    hi everyone ^^ sorry if this is in the wrong section or something. wasnt sure where to put it..i have a slight problem because my credit card's shipping address is in Norway, but i want a laptop shipped to the States...
    Does anyone know an online store selling a *configurable* Fujitsu n6410, that accepts billing addresses outside of the US? :confused:

    Try calling/emailing them. They have good customer service. And since they take international orders that means they accept international CCs, which would be the main issue.

    The shipping to a different address could be done by contacting your bank, and having them add your US address as an address that you can ship to. I think any store with fraud protection will require that.

    But speak/email P1 first.

    qwester's right. It states right on the page he linked to that they don't accept international orders online. I'm sure if you call or email them they'll help you out.

    What forms of payment do they accept for international sales? I'd be curious to know as it may help out other users who have the same problem in the future.

    Hm. Does your credit card company allow you to draw cash advances against your balance? (I know a couple of mine do) If so, you could then deposit the cash and do a wire transfer. Kind of a convoluted solution and a pain in the neck, but workable. Just a thought.

    If you let you CC company know you are shipping to a different address you can order it from our website.

    I know that P1 is in California. Where does www.shopfujitsu.com ship from?
    What is the S&H cost to Toronto/Canada?
    Is Fujitsu US 3 yr warranty applicable in Canada?

    You definatley can call Fujitsu at 1 800 FUJITSU for free. According to the site for canada ( www.fujitsu.ca ) shipping is free until the end of April, you can purchase 2 additional warranty years ( 1 included ). Shopfujitsu.com ships from tennesse or japan, depending on how you order it.

    I cannot order from Canada. I think it was not configurable or something else, I forgot. So I can only order from USA P1 or Fujitsu.com, but then the shipping is not free (?)
