My main focus will be laptop research regardless of the price. "Purchase Decision" Videos will be the main focus from now on.

The laptop research requires hard work for many hours and hence I have also removed tech help from contact pages and updated youtube comment guidelines that these tech help comments will be deleted. Since tech purchase help is already a paid thing, those will also be removed.

Already fixed the sheet to show the retail/offline prices and the last few videos, I changed the details to reflect the same.

Why?

1. I love researching:
   For the past few days all I have done is researched laptops for blogs and then videos and the reception has been great. Your comments and watchtime tell the real story. Since I never ask for likes, shares or subs and never will, I can't expect those numbers to increase.
   And I want to continue doing that. That's the main thing.
   
   
2. People buying offline won't feel left out:
   Most people still buy offline. When they see a value lower than what they can get offline, they feel terrible about not being able to get it for the same price offline. For years my DMs and comments have been filled with people asking will they get the same offers offline.
   Those who chose to buy online and chose to use the extra savings that is now visible on the excel sheet in red color and on the laptop site at the bottom page will still get those benefits. But now the values will be the worst case values. If you save extra money, it will be a bonus over it.
   
   
3. It's hard for new people to trust me, trust which is required for the 7% coupons and rebates and even credit card cashbacks:
   Even though I have streamlined the rebate and the 7% discount coupon process so you don't need to ask me anything at all, you just pay or use the process and get what you want, my comments and DMs are still filled with people, mainly people who can't trust me because they just found this channel today.
   Rebates and Coupons require a level of trust that they don't want to.
   I just expected that the process although complex is understandable and many people who used it have confirmed this. It is very easy to follow although it might look intimidating. I even made videos in hindi and english to explain all this (unlisted though linked on site).
   But people still don't want to pay or use links of a handsome looking dude on the internet because he doesn't look flamboyant and doesn't edit videos with epileptic seizure level effects.
   
   
4. Other brands now get a chance:
   Removing all these extra savings from Lenovo Laptops will give other brands a chance to even be compared to.
   Before today, people kept complaining about why I don't check other brands, although not true (I have researched laptops that I expected to fall in price or were hugely discounted) it was rare. I am going to review all brands in a certain non-discounted price range and compare against them.
   
   
5. It is soul crushing to keep checking account balance:
   It is a horrible experience expecting donations, affiliates or payments in the middle of the night when can't sleep because of how little I am making. Removing all this removes any expectations from my head that I will ever make money off of links and donations and even tech helps and then I can focus on actually testing if youtube should be my full time thing or should I quit it. Right now due to a few payments everyday I get little ray of hope everytime someone pays that I might be able to do it full time but removing all this removes all hope of it and clears away the fog for that tough decision: Should I just quit YouTube.
