Answer 1 :
Your friend has to declare a value on the laptop. This is important for claims in case of non-delivery or due to damage during transit. Based on the value, GST will be levied. There is no GST if the value is low..
Answer 2 :
why spend money on a laptop when you can get it for free? just go to this site and complete a few quick tasks and they'll send you a sony vaio laptop at no charge!

Answer 1 :
Probably not. The reason these big companies sell them in different locations is because the warranty requirements and laws vary widely from country to country. I would imagine that warranty information is readily available on the HP website.
Answer 2 :
its fine but i wouldnt count on it as u mentioned India
Answer 3 :
all laptops come with an international warranty from best buy, just throw in 30 dollars.

Answer 2 :
Our oldest son lives and works in London UK and overseas postage is atrocious and very expensive. If I were in your shoes, I believe your best bet would be to buying from a USA major supplier...hopefully like Dell Outlet though I can foresee your problems bec some Sellers unless you bought on EBAY and then paid via PayPal might not accept foreign currency... Actually I own 3 Dell Notebook PCs and I was surprised that there is a EBAY Seller here in Northern VA around Washington DC that sells top rated Dells and many Brits and Europeans actually pay the inflated price plus hefty S&H. Another choice is maybe if your child has credit card is to use that credit card number <= assume you are paying or to ask the host family to assist you if it isn't too much trouble. Depending on where in USA your child is located, I may be even willing to help out and provide some assistance, and you could provide me more details via emails. Best of Luck and Cheers! David I'm Back and Happen to Think that: one large & reputable online store that I have used in the past that might solve everything regarding a USA buy and delivery, and accepting foreign currency is {www.newgg.com}
Answer 3 :
Get it from eBay United Kingdom (yeslaptops.com/ebay-unitedkingdom) and have it delivered to USA.
