Recently bought an Attack Shark R2 mouse for 9500 and an Attack Shark X68 HE for 11500(now priced at 9500) from SHEIN. Both have really good quality. The mouse pad was bad, but it only cost 650, while people here sell similar ones for 1000–1500

Mice and keyboards are also pretty cheap on Shein compared to Pakistan, and you can get even more discounts using points. like, you can easily get the Attack Shark X11 there for around 4700, and whatever points you have can give you an additional discount

I bought this laptop 4 days ago, and yesterday I noticed a small gap between the screen/bezel and the plastic at both bottom corners. Is this normal for this model, or is there something wrong with my unit? If you have the same laptop, could you please check yours and let me know?

I have been researching gaming laptops for the past month. However, the more I learn about the Pakistani laptop market, the less confident I feel about purchasing anything from here.

The first major issue is warranty. Most sellers advertise a “one-year international warranty,” but in reality, it often seems to be a warranty in name only. There is no clear guarantee that you will receive proper support if something goes wrong. The only reliable way I found to check whether a laptop is actually new is by verifying its serial number on the manufacturer website. I asked several stores to provide the serial numbers before purchase. Some ignored them completely.

The stores that did provide serial numbers raised even more concerns. One laptop warranty had already been activated 8 months ago, while another had been active for around 4 months. Despite this, both were still being sold as brand-new laptops with a one-year international warranty. When I questioned the sellers, they claimed that laptops are opened and activated in the USA, China, or Korea before being imported to Pakistan. This is the explanation I received.

But this creates an obvious problem for the customer. How are we supposed to know whether the laptop was only opened for activation (and why they opened it?), used as a display unit, returned by another customer, refurbished, or previously used for several months? These laptops are already more expensive than their prices in the USA, yet buyers receive almost no real security. There is no reliable way to confirm the laptop’s history, and the advertised warranty may already have lost several months before the customer even purchases it.

At this point, I genuinely do not know where a person should buy from. Paying such a large amount without proper warranty protection or certainty that the laptop is actually new feels like a huge risk.

Has anyone here deal with this situation? I would really appreciate guidance on trusted sellers, serial-number verification, warranty claims, and what precautions a buyer should take before making the payment.
