Seller has shipped it! Got the tracking details. Though I also got a message saying automatic refund has been initiated, after which it gave me a tracking number.
The GL552JX was released very recently so I doubt if it can be a refurb. It costs ~ Rs.53K (if bought directly from Thailand/ Vietnam). The dealer has stated that it's a factory sealed piece. As you said, we can very well use the ebay paisa pay protection guarantee against the seller if it's not as per what he suggested. ...
I am also looking for a laptop with similar specs.
How do you make out whether the delivered piece is refurbished or new ? Is there a way to
check on the vendor's site or somethig ?
Once you guys get your machines, some pics are in order.. esp of the area above the keyboard.
And, PLS use thumbnails!
Yep! Will do. Though mine seem to stuck in Delhi Rama Road Hub!+1.. Also a small review of Screen Quality and Battery life.

Show-off thread created. Warning: Mouse and Bag was taken out from the so-called sealed package by the seller. Pack was sealed by the eBay sticker though.
A few marks were present on the screws of the rear service cover. Clearly the cover was opened but it still had the same 1TB HDD by HGST and 4GB DDR3L 1600Mhz RAM by SKHynx.
Not at all. It's brand new. Someone must've checked it as far as I can tell.Refurbished?

Hi,
new stock will come with mouse and bag also and will be listed on ebay but the prices will be around 4 to 5000 Rupees higher.
I asked the seller and he had mentioned that the display was IPS and not TN. And no mouse eh?
It seems GL552 comes with two (or is it 3 ? ) display options HD and FHD.
From http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/GL552JX/specifications/
15.6" 16:9 HD (1366x768)/Full HD (1920x1080)/IPS FHD (1920x1080) anti-glare
ebay listing mentions only the screen size ..
From the ebay listing,
DISPLAY : 15.6" LED Back-lit Slim 200nits Full HD 1920x1080 16:9 Anti Glare Display
3 options. I messaged the seller over this particular model and I was told Full HD IPS is the display... But aman says its not... Its only Full HD TN :/
