Written in the front: This article is the front of the M5510 Haitao boxing tutorial, experienced 9981 difficult this sea Amoy finally came to an end. This article does not start any relevant information on the M5510, the relevant details, please also pay attention to the recently released M5510 out of the box! The pictures and text are basically ready. I don't want to publish it in separate articles. However, due to the excessive number of texts, contents, and pictures, I decided to publish them in a separate article. Please also thank you for your understanding!
---------- The following is the text of this article ---------
Recently found a lot of classmates began to pay attention to the sea Amoy notebook
Various types of strategies emerge in endlessly, and there are various opinions in various situations.
As a reeling thread that the Yellow River did not give up, the Big Buddha decided to make a clean sweep.
On the one hand to lighten the wallet, on the one hand to explore
Some of the content of this article (such as the warranty) is limited to the DELL brand, but you can use your brains to apply to other brands, but not guaranteed
Also welcome everyone's attention to the next DELL M5510 mobile workstation out of the box
You will learn about the following in this article:
As we all know, DELL and APPLE, THINKPAD and other brands in addition to the new retail machine, there are official turning machine optional.
Relative to the new machine, the official turn has a huge price advantage.
In DELL, this problem becomes more complicated
DELL's machine officially defines four states, NEW, OUTLET NEW, Certified Refurbished, and Scratch & Dent.
New (NEW):
This is our most common retail brand new machine and the only one with a brand new retail package.
This kind of machine is 100% unused, generally there will be no quality problems. There are consumer protection and 3C protection in the new machine in the country, there are XX days Baotoutui XX days replacement service
However, the Bank of America machinery does not have such services. If it fails within a short time, it can only be repaired.
Therefore, the Amoy machine (except for aliens), most people will choose to unsubscribe and reverse
OUTLET NEW:
The unsubscribe machine can be said to be the best choice for Haitao. This kind of machine is a machine that is not used by the user and is left in the DELL warehouse for various reasons.
Although it is also a brand new machine, the unsubscription machine does not have retail luxury packaging. Instead, it uses the same simple kraft carton packaging as the official one.
There will be no traces of use! Including power and scratches!
And the price of the unsubscription machine is often the same as that of the official turning machine!
The warranty is usually 1NBD. Pay attention to the warranty start time when you purchase, because it will involve the renewal of the new machine within 90 days.
Unsubscribe machines are destined to be scarce resources. Even if EBAY is hard to find, don't miss out if you have the right configuration.
Certified Refurbished:
In the face of difficulty in obtaining a machine for canceling the book, most students have focused their attention on the official turnaround.
There is more stock for turning over machines, but this does not mean that you can get a properly configured machine on DELL OUTLET.
There are many businesses in the United States who are doing DELL business in EBAY. Once they have good products, they will be the first time to get in the bag. They do not even need to purchase this way through the website (they are DELL certified sellers).
The machines turned over are basically used, but there are generally no traces of usage.
But DELL does not guarantee that every one is without any traces (including scratches)
The turning machine is packaged in a simple kraft carton
The warranty is usually 1NBD. Pay attention to the warranty start time when you purchase, because it will involve the renewal of the new machine within 90 days.
Scratch & Dent
This kind of machine is generally not recommended for purchase, because there are more or less obvious signs of use, such as external scratches, keyboard wear, touch pad wear, etc., only to ensure that the screen is not injured.
Not only that, the source of this kind of machine may be the user's repair, after the minor repairs can not solve the problem and remain in the after-sales machine, after normal re-sale after a larger repair function
It is said that after DELL's after-sales service, it is possible to see that this kind of machine has special standards for rework, so after returning home, it is impossible to renew the insurance, but I cannot verify it myself.
Unless you are full of confidence in your craft and RP, please avoid this type of machine.
When you decide to buy a laptop, especially when it comes to high-end models, be sure to consider the economics of Haitao.
Take the M5510 I purchased as an example. The same model is configured to sell at 18999RMB in the country, and the purchase of the official from the United States is only 1215USD (7950RMB at the time). The difference is self-evident.
Determined the sea Amoy Road, then to study the purchase channel!
Brand new machine:
DELL United States official mall, Microsoft USA Mall, EBAY and other channels
Buying a brand new machine from the United States is a very reliable matter. If you just don't want to be slaughtered by domestic prices, and you are not so sensitive to prices, you can buy a brand new machine completely.
The first choice here is, of course, DELL America Mall. Register your own account with DELL, and use this account to purchase. The machine's ownership and warranty are directly in your name, eliminating the need for ownership transfer.
