My order for G751 was voided from Newegg.. Is this a bad sign?

So, I ordered an Asus G751 JT-CH71 on Newegg, and few hours later.. it got voided without giving me any reason.

Now.. the reason why I brought up this "bad sign" thing is because I usually have bad luck when buying new machines..
Around half a year ago, I bought an Asus G750 JS-TS71 from TigerDirect, and man.. I had nightmares with it:
-Buzzing noises coming from the notebook
-Defective gaps between creases.
-More info can be found in my old posts.
*This is just one example*

It's a pretty expensive item, and I do NOT want to go through the hassle of contacting customer support. All I want is an order with minimal flaws and defects with my machine once I open the box, and just enjoy using it. Is this too much to ask for?

I replaced my order with Newegg.., but now I'm having second thoughts of canceling it.

Did you guys have any problems ordering from Newegg? Should I just go with it? Or save myself from stress of the possibility that my item might be defective or have certain flaws?

I had a flawless experience ordering my 751JT from NewEgg. Everything works just fine. No hardware issues at all.

Yes, it's a bad sign. You should probably buy a Mac. :cool:

I also ordered G751JT CH71 from Newegg and machine works well. I did buy a Samsung 850 EVO SSD to replace 1 gig HDD.

I ordered mine through Newegg and have had no problems with it. I know that reading these forums can make it seem like these laptops are seriously flawed, but I don't think the forum is a fair representation of all owners. Most of the people that come here are the ones with the problems and are looking for support. And, unless you live somewhere that makes returning your online order difficult, I don't see what there is to lose. If you do happen to get a defective unit you could just return it or exchange it. I have thoroughly enjoyed my laptop and have no regrets thus far (purchased the last week of November).

Exactly - mine was open box from NewEgg and it's pretty much flawless. The one issue (IPS light bleed) is not an issue for me. It's an incredible gaming laptop. The best, in my opinion...for the $$$ and spec.

Well if you order was voided I would just jump on Amazon they have 30 return policy and good prices too. They also do not hide the system spec.
s there all there for you to see exactly what you are buying.
If your looking for good luck I suggest you by from a custom dealer pay the extra money to get exactly what you want with the CPU And GPU hand pasted and have it thoroughly tested. They charge for these services but its your best bet to for sure get a good one.
In reality there aren't that many bad ones out there as you see here of the thousands of units sold we get a few people here that have problems.
I have a Guy here on my project with a G74 he has had for 5 years and still no issues and uses it every day.
