Hi, I am interested to buy a W540 and I hope to know why your W540 is much cheaper than official site? Is your laptop new or refurbished? Thanks.

If it's marked as "New", it's a brand new computer. Authorized resellers will almost always have a better price than at Lenovo's website. Lenovo sells the majority of its products through two channels: via their website and through resellers. Lenovo's website is mostly for a custom-configured systems. They are made to order, single units, usually. Reseller models are mass produced and Lenovo offers discounts to resellers on them because it costs them less to manufacture (easier to set up the assembly line for the same configuration for hundreds and thousands of units, than re-configure the assembly line to accommodate just one computer that was custom-configured). It's kind of like buying a car: the standard "preconfigured" models on the dealers lot are a lot less expensive compared to if you decide to tweak something that has to be custom-built at the car factory - the price goes significantly higher.

Actually, even though I had ordered this laptop, the vendor never sent it. They had some back order problem and they themselves cancelled the order. So, sorry I can't shed any light on what you are asking.

It came brand new to me. I've been using it for a while now. I didn't notice it to be refurbished.

Yes, The laptop is like new, brand new. It was only opened the box and turned on and off. All software is the same like a brand new Asus. The item is also on Warranty in Asus if in the future is any software/hardware problem.Do you want images of it? outside or the laptop turned on?

I received my laptop (HP 2000-2d89NR) on January 17th 2015 from the company "e-Wholesaler" and there is NO sticker on the bottom of the unit with the windows product key and there is sticker residue where the sticker was ripped off. Today January 19th I have emailed e-Wholesaler requesting that they message me back with the product key. I will post a follow up to this message if they respond.

Is it being sold as new? This might be a refurbished drive. In any event, WD's website can provide warranty info and drive status.

I have the standard model 20BG0016US, with a sealed-by-Lenovo box and with the 4800MQ see http://psref.lenovo.com/Detail/65?M=20BG0016US. Lenovo and other retailers sell W540s upgraded to the i7 4820K, but they're not the 20BG0016US, although some retailers may upgrade your 20BG0016US after you buy it upon request.

I purchased mine from Amazon Warehouse deals, which is a returned open box item from a previous customer but stocked and sold my Amazon. I purchased a "like new" condition Spectre and it came with original box and even included the original marketing materials etc. Not one scratch on the entire laptop, and it has worked flawlessly. Mine even had 9 months remaining on the original 12 month warranty through HP. Well worth the $300+ I saved from the "new" price.

Fyi, for all of you purchasing from AAA MART; beware!! They have horrible reputation with this particular laptop. They also bully people to remove negative feedback and any claims against them. Good Luck!!

Don't exactly know what you mean by "what was refurbished" the laptops itself is refurbished. But besides that, it's a really good computer, nothing it can't do coming from a PC gamer.

Agreed, Amazon can shove it. Just bought one off of eBay. Base price was 1889.99 shipped, but I get $151.20 cash back from Windows Live, and hopefully another $56.70 cash back from ebates.com for a total price of $1682.09. Ordered it today around lunchtime, will be delivered tomorrow between 10 and 2. (beat that, Amazon).

I bought a NV55C49u almost a year ago. I really like it. I think it outperforms my Dell laptop I just bought last month.

yes but truly truly, i don't recomend you to buy this laptop, shame on the warranty because is only eleven months, right now im looking for a piece which doesn't even exist separetely in a shop, if you want to buy you have to pay the rapair fee wich is more than Us 239. so in that way i think is not good to recomend. Hope my answer helps you. take care

Scott, The technology you mentioned is over my head. I did a search within "Help & Support" of your terms found no matches. I will tell you I purchased the refurbished computer with a newly installed Windows 7 Professional operating system from Ezbuycafe in November 2013 and have been delighted with the computer and EzBuyCafe. The seller's current rating is 4.9 stars (out of 5 stars) over the 546 ratings for the past year. You'll be well served with this computer from EzBuyCafe.
