    I ordered one Asus Z70V from them about a year ago. They are very nice. I think they don't tax you if you are living outside of CA.

    I'm expecting my S96J to come in tomorrow, and I'm in British Columbia, Canada. No complaints so far- my various emails were answered within hours, and I talked to Ken several times on the phone.
    As for tax, they're in CA so I don't think you'll be charged tax unless you really really ask them to :p

    GentechPC is a great reseller of Asus products. I've never bought an item from them before and they still treat me like royalty!
    In fact, Ken over at GenTechPC is a steady presence over at (dare I say it) NotebookForums.... and he's also a member of NBR, but doesn't frequent these forums as much.

    Yeah, I would like to buy from them but I'm in BC, Canada so If I order I'll be paying more because of US exchange and customs fee. They got Z81SP (sold out) I love to own it one day and hook up to my 19"LCD :D

    I think the US dollar is very weak at the moment. You should check the exchange rates, then compare prices in the same currency. Also, since you're in Canada, doesn't the NAFTA eliminate those fees? Look into it, you might be surprised to find that the price differential is minimal.
