    do you think its worth it to buy a u330 off ebay with the live.com 30% cashback?

    i feel nervous about buying computers from anywhere except the actual manufacturer... I feel like something will go wrong with the warranty and I'll get screwed in the end.

    I am not sure about Ideapads but I know that thinkpads have warranty service tied to the machine rather than the purchaser. You might want to check with lenovo though. Also if you want to return the u330 lenovo will almost without fail charge you a 15% restocking fee which would probably be the same loss you take by selling the computer on ebay.
