Hi all!
I'm really excited about getting my very first gaming laptop! I've decided on the G752VT model already but I have a few questions. I know I can buy from ASUS directly but there is a reseller that is offering additional freebies at the same price. The reseller's company name is EXcaliberPC and the link to the bundle can be found here - http://www.excaliberpc.com/636906/asus-g752vt-dh72-17.3-g-sync-full.html
Also, this company is able to make modifications to the laptop. The website actually allows me to buy the lower end version of the G752VT, the G752VT-DH1 with the 965M GPU, and then they will swap out the 965M for a 970M (So technically it is the middle range G752VT-DH2 without the SSD).

All G752VT models come with the 970m and all G752VL models comes with the 965m, so expect EXcaliber is really selling different ASUS models and not making modifications to the GPU.
Wasn't able to find a G752VT-DH1 or G752VT-DH71 model on the EXcaliber website, but saw a G752VL-DH71 model with 965m, so guessing this is the model you saw.

Hi once again!
Thanks so much for all the advice and opinions you have posted, it's a huge weight off my mind to know that this reseller is safe. A little background if I may - I'm from Singapore and going to the US to do my graduate studies for the next 5-6 years. I'll be in the states for around 9 months and then back to Singapore for 3 months. I'm planning to buy this laptop when I get there in August, they have it here in Singapore too but it cost like $350USD more? So all this is pretty new to me and I want to get as much info from you guys as possible!
Oh yes I got a little confused about this. So the G752VT with the SSD is G752VT-DH72 while the one without the SSD is the G752VT-RH71 on their site. Does this mean that if I decide to not get the SSDs EXcaliberPC simply opens up a G752VT laptop and take out the SSDs?

As for the SSD, it is unlikely that Excalibur opens up to remove the SSD since it comes with a version specified by ASUS. My bet would be that particular model doesn't come with a SSD right from the factory. Either way, if its not present, or gets removed, you won't be having one in the end. SSDs have never been cheaper and I highly suggest to get one separately and fix it yourself rather than buying it with the notebook. They tend to be priced insanely expensive and it is much cheaper if you buy on your own.
