    Hi, I'm thinking of getting a sager in singapore but am heading to uk soon. would a different sager supplier in the uk accept the sager warranty or would i have to ship it back to sg/us?

    A Q for Neil mayhap.

    Just out of curiosity, why not just wait until you've moved to the UK if it's not going to be too long until you leave? It will save you a lot of hassle.

    I'm trying to avoid VAT :p It also seems to be cheaper than in the uk too!

    Hi laluna and welcome to nbr.
    saving on vat is a very good point as it certainly does hit us hard in the uk.

    are you returning to singapore or will you be staying in the uk.
    reason i ask is just in case you do have to return it how much will it cost both ways. what if in the unlikely event you have to return it twice. after paying out for the courier and return costs i wonder if this will add up to roughly what you paid in vat if you bought it in the uk.

    as Oiad mentioned you can ask Neil from kobalt. he is active on this forum or you could mail him using the link in my sig below.

    As the clevo vendors in the UK ar not affiliated with sager in any way, I am almost certain that they won't accept sager warranties.
