    Greetings.

    This is rather fast question, and yes — i read the FAQ, still i choose to ask:
    Any reseller who has proven to be reliable enough / can / will ship to Kiev Ukraine? I am willing to pay what it takes and wait a week or two but obviously it shouldnt be via regular post since in our country they can easily "loose" your mail.

    Do i have any options?

    Thanks for the info.

    The shipping is usually done with a courier company, for which there is insurance. Besides, if you order from some store, I am sure they will be happy to communicate with you and choose the appropriate way to ship it. You should be worry about the customs maybe more.

    Indeed, i am checking customs now and it seems like i will need to pay extra 30% if not more IF i am buying the laptop. If i go to that country myself i would be able to buy it, unpack, use and carry over to ukraine without declaring anything since you dont need to declare "used laptop" which you are actually using.

    But even with 30% it should be a decent deal since otherwise my only choice is MSI GX660 (for around $1400, which is actually a decent price) or Asus G53JW (for around $2000 and thats a bit over the roof already). ^^ I want a powerful gaming notebook.

    Can probably get better laptop cheaper from Sager.

    also take a look at Kobalt who are in the uk. they have almost 50 countrys they deliver to and if yours isnt listed they can give advice on a way around it.

    I see. Well thank you, i am currently checking how much will it cost me overall.
    Too bad we are still stuck with sandy bridge not being available. Kobalt for example dont have anything available right now pretty much, except for some 5kg monsters.
