Apple is normally very secretive about keeping the veil on Apple Stores until they are completed. Which makes this sneak peek a tasty tidbit. You may have already seen the floorplan, and you may have already seen the cloaked storefront but now… VistaSucks.WordPress.Com bring you the first spy shot of the interior of the new Apple Store Vancouver…
I personally spoke to 4 different on-site workers each of which confirmed the store should be completed “Next month.”
(Click to enlarge.)
Visible were completed wall shelves (covered and protected) with lighting in place, and a staircase at the far left end of the store which leads upstairs.
The new store is located in Pacific Center Mall, directly across from Hugo Boss. It will be next door to the H&M store which is also currently under construction. The outside of the store faces the Hudson’s Bay building and the West entrance to Granville Skytrain Station.
When coupled with Yesterday’s news of a confirmed Canadian iPhone, one can’t help but wonder if the Canadian iPhone’s release will co-incide with the opening of Apple’s newest (and most long overdue) Canadian store.
Windows Vista Refunds!

Nice store …. nothing much that we can’t buy online or other stores in Vancouver already.
I tried to buy two things today but they don’t seem set up for debit customers and sent me to wait for 10 mins at the Genius Bar to pay there but I just left it (they seem to be pushing payment by credit card for some reason?!).
Lots of people seemed to just be looking.

I ran into the same thing as Ffi with the debit card only I had to wait only 2 minutes and this was during the first 10 minutes of opening. (Total Mad house)