Official malls often launch promotions, and if you are not afraid to contact customer service to see if you can get discounted codes and the like, pay more attention to the official website information and Auntie, always encounter cost-effective buying opportunities.
The Microsoft Mall often launches promotional activities. The previous activities are very powerful and can focus on
EBAY was put at the end. We are also buying the new machine in the country mainly in the official website, Tmall, Jingdong, few people will choose Taobao private shop, right? And the EBAY cohabitation, the money to buy a brand new machine is out, not bad this difference, right?
Unsubscribe, turn over, take the opportunity:
DELL OUTLET official store, EBAY
Natural choice is also DELL OUTLET, but less helpless traffickers more machines, plus the degree of friendship is not high on the national card (such as cutting a single message is not uncommon), starting relatively difficult.
To sum up, one of the necessary skills to buy an official turning machine is how to identify the extent of an EBAY business so as to buy a reliable machine.
EBAY can be understood as the international version of Taobao, but because of the lack of similar Alipay funds supervision links (after the payment is directly into the seller's account, there is no intermediate stay), once the dispute depends on the conscience of both parties (of course, can also be opened by EBAY or PAYPAL CASE, but still more troublesome, and can not guarantee the processing result)
What kind of store is reliable?
First look at his rating and whether it is a gold seller. If only one hundred evaluations persuade the king to think twice, it is as if you are not at Taobao. You will not buy one thing in the mind of a buyer.
If his rating is above 2,000 (best of 5,000) and is a gold seller (big right gold medal), then we start to look at his recent evaluation.
Like Taobao, EBAY also has three kinds of evaluations of good and bad, mainly in the poor assessment, not more than 10 bad reviews in the near future, and then look at what these bad reviews have written.
can not speak English? There are two ways here, one is the earth method, one copy pastes to GOOGLE or Baidu translation...
If you are as lazy as I am, you can install the Web Translation Plugin directly in Maxthon Browser. All pages of a page will be translated into Chinese. My mother will no longer be afraid of my English.
If you see particularly bad reviews, such as the machine is not to ignore the customer service, the machine is a bad part has been replaced, decisive PASS selected the next one.
At this point, we can finish what we can do, and the rest is fate...
At the same time pay attention to the payment requirements of the shop. There are many unwinding machines that fall in love at first sight and can not complete the payment due to exhaustion. It is because the seller only supports PAYPAL account payments in the United States, and the accounts we set up through PAYPAL in China and Hong Kong are international accounts. , so basically no chance (of course I also have the experience of registering the United States PAYPAL, a full set of successful registration, but finally gave up, after all, the information used in addition to the card and the name are all forged, once the transaction dispute can not guarantee the support of PAYPAL and EBAY, The specific steps I will write at the end, but still say that this is the next step, not to use.)
Finally, the newly registered PAYPAL and EBAY have to carry out a number of certifications in order to be able to use them smoothly, especially when buying large quantities of goods. At present, the seller’s credit card certification is also required (unexpectedly, right? This is the EBAY customer service told me...). That is, a total of two verifications are required . One deduction of one US dollar (tied card certification) and one deduction of US$10 (vendor certification) are pre-authorizations that do not actually incur costs. At the same time, during the use of PAYPAL do not switch the network environment (VPN), IP short-distance jump will be identified as a hacking number by PAYPAL risk control, the account will be locked, but there will be no prompt ... Any payment problem encountered please Consult PAYPAL and EBAY's Chinese customer service (PAYPAL China has telephone customer service, EBAY Hong Kong has online live chat, are very convenient), they will give detailed reasons and professional processing methods!
3. What kind of channels are used to transport back to China? First, the transfer of postal channels is recommended here, which is the so-called postal service.
Why use mail instead of commercial declaration?
The advantages of postal service are mainly the following:
1. In most cities, the customs duty is collected according to the amount of tax paid. At present, laptops are valued at 2,000 yuan on the Customs Duty List, and the tax rate is 15%, which means that the tax receivable is 300 yuan. If your laptop is of high value, This saves considerable tax expenditures. The commercial declaration is based on your declared price, and the declared price is linked to transportation insurance. After the tax reform, the major transshipments have responded to the maliciously reported low value. ,Think twice.
2. The customs inspection of the postal service is a spot check, that is to say, there is a chance of personality outbreak. Of course, after the tax reform, both customs and postal services increased the screening of high-value items. The large-volume, high-value items such as laptops will be sent directly to the customs for inspection by the postal service.
