hey guys, if I order with gentech, using the usps standart (149 USD) one... how long will it take? 2 months? cause its freight right? It doesn't include insurance either right?

So its better to use the UPS one that comes with insurance? Is gentech the best one to use if i'm shipping it back to msia? and also... with the item be taxed when it arrives here?

guys, are there store in lowyat that sell the G series laptops at imported price?

hm, mucro asia has a shop in simlim right? I wonder if they take preorder for the G53

if the G53 could change colour like alienware then it would be even more awesome >=D

Gentech will give a 3% cash back discount if you pay using Paypal Check.

Paypal check is just like normal check, takes some time to process, not the usual instant payment like normal paypal.

Hm... should i order it from Gentech? or get it from sgcubehubs? I think sg better right? the other thing is i have until feb 2011 to get the laptop. Should i get it now? or should i wait incase they change the specs abit in the future?

I've checked the sgcubehub, dun mind buying from them since the price is RM5.5K, about the same as ordering from Gentech, and also i get to see the laptop first...

hahaha the G53 is already more than i need, just wondering whether i should get it early or late...

oh lol, just realize backlid can change the options... hm... maybe order from gentech then...

but the 3D is the red/blue glasses 3d one right?

@thxxht you said ur using comgateway to ship into malaysia... is that better than gentech's USPS shipping service?

@Clarencerx which online shop do you use in aussie? cause if the price is the same as the US shops, i might get one when i go to aussie instead.

Hm, singapore cube hub change the spec, now come with 750GB hdd.... last time was 500GB...
Singapore might be better option for me than import from US... hm...

@riku wait... isn't it usually GTX460m > GTS 450? i mean like GTX260m > GTS360m that one i understand la.... but...

17" vs 15.6" main diff. Also G73Jh = HD5870 while G73Jw = GTX460m (or either way around)
G53Jw comes only with GTX460m. (but G53Jw should be out only on 22 oct)


sager is cheaper than asus.

hm, was speaking to a guy in singapore. He told me after the initial import of G53Jw into singapore... the next batch will only be the 3D version... no more normal de... How about america?

ugh, now i'm not sure I want to wait till jan to get a laptop... can't afford 3D version (guy told me its retail is around 3300 SGD)

hey guys, just want to ask those people that used comgateway service. Roughly how much does it cost?

ok thanks, is it worth using express? both got tracking?

yea... i think i'm going to order the G53Jw within this week... just a question on payment... I can't use my credit card in Malaysia... So have to set up a paypal account and pay using paypal? Or should I use the comgateway service to pay for it? 10% cannot afford....

I can't get a 3% discount using the TT right? and how long does it take to clear the TT payment?
(so far this is what i plan... G53Jw with bluray upgrade, shipping using standard comgateway shipping. The box is 8kg, So the shipping cost should be 70 US)
hopefully the total will be under 5.3k MYR
