I use the Alienware Orion. Love it, plenty of pockets, sits well on my back and shoulders.

Save some money and get this bag: https://www.amazon.com/Mobile-Edge-ME-AWBP2-0-Alienware-Checkpoint/dp/B001GI5CSA/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=alienware+orion+17&qid=1573494678&sr=8-3
It fit the 17 R5 perfectly.
It's one of the greatest AW has made. The thing is heavy duty.
I had the Vindicator and it felt cheaper than my 5 year old backpack.
Traveled with the bag containing: 17 R5, charger, 17" cooling pad, XBox controller & adapter, 1 pair of jeans and a few t-shirts and socks. With room to spare.
I found this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001GI5CSA/ref=dp_cerb_1 backpack at a pawn shop in Denver for $15. Been using it for the last three years with zero complaints. Not sure if I'd ever pay retail for it(when it eventually breaks down), but for $15 it was one of the best investments I've made.
Didn't think of looking up specific hardware prices until you said this so here you go:
GTX 980M $340
i7-6700HQ $380
4K Display $200
32GB RAM $145
256GB NVMe SSD $103
1TB HDD $50
Backpack $75
Windows 10 $99
I pay for shipping, $0.
Total: $1392
I'll update my price to $1000.
When I was looking to post this a week ago I had a hard time finding how to price this since when I bought it I bought the upgraded version of it, so when I looked online I either saw worse models for less, and slightly better models for far more. I could never find one with my exact specs.
Lo and behold, the day before I post, someone puts up an Ebay bid for a slightly worse model at $800 + shipping, but when I look on Amazon I still see $1800, $1700, etc.
I saw as low as $700 for an Alienware 15 R2, and as high as $2100 for an Alienware 17 R3 but with a GTX 1080, and newer processor. I asked friends and their suggestions ranged from $1200-1900.
What would you say is the best approach for correctly valuing your tech? I'm just trying to find a fair price for both parties.
