    Hi,

    I'd like to know from you where you bought your Samsung notebook (if you have one, of course!).

    Dynamism.com sells some Samsung models but they add a 100 percent profit on their products.

    Dynamism.com must import the notebooks from other countries. And therefore they have to pay custom charges. You can be sure that they don't add 100 percent on their notebooks (I compared some prices). Don't forget the high exchange-rate dollar-euro ...

    Yeah I know 100 percent was an exaggeration. I was just trying to point out the fact that they ridiculously overcharge on many of their products.

    Yeah, after looking at the pricing again, dynamism doesn't seem so bad after all.

    The problem is that Samsung notebooks are generally expensive. But you get for your money really good products ...
    When you buy a imported product from Dynanism what warranty you get?

    I think it's a 1 year warranty provided by Dynamism because reformatting the hard drive and putting the U.S. version of Windows will definitely void the warranty.

    New samsung q30+ is still cheaper on dynamism.com than it would be in Germany (above 3500 Euro, just nonesense!).
