    Clevos are made in China. They are sent out as barebones to companies like Sager to build to spec. I'm not sure if this counts as made in the US (or whichever country the builder is in) because they are assembling components made elsewhere, and you could arguably say it is already a laptop even in barebone form.

    The computer that you buy from your local store is most likely made in China also. IF not the whole computer then most of the internal parts are made in China.

    Yes I know that , but if I buy here in Canada the total is 2221.20$ shipped and I wont have any other fees and I wont have any problems... If I buy in the US its 1799.99 + 79$ Shipping but will all the fees, duty, tax brokerage change rate it will be 2158$ with USPS and I wont know if they will charge me Quebec sale tax if they do it will cost more buying the laptop in the US than Locally...

    Clevo chassis are made in Asia but Sager computers are assembled in CA. They are duty free when shipping to Canada, you will have to pay sales tax once it arrives to you.
