Sending a laptop to Australia

[dallen52]

I returned to Thailand last week and my laptop has died, under warranty. 

 

The Thailand post office will not accept for return due to embargo on electronic goods and international freight. 

 

Looking for a solution to get this to Sydney before June 21st.

My location is Nangrong.

You could try DFS or FedEx, take an extra arm and leg along.

You may have to take the battery out, if not, it will be extra.

June 21 sounds fairly unrealistic to me, perhaps having it looked at locally is your most practical option.

Or DHL, or UPS. 

 

I agree except for the part about it maybe too late.   Couriers to Australia from Thailand only take two or three days, 10 days from now.

Has OP checked to see if the warranty repairs can actually be done in Thailand?

A number of years ago I had a Gateway laptop I had bought in the US and brought to Thailand.  It had a one year warranty.

Eleven months in, the HD crashed.  I took it to a repair shop at Fortune Tower, Bangkok (Pro-corner)

Two thousand++ quote for repair but he suggested I first take it to the Acer Service Center which was on the same floor.  He told me Acer had bought Gateway and did their service and that they might repair it for free. 

I was skeptical but I went to Acer anyway. The attendant looked-up my serial number and "Taa-Daa" I was able to return next day and pick up my laptop, new HD installed free, under warranty.

Check to see what is the problems and if the it is minor try to fix it here rather than to go through shipping and customs and not having your laptops for months maybe...
