<br /> I have just purchased a HP pavilion laptop from indiaprice.net, the laptop is working fine and I have not faced any issue, but after checking many website I found that there is a huge price<br /> difference when we compared it with the HP official website www.shopping.hp.com, and the website where I have purchased the laptop http://indiaprice.net/laptop?laptop_brand=6 , I have checked on<br /> many HP laptops and found that the manufacturing unit of HP is in China, so I think the price should be equal in every country, apart from this if you checked the official HP website you will found<br /> that there is a configuration difference also. I am shocked to see that. I think this is not a fair thing, HP should sell their product on equal price with same configuration.<br /> <br /> <br />
