    Hello

    I am interested on getting a Clevo laptop in Spain. However, the only thing I find are resellers who are customizing the laptops. The only reseller I found who sells unbranded versions is RJTech, but that one is in Canada.

    Any ideas? I am interested on getting everything straight from Clevo and not the resllers.

    Thanks

    HIDEvolutions Evoc lineup seems to not have any branding on it. They ship everywhere.

    You cannot buy directly from Clevo anywhere.

    Hello

    Thanks. I would say they are pretty much the same as in RJTech. Same prize as well. I was looking for one in Europe, as if I try to bring it from the US I will probably have to pay VAT. Same also with warranty and such.

    I do see branding on their screens, but maybe that's only a photo.

    Thanks.

    Aw man... I love you guys Eurocom, but its Galm not Glam :(...

    Do you guys do international shipping as well? I know you ship to the U.S. but wasn't sure about spain, as I know you guys can either brand it or leave it.
    Which Clevo were you looking at?

    XMG, Inphtech and Obsidian-PC (these two are in Portugal) can sell you Clevo laptops without any branding, you just have to ask. I´m sure there are others that do the same.

    If you´re interested in a delided cpu, Obsidian-PC is a good choice.

    There are a few places that will do it in the US, I know Sager will also remove branding upon request as well.

    Ask your local resellers about shipping unbranded first. Some do it but don't advertise.

    Didn´t mention them because their after-sale service is crappy, among other things...

    As mentioned by other members, Clevo don't sell directly to customers. You have the option to buy from either a "System Integrator" (who will build the laptop up to your specification, or who may build laptops up for other companies to resell) or a "Reseller" who may sell laptops branded from other companies or unbranded chassis. We (XMG) are a System Integrator and as such we build laptops for our XMG customers, but we also sell barebones to other business customers and a lot more. Because of this we have XMG branded and also non-branded chassis available, but we don't always advertise this on every product on our website.

    If you contact our European sales team at [email protected] they will be able to tell you if the model chassis you want is in stock non-branded :) They all speak fluent English and some other languages so communication isn't a problem!

    That's correct. Anything that you import such as a laptop will go through your customs department and you'll have to pay 21% VAT on the value of the purchase if it comes from outside of Europe. Warranty is an important thing to take into account, especially if shipping costs are covered by the standard warranty and also the length - make sure that it's not only labour but also parts and shipping that are covered in a 2 or 3 year warranty.

    Your best choices are EU resellers.. My CEG P771ZM has no branding and is pretty cheap if you ask me.. Clevo Centre in portugal, Obsidian PC are some of your other choices..
