Their customer service Is quite poor, so a lengthy process can be expected.
you were right, they asked fedex to require taking picture of adult government id with signature (something that's usually done for alcohol), at that point I decided to just deny the delivery instead of going through all the headache with asus.

Good move.

Personally, I don't distribute my ID to any entity for the purpose of filing a claim.

FYI for anyone who's thinking of SEing rog ally directly from asus:
rog ally has it's own shipping box so you can't order multiple item together to do PEB or EB, and for delivery they require the driver to scan government ID so DNA isn't possible either. the only thing I can think of working is to do S/N and boxing,
so if you want rog ally, go through best buy.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking about giving a try to Asus but with everything I read on this forum, I don't think I will attempt to SE them directly.

Though I am thinking about trying the sealed box method with the Rog Ally on some online store, not sure which one yet. It's a very simple seal and might be easy enough to reseal very well.

ally is only available on best buy and asus.com. I actually did a sealed box with best buy before but that was a $300 item, please keep us updated if you go through with it

Any update?

Asus takes ages to finally respond, like 4 months of waiting at my case..

I decided against it in the end. Went with Dell, which was easy peasy lemon squeezy.
