    I'm buying an MSI GS 60 Ghost on Xotic PC, and wondering whether getting their "White Glove Packaging" is a good idea. They are based on Nebraska and I am in MA.

    I'm wondering if it's a good idea or stupid to not use it because:
    • Don't most laptops ship just fine in standard packaging?
    • Don't Xotic PC get their laptops shipped to them in standard packaging?

    The order ($2100):
    15.6" FHD Matte
    Intel® i7-5700HQ
    NVIDIA® GTX 970M [3GB]
    Up to 16GB RAM
    128GB M.2 SSD + 1TB Samsung 850 Evo SSD (they replace the HDD)

    You should be fine with the standard packaging. The white glove is nice, but we see it used more for international or military address's. It wont hurt to get it though :)