3. The customs clearance and customs clearance are reliable and time-limited. Generally speaking, the time limit of large cities is less than 3 working days. Commercial customs declaration depends on the customs' real-time conditions and the public relations of customs clearance companies. It often produces huge pits. If a notebook with nearly ten thousand yuan falls into the pit, it can be It's sad...
The channel I use is to transport the Quartet’s ISS route. This line was sent from the United States and served by Singapore Post. It can be traced from Singapore Post throughout the entire period. It is highly effective for both timeliness and security. At the same time, the transfer of Quartet and EBAY during the year carried out the first KG-free shipping activities, which is very suitable for notebook transfers.
I personally do not think that the transfer of another Chinese line used by many friends is the first choice. Although there is a tax deduction for premiums, the taxes on high-value notebooks are still not to be discounted, and the timeliness of customs clearance is not comparable to that of postal services. It is recommended for notebooks up to 5,000 yuan.
Other transhipments will not go into details. Most of them are commercial declarations and there are no tax concessions.
Individual small transhipment has a service such as a laptop compulsory insurance package of 200 yuan, but at least I'm afraid to use...
4. N poses about paying taxesThat’s right, I’m not expecting a tax
Since the tax reform, the Customs seem to have intensified inspections. At present, friends who know four Amoy notebooks are taxed without exception...
The current tax payment method is:
1. Notice to the Customs Hall to pay taxes. This is the most troublesome, and it's also a waste of time while hurting the wallet, but it's less of a problem now with clear, compliant emails. (Generally, goods that are out of the scope of their own use or that are not on the customs list will be shouted to the customs for education.)
2. SMS inform Alipay to pay taxes. This is now a relatively common tax payment method in Beijing. It received a text message to inform the e-mail that it was taxed, demanded payment of taxes to Alipay accounts, remarks of names and mail numbers. Beijing local 1 yuan agency fees, foreign 50 yuan agency fees.
3. SMS notification to the street post office for tax payment. This is the new posture I encountered this time... A 183 personal number sent a text message saying that I had an email taxed at 300 yuan. Please go to the XX post office to collect the payment and have the full address... I thought it was a liar. After calling the postal telephone service, the customer service indicated that this situation was certain... so he went to the post office (actually the EMS team), met my package, paid the money and left...
If your e-mail has been submitted to the customs office for more than 5 working days and there are no details below, please be sure to submit an e-mail to verify the current status of the e-mail, and go to the local customs website to enter the e-mail number to inquire about the relevant tax payment information. In some special circumstances, the recipient did not receive the tax payment information. Because the mail was sent back and timed out and returned directly, there was no place to cry.
Yes, I have encountered such an embarrassing situation... The reason is that handcuffs have ordered a photo service, and the warehouse brother has a lot of scratches on the A surface... (A face and the table were rubbing when D face was shot... )
The machine received a loud slap in the box until I removed the machine and I was forced...
Why is it that the photo of the warehouse is as bright as new ones?
Stock chart
Depressed after an hour of decisive analysis of the problem: when the warehouse brother took pictures ...
Immediately contact the four-party customer service with a work order for compensation
The following materials need to be prepared here:
1. Positive and negative ID card
2. Picture of damaged item
3. Shiny as new pictures when entering the warehouse
4. Reasonable, polite but powerful text
Customer service MM gave feedback on the second day, acknowledging that it was due to a warehouse failure and gave their compensation plan: 5% of the declared value, less than 400 yuan in compensation
So I began to look for maintenance solutions, on the one hand to consider how to repair, on the one hand, reference to repair costs.
It is a matter of course that you have a loss claim, but you can't open your mouth to the Lions. On the one hand, it reflects quality. On the other hand, you have too much to transfer.
DELL official replaced cover PASS out, too expensive (A side and the screen is one, equal to change screen, the official price in 1500 +)
Taobao has provided an exchange service to send a lightly damaged but non-destructive top cover for a new cover assembly, the price is 500, but the warranty may be lost (the part number does not match)
I provided the Quartet with the prices of various maintenance plans, as well as screenshots, and explained my own wishes, hoping to raise the compensation to 500 yuan.
The Quartet agreed very well to this plan and promised to pay Alipay within 5 working days...
This matter came to an end...
This incident gave me two enlightenments:
1. Nothing else to choose photo service...
2. When reporting, it must be reported truthfully. Items that have high prices in the customs post must go through the postal customs...
Actually, this matter was originally unknown to me...
But when I get a computer and I feel it shaking, there's a noise inside... Intuitively telling me it's definitely not normal...
