No worries . . you don't come off rude at all. At least you don't address me as Eii . . a couple of post back

I bought my Asus G73-A2 off ebay because I wanted to use paypal.

It took around 2 weeks to arrive in total, pretty fast considering it was sent via USPS.

Make sure you get your tracking, it's extremely useful when ordering such an item of high value. It allowed me to know exactly when it arrived in Malaysia and whether or not it cleared customs. It should clear customs since notebooks are free from custom duties.

Unless it's shipped via FedEx or some other specialised courier company, don't expect poslaju to deliver it to your home. If you want you can easily collect it without waiting for their notification letter. Just call them up and give them your tracking no. and they'll tell you which post office it is at. Bring your IC or passport + the tracking no. and you can go ahead and take it home.

All in all, this laptop is way cheaper than it would be in Malaysia. Got it for around 5.5k including shipping whereas I'm pretty sure when it retails locally it will be over 7k minimum. Specs are almost as good as the Alienware m17x for nearly half the price.

If you haven't seen a 17.3 inch laptop before, like me, you will be in for a HUGE suprise.

I would post some performance tests, but it seems that people have already posted plenty of that.

Good luck fellow Asus G73 owners and future owners.

correct me if i'm wrong, but GentechPc is giving a 3% discount whenever u pay by cash/paypal/cheque/bank TT....so in other words, (if you are paying via Bank TT) Gentech is also giving about usd50 discount...

By the way, you said ur uncle JUST came back from sailing?? Merchant ship?? can i ask which company?

You just quote me "Jeffrey1987". He will know it. For your info, he was extremely helpful when I bought my Asus G73Jh-A2 from him. I'm dare to say that he is one of the best e-seller I have ever met. Double thumbs up from me!

You can try to e-mail him anytime. I believe that he will answer as soon as possilbe. 

You find him via NotebookReview.com discussion too. Below is the link: (but you can't PM him if you are a new member)
