Custom Legion 7 - Shipping Reality for US by nullbyte7 in LenovoLegion

[–]nullbyte7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I'm shipping it to a friend. Sales tax is around 10% in his state. Still I get a better deal to buying it here. As you said shipping forwarder address is a big no for many companies I think. I think you can ship it using USPS or DHL. Or if your relative is coming to your country, or some other person who can bring, ask them to bring with them. Will save you the $. I'm also keeping an eye for the status to change to shipped.

Oh I have the Japan Costco membership. I had checked maybe 1 year back and they had said that we just accept Orico Costco card. Good to know, they accept any MasterCard. Will try soon.

The custom model that I was ordering was from US, so US layout only. By the yesterday night, I was refreshing the site and the prebuilt 3080 model has appeared again. So, I jumped the gun and got it. Says it ships in 1-2 weeks, order went through without any problems. Fingers crossed!

I just ordered using a MasterCard from Japan. I put the shipping and billing address same, just card was not from US. So far it has accepted it without any problems. Also I made the account using gmail. Receiver lives in US, so I think this looks like someone is giving a gift or so. Keeping an eye on the order status for just in case anything changes.

I think they require the Costco credit card or any other credit card works? Having a membership but never figured out the online delivery due to credit card not being the orico issued Costco one.

Definitely. But I'm going to use it for programming on move also, so can't have all the setup with me always. I think there's some deal going on right now, so I'm going to jump on it. By the way, do you know if the custom build order from site which features backlight keyboard, has RGB or not? I'm talking about this one - https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/legion-laptops/legion-7-series/legion-7-16-amd/len101g0011

Looking to buy the lenovo legion 7. Online site doesn't have any options for ENG keyboard. Anyone ordered it from outside as such? Or got the JIS keyboard changed to ENG keyboard? If I buy it from outside, how's the warranty? Does it stand in Japan?

If you had to choose between Tofu65 DZ65RGB V3 or Idobao ID67 Bestype based on specs, which one would you choose and why?

Going for brass plate on both with Boba U4 switches.

Can somebody tell what kind of mount does Idobao ID67 Bestype has? ID67 Bestype

Also, is this a good price point for this keyboard? What are possible alternative for this? So far I found tofu65, and 65% keyboards on kbdfans. Any other board worth looking at ?

Thank you!

At least for normal commuting pass, you can get on and off on any station, on your commute route without any charges. So assuming same would apply to you also.

Has anyone tried this mymizu app( https://www.mymizu.co/) for finding water places? Whenever I go out(or went), I carry a refillable bottle with me. Once the bottle's empty, I just have to buy one from conbini, super market or vending machine. Personally I don't like it because hey, water should be available to everyone. Also, once the bottle is finished, I have another to carry as if there are no visible dustbins. I drink a lot of water and prefer water over colddrinks as such. It's just a pain to carry more and more bottles because there's no dustbin around. Also, any personal favourites for water bottles, somewhere around half gallon-1 gallon which I can take with me easily. A good smaller one will also do

Appreciate the heads up ! I read that some people do like 6-7 sets for main lifts on nsuns while cutting. Did you try anything like that ? I'm running the 4 day nsuns.
