Just in case, it was not meant sarcasticly.

Repairs can be done by shipping it to whatever support address they provide. I haven’t done it in years but if your repair shop takes 14 days, it can be signifixantly faster.

The whole point with that 14 business days quote is that they will very likely ship it somewhere outside the country, or at the very least to another city. And if you ship it yourself you most likely have to pay for the shipping from your own pocket.

Not under warranty, Apple provides the shipping both ways.

I should have clarified: my macbook is out of the 1 year warranty. However the keyboard has problems for which there is an extended repair program (I'm not sure if this falls under an extended warranty or whatever).

Or a good way to get it repaired? Ship it to whatever address they tell you to.
