Just made an order through the Shopback app

Called the number and was told waiting time is 12 weeks.
This is the best offer I can get unless they send it late and I get rebate, right?

Edit: I just noticed I can change color and even extend warranty to 4 years if I build-to-order with same specs and roughly about the same price. Should I cancel and reorder?

But that's not accounting for vouchers given by lenovo to extend your warranty after receiving the laptop. (15~20%)

So the margin could be lesser in the end.

Don't understand this part? Would you mind to elaborate please? What does 15-20% mean? Margin lesser in the end?

It's complicated but here goes.

If legion 5P max spec extend now vs extend later for 4 years Legion Ultimate Support, price is same in the end. Could be lesser if you extend upon receiving if you use the promo code to reduce the warranty add on when you receive the laptop.

BUT

If legion 5P max spec downgrade to REGULAR ONSITE 4 years vs 4 years Ultimate Support, price diff is about 130+ cheaper if you downgrade.

Get it?

Yes. I got it. I personally will choose 4 years Carry In Warranty in my BTO. I'm staying just 10 mins away from a Lenovo Service Center so I'm happy to drop by.
I care about the color though, the stingray white is only available in BTO so it's one of the main reason I plan to change to BTO.

I prefer on site because they can immediate fix stuffs instead of waiting for parts.

To each of its own, but do consider parts shortages are quite serious currently.

You don't want your laptop to sit at a center for a prolonged period esp during this era.

If I order with drop off warranty, do I have the option to upgrade to onsite warranty after I receive the order later?

yes, you can. But the price will be at regular price, higher than you order time.

Any good deals with Thinkpad right now? Or should I wait?
