Ok the new prices seems good. However there are only 2 stock left . . so if you really want it . . you better ask your bro to grab it now. As for it being a good deal or not . .that's up to you to decide. For me, I got it based on the Spec/Price ratio.

And how many times do one need an answer to a question that have already been acknowledged by oneself? Go back a page.  doh.gif

If you're getting it delivered with USPS International, it is a definite that your package will be stopped by Custom for inspection. Since you're in Kedah, you can appoint Pos Malaysia to be your agent in clearing the package and sending it to your place. I am not sure how it works if you choose UPS from Xotic but be prepared to pay USD200+ for the UPS shipping.

Does me posting about my experience with the laptop and all meant nothing to you? sad.gif
Hehe in short . . the power brick works. It is rated 100-240v. You either get an adapter or the power cord.

Yes it got stopped by customs. And yes there are no import duties or tax for laptops in Malaysia.

As for clearing customs, you can either appoint Pos Malaysia as your agent and pay them a fee or go collect it by yourself. It's a simple task which if needed, you will have to pay RM18 for the custom clearance fee and you're set to go wink.gif

Sent April 20th ---> Into Customs 26th April.
Collected myself 27th April smile.gif

Pos Malaysia will call you to inform you that your item is held by Customs and whether you will like to collect yourself or appoint them as an agent for a fee.

i guess. he just paid the site, total. and then everything from packaging, courier etc the site company handle it. if got cought by custom, then you'll need to pay small fees or ask the pos guy to be an agent for you for a fee.

but, read somewhere, to guarantee to your door-step, you could always opted for dhl/fedex service. but bit pricey. at least, i've been using DHL, imported thousand of dollars item without getting held by customs.

and it's much cost saving if you're far away from custom center like me..need to go to JB and so much hassle etc..

Yeah sure! smile.gif but I actually asked for a specific ship date since I'm only coming back in June. So probably can only give you an update in early or mid June. tongue.gif

and yeah XoticPC is taking too long where as powernotebooks has all the models in stock. Probably will get yours in less than 2 weeks time! drool.gif + the sales advisor Donald was very helpful and I always get fast response. So would recommend him if you are ordering from them thumbup.gif

I just select USPS Worldwide, they have UPS Worldwide as well, which cost double the price as USPS i think. I paid $175 for USPS.

You have ordered yourself an A1 or A2? How much did it costs for the machine + shipping fee. I'm thinking of ordering from GenTechPC but still have a long queue on it. Thus, powernotebooks is my next target. Oh yea, how did you pay them? Via PayPal or bank wire. Personally, I want to use PayPal. biggrin.gif

I've ordered an A1. I've customised my laptop a bit, upgrade one of my hard drive to 160GB SSD and wireless card. If its a standard A1 is USD1645. Shipping fee is USD175. They have the 3% cash discount as well.

Powernotebooks currently has all the model in stock. So you can check them out. smile.gif Unfortunately they only accept wire transfer for international order.