Deterrence Taobao bought a set of digital products of the South flag screwdriver group, to remove the D side to find out
Don't know if you don't know if you don't know how to start a jump... Say a good 6CALL battery becomes 3CALL, say a good PCIE SSD becomes a SATA3 SSD
The noise is not someone else, is this piece of SSD, the two sides of the shockproof rubber strip is not installed, 2MM's quanlity, flashing jingle...
Correct posture
Just in the transformation of the mirror headlights in the home, an insulating nylon tube was inserted into the gap and the world was clean...
I think there is something wrong with it. Regardless of the configuration, how can DELL get such a low-level assembly error? If you accidentally move your computer, there will be an abnormal noise. How does the computer leave the factory? Or black heart business for accessories?
Here is a small trick, you register this machine in your DELL account, you can view the various status of this machine, in addition to the warranty status, you can also see the factory configuration of this machine
After comparing the factory configuration and the configuration in my hand is exactly the same... including battery and SSD...
However, this does not relieve the merchant of the responsibility of reporting the configuration. The machine I received does not match the vendor’s stated configuration.
Immediately write to the business to ask why, with the purchase of the product details screenshots and real shot pictures.
Note here, do not hurry to open the CASE to find the problem, first leave a message to the seller in an ordinary way, explain the situation, such as the attitude of the seller is outrageous and then apply for EBAY intervention. Remember that all communication between EBAY and the seller is via EBAY's message system. Whether the seller provides an email or not, a messaging system is used. Such messages can be used as evidence for future disputes. Your private and sellers' emails may not be exchanged. As evidence...
The merchants quickly responded by saying that the machine was issued by DELL and they had issued it without a second verification. This situation is likely to occur and the company agreed to pay US$35.
The SSD installed in the machine is the SM871. This model is an industry model and there is almost no data in the country. After various verifications and tests, this SSD is actually an industry version of the Samsung 850PRO. Compared with the PCIE SSD PM951, which is now widely used by DELL, it is not a loss.
However, this battery will be resentful... No way to agree that compensation has been paid and it has been...
7. How to transfer insurance after returning home?Transferring insurance and renewal insurance have always been the topic of Haitao’s frequent discussions
The first thing to say is that the new, unsubscribe, and revamped machines in the United States all come with an NBD (next business day on-site service) warranty, which can be transferred to China within 15 working days through the transfer of ownership. Is China's official recognition of the warranty (DELL sales science, as long as the NBD can be UNPROFOR), and can be renewal of the normal channels.
If you want to renewal or upgrade the warranty in China, just fill in the application directly on the official website. One or two days later, there will be one to one customer service phone contact and provide a quote.
It is worth mentioning that choosing an upgrade and renewal of the warranty does not require a separate warranty transfer. This operation will be carried out with the renewal of the warranty.
If you do not choose renewal, please use this link for warranty and transfer of ownership:
DELL's common warranty is divided into two categories, one is called NBD and the other is called CC.
Now that they have a new name, NBD is renamed Onsite Service After Remote Diagnosis and CC is renamed Accidental Damage .
NBD is the next business day home repair service, computer failure, through the warranty declaration, the next working day there will be engineer home repair, only the machine itself failure
CC is all-round protection provided on the basis of NBD, including accidental damage such as drop, water, power surge, etc. It will get warranty service, and each machine has one damage and can not repair the direct replacement service.
As the saying goes, buying DELL is buying service, buying service is buying CC. Therefore, it is recommended that if you continue to choose the CC service as much as possible, give the machine more protection.
DELL has graded its models on the warranty and is divided into ordinary laptops - XPS-workstations - aliens, different sizes and different warranty prices ... ...
The renewal price is also from low to high...
Taking the XPS15 as an example, upgrade to 2NBD to 400, 3NBD to 600, upgrade to 1CC to 250, and 2CC to 800
M5510 is expensive, upgrade to 2NBD to 800, 3NBD to 1400, upgrade to 1CC to 250, 2CC to 1250
Aliens are renewal peaks, Taobao price NBD 1800 two years, 2500 three years, CC 650 one year ... ... official price is taken off directly ... so buy aliens and think about renewal before thinking ... ... first count Good warranty costs and then start ... and the alien's warranty strategy and DELL other machines are different, the specific can not do professional answer ... ...
The above is all the experience and experience gained from this Haitao notebook. If there are other questions, please feel free to leave a message and I will do my best to answer everyone's questions. Welcome everyone to leave us a lot of messages!
