Last week I had to RMA my G1S with a dead GPU. I left a note with the notebook that stated I should be contacted before any parts from the G1Sn were placed in my G1S.
Today I received my G1S with a replacement part list. Mobo/GPU and a few other random pieces were replaced in my G1S with G1Sn parts. I was not contacted as I wanted to be and upon booting up my computer I had found that the keyboard was rather noisey on the right hand side. Every key from enter right make a very long clicking noise now that wasn't present when I had sent my notebook away. Upon tapping my pagedown key a few times I found out that it will reset my notebook with a medium amount of force.
Also I find the notebook creeks and squeeks alot more then it had before I sent it in. I would say it dropped 2-3 points, on a 10 point scale, in build quality.

It is bad that their assembly job was not good and you have additional creaking.
But why complain because of the replacement to G1Sn Mobo+GPU? There is at least a chance that it is not affected by the nVidia "bad bumps" problem and will therefore last longer.
Or was it just a problem of principle?(not change your configuration until you were notified and agreed)
