Buying laptop from ibhejo.com

[powerhoney]

Hey, guys... Am thinking about buying the following laptop from ibhejo.com...
Lenovo IdeaPad Y510p Laptop (2.40GHz 1600MHz 6MB, 8 GB, 1 TB, Windows 8 64 bit) - Black | iBhejo.com
Please tell me anything and everything that I should know about buying internationally...
My queries are:
1. What customs/octroi/taxes will I be charged?
2. Is the website reliable?
3. How long do they take to deliver?
4. What power adapter will I have to buy?
Please inform me anything else that I should know about shopping internationally since I am a complete noob in this aspect.

1. Afaik, the price includes everything.
2. Yes, it is.
3. as mentioned, 10-15 days, so keep about 20-22 days.

Okay... Btw, its stated that Octroi charges will be extra... Guys, is this deal good or would you suggest some other deal?
P.S.: I googled octroi and found that it's charged only in Maharashtra. Is that true? Is octroi charged in Assam?

 

[Gtb93]

It isn't charged in Assam.

 

[powerhoney]

Thanks... Btw, do you think I should go ahead with the deal?

One thing I'll like to point out is that it's not written whether the screen is FullHD in the link I mentioned above. Am confused between ordering from iBhejo.com and Ishopinternational.

I'd suggest you to wait unless it's very urgent. Let a few haswell models release here in India.

Dell should refresh its line up within 1-2 months

It really is kinda urgent. Btw, will the model mentioned above have warranty in India? I mean does it have international warranty?

Don't buy from ibhejo..

You can import yourselves with borderlinx.com ... I have got nexus 7 that way.(it has international warranty).

Octroi charges are very high.try getting to a place where there is no octroi,if possible.

Buy only if you don't care about warranty.

Why no ibhejo.com???
I was just about to place the order...
Could you tell me the differences between ibhejo.com and borderlinx???
No octroi charges to my state (Assam) and warranty is near about non-existent here too!!!

Okay... Let me check... Btw, how will I order from the US Lenovo site since they accept transactions in US dollars???

 

[deadzone]

For that you need a visa or MasterCard credit card....transaction will be automatically taken care of...

I bought nexus 7 for 22k from b&h.com and it arrived 10 days after to my home in Delhi.

Borderlinx will take care of custom duty charges.No surprises when then product comes home.This is tested method by me.Trust me

 

[powerhoney]

Okay... Will order from borderlinx today or tomorrow!!!
Btw, can you help me with the following page:
