Where to get a W530 Bottom base Case?
Where to get a W530 Bottom base Case?
Hi all the bottom case of my W530 is cracked right where the battery latch is inserted. Lenovo wants $300 to replace it and there is no way I am paying that so I wanted to ask if anyone here had suggestion on where I could purchase a new bottom case. Thank you.

nah I have never heard of that place.
Of course I checked there first , but there was only one case from China so I figured I'd check here.

You can also order them from IBM Parts. I have bad experience with ebay trying to order a bottom base for the X201, 3 times broken in a row.

Whichever way to go keep in mind there is more than one bottom base for W530's. The differences have to do with CPU and GPU.
