I heard US ship with retail box.

Once you had it please show up on here.
Mine was standard packaging only :(

I have a feeling I am. Add on 3yrs onsite with international warranty plus buyforme fees of 5% is usd$1527. Guess with shipping and gst will be another few hundred.

Oh.. so if order online from US, it will be shipped with retail box. But if order online locally, it will be manufactured in China, which will only be shipped with normal brown colored shipping box..? Oh my goodness...:(

I saw on youtube, some reviewers unboxing with their order and their laptop is simply packed inside the brown colored shipping box and not the retail box. :(

Hi, If you get comgateway to get them for you, will they go through the trouble to go through perks offer site for you?

I am looking to get X16 max spec via their site but got kinda rejected previously. :/ I am now trying to get my friend to ship to his parent's place in oregon for tax free as well.

I gave specific instructions and link for them to make the purchase. For now it looks like they managed to place an order. Hopefully nothing screwed up as this is an order for an order.

I am almost to place an online order but saw this news that online order doesn't comes with retail packaging. It's a bit discouraging. :(
