also can any1 tel me if I buy this online from singapore how much time it will take it to be delivered to Malaysia and what will be the extra cost like import tax or customs or any receiving costs...
thank you...

It wont be available in Malaysia I think....

If you buy from xotic or mucro, it probably takes 2 months.
Email them to confirm the time!

No tax on laptops

Cash Discounted Price
$1594.83

Shipping using USPS, around USD 60

Bank charges in US for receiving foreign Wire Transfer = $16

$1594.83 + 60 + 16 = 1670.83

Convert to Ringgit = 1670.83 x 3.2460 = RM 5423.51

Bank charges for Telegraphic Transfer = RM 30 + 2 = RM 32

Total = RM 5455.51


From Mucro:

MYR5,486.84 + 200 Shipping = RM 5686.84

Just to add something about shipping from Xotic. It is definitely not USD60. Expect around the range of USD200-270 depending on the 3 choices of delivery that Xotic has. (at least for the G73JH)

As far as customer service, if that is important to you, then Xotic should be your choice unless Mucro has miraculously up their game and responds to customer inquiries before purchase.

And Xotic's banks does not charge anything for wire transfer. However be sure to check with your bank if they are using an agent. That agent will charge a fee and it will be better if you inform your bank to charge it directly from your account so the total amount that reaches Xotic will not be less than what its supposed to be.

Thanks for the info, didnt know xotic shipping cost that much

you guys buy from mucro.asia ?

If not mistaken some of the members bought from Mucro, just that their customer service is a bit not good. Not very responsive

From Mucro Asia

For sager N8690 same spec as Asus G73JH will custom up to MYR7787.79 (include 0% tax).

While Asus G73JH MYR5,502.22 (including 0 % tax).

Yeah, Sager is more expensive but hey at least cheaper than Alienware right?

Peeps if u got probs with online resellers taking time to respond to your purchase try Provantage as the TS stated. A fren of mine got his from them and it took less than a month for it to arrive and the price was below RM6K when he got it with delivery charges.
*
Can provide more info about it plz? How much all together he paid include shipping?
How long does it take for his G73 to arrive?

EDITED: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/PROVANTAGE_Corporation
Seems like the rating is quit low, normally around 9 and above is good
