    I'm sorry if this was posted already or if i'm not posting in the right spot but maybe someone could help a bit out.
    I'm looking for a trustworthy MSI Reseller in the USA with a good service and that also guarantees me the lowest price at the date of purchase. I understant that it's hard to guarantee that after the date of purchase because all the time there are some deals but maybe it's possible for at least the date of purchase.
    I'm very interested in buying a MSI GT70 ONC or OND with the basic 12GB Ram,750GB HDD and DVD-Writer. So the basic configurations.
    I've looked at Gentech PC, XoticPC, Powernotebooks,Pro-Star etc. but all of them are 80-100$ more expensive than Tigerdirect's price ( MSI GT70 0NC-008US 9S7-176212-008 Notebook PC - 3rd generation Intel Core i7-3610QM 2.3GHz, 12GB DDR3, 750GB HDD, DVDRW, 3GB NVIDIA GTX 670M, 17.3 Full HD, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit at TigerDirect.com and MSI GT70 0ND-202US 9S7-176212-202 Notebook PC - 3rd generation Intel Core i7-3610QM 2.3GHz, 12GB DDR3, 750GB HDD, DVDRW, 2GB NVIDIA GTX 675M, 17.3 Full HD, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit at TigerDirect.com ). And this without counting the Mail-in-Rebate.
    So why don't i buy directly from Tigerdirect you might ask.
    Well i heard a lot about the great service that these resellers offer, so i'm very interested in buying my Laptop for one of them. This is also very important for me because a friend will buy the Laptop from me and i don't want to have a dead on arrivel Laptop. In another country it will be very hard to get the Laptop exchanged for another one. Also i heard about a lot of faulty MSI-keyboards so wanted to ask the reseller to maybe check this before sending the Laptop.
    If someone could give me a good advice, i would really appreciate it.

    PS: Normally i wouldn't care about the extra 100$ but right now i'm very low on budget and this extra 100$ are the difference between a 670m and a 675m.

    PS2: Sorry if i've made some mistakes in English but it's not my native language. :D
