hope this would be your last post that doesn't make any sense and looks more like a troll post.

^^ LOL!! That was a great laugh.

@OP
A laptop (it costs much lesser there), Some Apple products, A Roomba(mandatory).

@pauldmps his budget is 6k. i don't think he can get a laptop for that price.

he can get some exciting mobile deals there. at 6-7k, some good mobiles should be available.

^^ Like ???

@Desiibond

I know his budget. I guess the list is according to my budget.

but for any electronics item he purchase from dere.. he wont get any warranty?
so should we advice purchasing such things from USA?

Well I had no intentions to ruin this thread...I like weapons and weapon systems and like to own one....and think as a suggestion it was not bad either. ;-)

Some1 plz clear my dilemma

if you are using LG O1, stick to it.

check Dell Inspiron 15 and Sony E-series for laptops inside 35k.

Check this:

Newegg.com - lenovo IdeaPad Y560 (0646-5LU) NoteBook Intel Core i5 480M(2.66GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory DDR3 1066 500GB HDD 5400rpm DVD±R/RW ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730
This laptop costs about 50k in India whereas only 36k in US ($799.99 = 36.2k approx). Also the HD 5730 graphics can handle most recent games on medium-high settings on decent frame rates.

Another model HP DV7 series:
HP Pavilion dv7 and dv7t series | HP® Official Store

Configure it with 1GB HD 5650 which is almost the same performance as the HD 5730.
This laptop has a huge 17.3" screen & is not available in India. It will cost about $749.99 (Rs. 34k).

Two things you must consider before getting a laptop from the US are:

1. That you can avail the warranty here in India.

2. That the laptop is designed to work in a hotter climate like that of India.

HP is not advisable as far as warrranty from other country goes ..... Dell has a provision for warranty transfer ....
Any other suggestions .... how about IPhone 3Gs ???

But im an Android fan ...

I don't think that the iPhone would cost substantially lesser in the US (without contract) & you'll have hassles getting it unlocked even if you buy it without contract.

Other members might suggest you Android phones which are not yet available in India(I can't think any of such)

yes without contract it costs around 550$
........ with At&T contract its just 50$ ............ should i go for it ?

You won't be able to get a contract device here. Your friend (or whoever purchases the phone) has to pay the monthly contracts even if the phone is not used.

i dint get you ........

If we (the tourist) is purchasing it ? .............

OH ! God .... i wanna buy it .... but don want to end up using it just like an IPOD

The prices you saw are carrier (network) subsidized under contract which is the system in the US.

That is, you need to pay a hefty amount per-month to the carrier for you data plan (about 2-3k) for a specified time (about 1-2 years).

And in this time-duration, you cannot switch carriers, it is illegal to do so & handset is also locked to that particular carrier.

Your friend will still have to pay the monthly rentals until the contract ends.

If you purchase as a tourist, you'll have to buy it for the off-contract price which is almost the same as in India.

Hey .... i have heard people who havent activated the IPhone (taken from USA)and brought it here ... And get it cracked and unlocked here .... and USE .........
