Apple on-line Education Store, or even the Procurement Service Center, ARE PAYING TOO MUCH!

Just follow these easy steps to get better pricing at the CU Book Store:

  • Simply log onto the Apple Education site, carefully select the computer(s) with the exact specifications you want, along with any other Apple products desired, and place these selections in your Apple shopping cart.
  • Click on the green “Submit Proposal” button (bottom right side).
  • Complete the “Proposer’s Information” area with your information.
  • Enter:  charles.johnson@colorado.edu in the “Proposer’s Information” area.
  • Enter your email address if you desire in the “Additional Email Address(es)” space if you want a copy for your records.
  • If you’d like to add comments, please do so as indicated in the optional comments area.
  • When I receive your Apple proposal, I’ll work up a price quote for your review and acceptance. I will do this within one business day. You’ll see that the over-all price to you is cheaper than anywhere else when you see the CU Book Store’s proposal.
  • If it’s easier and more convenient or you have troubling logging on to the Apple site, just call me, Chuck Johnson at (303) 492-3429, and I’ll help you set-up the quote on-line.
