Hey everyone, I am a foreigner here in malaysia and I heard about lowyat mall and I wanted to buy a new laptop and I will get into the details soon
My friends told me that there is a high chance I will get cheated if I buy from lowyat because 1) lowyat is known for such stuff and second hand products (seller sells as new) and 2) I look foreigner
I want to buy a Asus ROG gl752vw with the following specs
CPU: I7 6700 HQ
GPU: GTX 960M 4gb
RAM: 16gb
SSD: 128gb
HDD: 1tb
17 inch
I know that the standard specs are 4gb ram and no ssd but I will upgrade to the specs mentioned above.
I have checked a few stores in lowyat and 1 store (small store that looks like a booth of some sort) and had the Name Asus on it and the store caught my attention because they had stock and they seemed legit and also there is 1 store that sells asus products somewhere in lowyat (I think next to KFC or something) and the brightstar company told me they have no stock and they dont know when they will get new stock and I need this laptop by next week urgently
I'm sorry if my post is too long but i'm scared of paying 5k for a new laptop then later I figure out it is a second hand
To keep the post short: I want to buy a new asus laptop from lowyat mall but I want guarantees that I will buy from a authorized reseller and no second hand at all
Thanks in advance
How can I know if a certain shop is trusted?
