    Wow that is awesome, heck I paid more for my 9750h and 1650 used! But I had to have a 2:1 and am trying to not have laptops all over the house anymore.

    Hope the people who did place orders actually get them, and they don't get cancelled on account of the price being a typo.

    Got mine today. Looks pristine, brand new, no signs of use, just the shiny stickers are gone, brand new box and inside packaging. I got the OLED screen for 1350, otherwise same specs as the 300Hz one. I have a crap ton of laptops already but when I saw this deal couldn't resist, never had 4k OLED in a laptop before. The 300Hz was gone already, or I didn't see it, otherwise I'd probably have the FHD.

    Bios is 1.0 (yey!), CPU turbo was disabled in it, I'm wondering if it was returned because i was slow, lol.

    I see lots of people returning Razers because they hate the fan profiles, I wonder if that's what's causing a good numbers of these laptops to be sold again as refurbished. It's great because original customers probably kept them ran a few benchmarks for a few days and did nothing else with them. As good as new.

    Mine arrived in pristine, more or less brand new condition. had plastic film on the screen to remove as well as original spec sticker on the upper part of the top case. Very happy with my machine!
