    EDIT: Title should be Lenovo Retailers in the US.

    Hello,

    I was just curious if there are any online retailers that hold Lenovo computers (with international shipping) or alternatively, if there are any stores that sells them (a friend is going to the US over easter)?

    I am drooling over the Lenovo X220 but the retail price for the last generation X-series, namely the X201 retails for $2900 here in Norway which is rediculous. With this in mind I am pretty sure the new generation, X220, will be priced quite far above $3000 and there is no way I am paying that when it sells for a third of the price in the US.

    Appriciate your help

    Thanks!

    I tried that Provantage and got a final price of $1400 for the X220 mid-range config. Not bad at all!

    Does Provantage ship to Norway? I tried to order it to Singapore, but it doesn't work. Actually, eventually, i couldn't find any retailers shipping to Singapore and I need to ask my friend in US to help...

    I haven't ordered anything yet but according to the website they do ship to Norway (atleast for the Lenovo X220). Costs $59 in shipping but well worth it if I can get it for $1400 rather than $3000+++.

    EDIT: I just picked the Lenovo X220 with shipment to Singapore and it worked fine (although I obviously did not complete the transaction). The total price came up with a shipping fee of $55.75 ending at $1480
