    Hi,

    I'm in Canada so I can't buy from Dell Outlet :(
    I found some guys on eBay that sell Dell Certified Refurbished Laptop from the Outlet. Will I have problem with the warranty if I have to use it ??

    you will probably only have a 30 day warranty with the seller on ebay and no warranty from dell unless he specifies that there is warranty from dell

    No, you won't have a problem. If the unit is still under Dell's warranty the seller needs to transfer ownership to you. This way you will be entitled to the remaining warranty period.

    The warranty may not transfer internationally. You need to check that out.
