1219749 2011-07-28 23:24:00 Has anyone purchased a lap top over seas, say britain or USA ?

What was the experience like ?

Easy secure paying ?

Good sales service ?

What about service for h/w or s/w problems ?

Cheers,

Customers I have had, one had an Acer, had an illegal copy of Windows on it, came from a shop - obviously not reputable and it was also out of warranty, which we discovered after contacting Acer, which was also a total nightmare.

If you ever want to buy from HK, go to a store called 'Fortress' . Cheap and real .

Bought a samsung netbook overseas and it had international warranty so no probs .
