I am frequently asked the question of where to install plugins for SketchUp. The answer depends on which version of SketchUp you are using, where SketchUp was installed, and which operating system it was installed on.
Here is a sure-fire way to find out where to install any plugin.
Start SketchUp
Copy and paste the following line to the SketchUp Ruby Console
Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins")
This works for all versions of SketchUp, on all operating systems:

Thank you very very much. I should show this knowledge to my forum's sketchupers. It's helpful.
Thanks for keeping up good job, Jim.
It works with my Win version SU, but on OSX + SketchUp 6.01153, it returns "true" statement and nothing happens?
my plugin folder is not there, i have an autosave foler, and nothing else!
what do i do?
Where did you install Sketchup (what folder?) and what is shownin the Ruby Consle when you type in the code from above?
sketchup.find_support_file("plugins")
Error: #
(eval):4
that is the error i was receiving.. .am trying to install Vray, but cannot find folder
@DUBPEN: Try Sketchup with a capital S.
