Where to buy the G50V-A1 in Canada?

I've been checking the online resellers and so far the cheapes I've foung the laptop is $1579.99 at Filtech Computer.

It's a good price, but I'm waiting to hear back from them.

Anyone know of a better place to check?

 

hmmm, I am also looking at buying one, swiftgamers, has it for 1530$ with free shipping in Canada. For me, I live in BC so there is only GST tax which is 40 or 50$...making the grad total about 1710$!

However, has anyone bought from www.swiftgamers.com before? are they reliable?

It's actually $1630.00. I'm in BC too.

I'm in Toronto and my options would be to order from anitec and save the PST but pay $26 shipping or buy and pickup from ESNG or Filtech at pretty reasonable prices.

Would Asus honour warranties from these resellers?

 

Filtech is listed on the ASUS site as a reseller, so yes to that one.

 

Bought mine from Anitec.

 

Dave, did you ship or pickup?
What's your opinion on Anitec?

 

My friend just bought his Asus M50Vm-B1 from esng, I recommend them. They are the cheapest.

 

Actually, Filtech looks to be the cheapest and is a certified Asus reseller.

 

Just called ASUS and they said that as long as the computer has all the warranty stickers on it, not a refurb, then your good to go.

Also verify the warranty with the seller.

 

Wow, 1579.99 for the G50V-A1 is hot.

 

That's their cash price.

swiftgamers.com is not a bad deal when you consider their price is $1630.00 with free shipping and I can use Visa.

 

Still cheaper to use esng. It will come out to 1625 if you want to use Visa.

 

Question is, do I buy now or wait to see if the price drops anymore?

 

Buy now... I didn't see any price drops in the previous generation...

 

I want one, but I don't need it right away. I'd prefer to wait a month or so and then purchase, but I'm worried that some online sellers will only carry the G50V-A1 until their stock runs out.

 

I might sell my G50 A1 if anyone is interested. I'd be looking for $1500 shipped and it's in brand new condition. PM me.

 

why would you sell it? you just bought it.

 

It was more of an impulse buy than anything and I'm going through buyer's remorse lol. I bought it from ncix.com for 1749 + tax. I tried returning it but they do not accept returns for non defective laptops.

Believe me, it is an amazing laptop, but I wouldn't be using it for games anyway.

So seriously, if anyone is remotely interested I can send pics etc proving ownership. It has less than 1 hour of running time. It is packed in the box ready to go. I think $1500 is a good deal, considering it is in brand new condition.

 

It would be tempting. When and where did you buy it?

 

I ordered it Last Thursday and received it on Tuesday (3 days ago). I opened it, turned it on, played with it for an hour then repackaged everything, realizing that I don't need it and it was as stupid purchase on my part.

I bought it from ncix.com. They are a reputable Canadian seller out of BC. 2 year warantee still applies as well, including the 1 year accidental.

 

If you want to sell your notebook, please, go to the Buy/Sell/Trade forum and post a thread in full compliance with the rules of that forum. Thank you. You can then return and post a link here, and discussion can continue there.
