But it has never been in the backpack, I don't dare to do that cause I know it will just get worse.

You shouldn't need to recover it, a product should at least live to the end of it's warranty period before literally falling apart!

But why even have warranty if you just DIY...
Haha, yup, that's ASUS support for you! Originally Posted by me29011993

I repeat: RIDICOULOUS!!! Originally Posted by Gorman

That's crazy! They seem to imply that they have a list of faults that they are willing to fix - or at the least they have a list of faults that they refuse to fix!
I think 'ridiculous' is definitely the best choice of words!

My G74 has been stuffed in and out of my G73 backpack (which is a very tight fit for a G74) nearly daily since I got the beast in October last year, and the rubber coating is still immaculate. I would look hard at how you are using it for other sources of unusually high wear.

Dude, I will never abuse a notebook that had cost me more than 1700 euros. I have always taken good care of it. If you knew me you would know i would.

So Asus contacted me again, saying that they will not repair it under waranty (so 2 years of waranty is actually like 10-11 months since my laptop is I think from september 2011) but I can send him to them but it will not be free.
So f*** it, I'm going to Carbon rap the thing, unless I can sell it. Haha, Viva la Asus, and their awesome service (sarcastic for those who didn't get it)

Did they give an excuse for refusing to honor their warranty? Or did they just flat out say "no"?
Carbon wrap sounds sexy as **** though. Perhaps a consider sandblast? Might be nice. If you are feeling adventurous then Japanese syle lacquer would be super sexy.
