Do we have to wait for BOXING DAY for a good deal? Laptop Gaming

I'm looking for a while for a laptop gaming, but the prices has never changed.

So, what about boxing day ? Should i wait for this day ?
Someone could give me advice for website or chain stores here in Australia with a good prices (QLD - Brisbane) ?

    Depends what brand. Dell has XPS and Alienware laptops on their eBay store, currently 20% off with the Tech Frenzy sale + 3% via Cashrewards.

  • Alienware is still expensive. Maybe Metabox or MSI it would be more suitable for me. :/

    You can always go second hand if you don't want the absolute latest and greatest.

    MSI: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MSI-GS-Series-GS70-STEALTH-Gaming…

    Dell: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dell-Alienware-15-Core-i7-4710HQ-…

    Just some quick examples from eBay. Gaming laptops lose value pretty quickly so others loss can be your gain if you don't mind it not being brand spanking new.

    What level of gaming did you have in mind? Got a minimum GPU/framerate/resolution that you're willing to accept?

    • A good one!
      Usually, I look for I7, 16ram, ssd + hdd, 3-4gigas video.

      I was just wondering, if it will be on "special" sale on Boxing Day. That's what i mean, with a really good price or
      i shouldn't expect something about it ?

      • Okay, you're looking at dedicated gaming laptops then. Dedicated gaming laptops are a niche market that's already highly competitive. I would suggest you're not going to see any heavy discounts unless a model is discontinued or superseded.

        Honestly, I think Boxing Day pricing has been unremarkable for a few years now. I wouldn't expect any wonderful bargains then. I think Black Friday / Cyber Monday sales are usually the best discounts you'll see all year. So you've probably missed that boat, if there were any bargains to be had.

  • Have a look at Origin laptops, also Asus have some high performance laptops

  • Still waiting for the Alienware Alphas to go back on sale. Who reckons they will on Boxing Day or am I SOOL?
