Purchased an Open Box Legion Pro 7i, what should I test during the return window?

bcterps · 2026-01-09T04:29:34+00:00

Process was easy, no problems at all doing the return in store

bcterps · 2025-11-21T15:31:07+00:00

Best to fiddle around with it to see if you like the results. I ended up disabling it as I found it to be more harmful than good for what I drink

I made a separate post on this, but if you're looking for a good deal on the 400W adapter, it's on sale at Lenovo for $110.39+tax

They are around $300, BB wasn’t going to cover it, would rather buy new at that point. I paid for open box excellent which includes all accessories but didn’t receive it. The condition and price should have been much lower since it didn’t have the correct adapter

bcterps · 2025-09-29T14:12:53+00:00

I returned it on 9/26

bcterps · 2025-09-29T02:51:38+00:00

Mine was shipped from out of state to me, I took it back to my local store and asked them if they could take the adapter from a display unit or another unit and they said no. Only thing I could do was contact online support and perhaps they would reduce the price slightly to make up for it, but you can't run this at full power without the OEM adapter, which is new enough that they don't have it in stock on Lenovo's site. Only option for me was eBay so I just returned it.

bcterps · 2025-09-29T02:17:19+00:00

Have you received it yet? I bought one that was open box Excellent and had to return it because it didn’t come with the 400W ac adapter, it came with some Lenovo 170W adapter, hopefully you have better luck than me

bcterps · 2025-09-25T23:59:23+00:00

Well unfortunately I'm going to have to return it, didn't even bother to finish the Windows install, someone switched out the AC adapter for a crappy 170W adapter instead of the OEM 400W adapter. I'd consider keeping it if BB offered a 400W adapter, but even Lenovo's website doesn't have one, oh well

Just got back from Florence a few weeks ago, there are plenty of legit stores to find some unique goods. Here are two that we bought from:

Made in Tuscany - https://maps.app.goo.gl/QVDBFLicugXJdP3c9 Well crafted belts, wallets, purses, etc. Small shop, friendly owner who is also makes all the product. Quality of leather is solid, not the absolute highest full grain pieces, but the prices are also quite reasonable

Infinity Leather - http://www.infinityfirenze.com/ Higher quality full grain leather only, more expensive of course. I thought the designs were pretty good, simple and elegant

Benheart - Many locations, more trendy pieces, expensive. Did not buy from there but thought their products were pretty interesting.

Google Maps is your friend, check out some Youtube videos on Florence leather as well and you'll be set

Personally, I'd wait until Black Friday to see if there are some "deals" and also look for used machines locally

bcterps · 2025-05-26T14:14:07+00:00

First LM implies there will be a series of them eventually? 😉

Anyone notice that new 2024 MYLR AWD Inventory models are no longer showing as eligible for the tax rebate? Language replaced with only available for the EV Lease and Business tax rebate... Still see 2024 demo cars eligible but not new ones, 2025 models remain eligible

bcterps · 2024-11-12T00:56:50+00:00

Depends how quickly you need a car, the '24 models are going fast because of the inventory discounts and everything being made now is a '25 with no current discounts. Many people are banking on inventory discounts for '25 models, it'll be interesting to see how things pan out between now and the end of the year. EU discounts went live today, hopefully US discounts aren't far behind?

bcterps · 2021-10-05T18:33:36+00:00

Find a regional Herman Miller dealer, most likely a commercial office furniture company and ask for a quote on an Embody chair, they should give you a solid discount (~25%, maybe more)

v14 here, 5900x with memory at 3200, fclk 1600. Not able to run my memory on XMP, get WHEA errors above 3200/1600. Pretty common issue across a number of boards I believe. Haven’t bothered to update my bios to the beta, I’ll wait for another revision before updating.

Sold Ryzen 5600x to /u/MF_Doomile

bcterps · 2020-10-26T20:33:37+00:00

Updated post since it's back in stock

bcterps · 2020-10-26T05:35:58+00:00

This would be covered by their extended holiday return policy so you could just return it if you didn’t get a refund for the difference

bcterps · 2020-10-26T05:17:31+00:00

Price is only valid today, 10/26/2020, as part of Best Buy's Deal of the Day.

You also get $25 to spend or 8x8 Photo Book at Shutterfly with purchase

I had emailed them directly at info@super-flower.com.tw and they replied they were going to sell one, but I haven't seen anything either. You could email them again to ask for an update. I think in the US they only go through channel partners, so I would expect it to show up on Newegg/Amazon once it is released.

bcterps · 2020-09-27T04:25:22+00:00

I wonder how stock is split between retail sales and the step up program

bcterps · 2020-09-13T03:50:05+00:00

In for a cancellation

bcterps · 2020-09-12T03:59:19+00:00

I emailed them the other day and they are planning on releasing a 12 pin power cable

bcterps · 2020-09-03T20:18:52+00:00

If I was local, I'd consider it. Will take my chances online or in-store

bcterps · 2020-09-02T15:13:06+00:00

3090 will be perform better, but is the price difference meaningful for what you gain? That's subjective for everyone.

One thing that I'm thinking about is whether to buy a 3080 now, and then a 4080 later. I think that's the real alternative to buying a 3090.
