I've on three separate occasions had to run to an Apple store to buy the SD card reader dongle AGAIN because I left one of them at home while travelling. On each occasion the only option was the expensive 50 dollar SanDisk one, so i'm 150 dollars out of pocket due to this questionable choice already.
My wife has had similar experiences with the HDMI adapter.
This was of course never a problem during the years in which Apple provided a sensible choice of ports, built right into the machine.

- giobox 7y agoAs my post makes clear, I was travelling at the time. I'll also "let you in on a secret": Apple don't make a USB-C SD card reader.
- gridlockd 7y agoSo, you're traveling to that place on three separate occasions and you somehow always end up in the same Apple store that already ripped you off before? I'm starting to believe you like it that way.
