He mentioned that he got it from the US, and I checked the prices of this laptop, it's more or less 73-77k.

I want to thank rider for helping me select the laptop. I was completely unaware of this lap. It just came from US. Here are some snaps.

Here is an Amazon link for example. Cost 1,344$= 73,422.59.

Since he did not mention any details about customs duty/tax, someone must have brought the laptop for him, lucky dude!

Awesome laptop for that price! :D

Hi, I am thinking of buying it from newegg.com.

Can you please tell me if the warranty is valid, as in Asus India will take it and I wont need to ship it to USA. Did you ever avail Asus India services on this laptop?

I meant will an indian Asus service center repair my laptop in case of any hardware issues. I dont expect much, not ADP, but genuine issues like motherboard etc. Cause many a times these service centers refuse to do so if the exact same model with exact same config is not available in India.

I am an MBA student :p I dont even know if I would get time to be able to game. I am hoping I would. I am all hearts for Y500 and buying the Ultrabay GPU. Actually a friends brother is coming from the US. And I am contemplating which to buy. I could have bought the Y500 with SLI and 3630QM for 60k, but I dont think warranty would be valid in india. :(

This Asus one am getting for 1400$ (77k).

This Asus one am getting for 1400$ (77k).
now i would suggest to go for g75vx, which has got a gtx 670mx gpu wich is way better than gtx 670m (i should hav waited for some more days). and it cost in ur range. and never buy from newegg.com . here is the lap link. u can add ram and a SSD later.

Amazon.com: ASUS G75VX G75VX-BHI7N09 17.3-Inch Laptop: Computers & Accessories

i havnt till now needed any service assistance frm asus india. but this lap is officially available in india and they hav to service it, cos it has got 1 yr international warranty. and HAPPY GAMING..

ok got it!
But a Laptop for gaming :/

dude, im a college student. and guess what, im playing crysis 3 with high settings during free hours. (portable)

@ OP what do you mean by tax... did you pay for customs?
Did you buy using your credit card? and if you did what was anything extra charged on your cc, for FX conversion?
