That's what I was referring too, but Gtb explained it before me
If you purchase from Ebay.com, you'll have to go through hassles of shipping and custom, but if you make a purchase from ebay.in global deals section, its completely hassle free and all inclusive.
Here's another new launch, just came today too. And Razer recommends it :

From Razer's facebook page :
"If you frequent my page, you'll see that I often recommend other gaming brands like Alienware, because I believe our mission here at Razer is to evangelize PC gaming, not just our own brand and products.
At Razer, we don't design to a budget/price point, but for a very discerning group of users who appreciate the best in technology and design. It's like designing for Ferrari/Lamborghini/Bugatti vs a Ford or a Toyota. While we'll want to bring price points down, our first priority is always the best tech and design vs price.
However, there are always alternatives for PC gamers on a smaller budget.
For example, Taiwanese brand MSI just announced their 14" gaming laptop, and while I'm not a big fan of the build quality of their laptops, it's a cheaper alternative to the Blade.
While the MSI 14" laptop has:
- Less performance to the new Razer Blade (GTX 760M vs the Blade's GTX765M)
- Double the weight and thickness of the new Razer Blade (thickness: 1.18" vs 0.66"/weight 9.1lbs vs 4lbs")
It's probably going to be a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Blade and will present a good option for PC gamers who want something cheaper but are fine with something thick/heavy. I haven't seen it myself but I'll assume it's a plastic chassis with some metal finishes vs an all aluminum chassis like the Blade.
My vision is to bring PC gaming to as many gamers out there - and it's not just with Razer but with Alienware, Origin, MSI, etc and all the other companies that bring more choice to PC gamers out there.
So it's really a matter of choice, if you want something powerful and thin, we're probably the only company in the world designing stuff like that for gamers. But if you're on a budget and you're fine with thick and heavy - there are some great options too!"
