That's actually low-cost. It costs a bit more than that in Europe. You could have bought it from an official Rigol distributor from (say) Europe, and got it shipped to you, I suspect for about $600-$650 including shipping, if you were OK to pay import duty on it when it arrived to you.
I know that doesn't help now, but for future test equipment purchases above (say) a couple of hundred $, it might be safer to pay the extra amount to buy from an official distributor. But even with a distributor, you'd still likely have to swallow any shipping charges if things go wrong and you need a warranty repair.
Yes, this device is under warranty in China for three years, but it does not have a warranty in Egypt.
I'm sorry if I missed it in the messages and replies, but has it ever worked for you? And if it did, what was the last thing you did before it stopped working?

gordonmx I don't understand what do you mean by " what was the last thing you did before it stopped working?"?
I must admit that I do not know how the customer protection laws works in Egypt, but I am almost sure that if you will contact the China vendor and ask for exchange or money back, they will arrange for equipment exchange.
Okay back to the first question, has it ever worked for you. The second question was more along the line of, it worked for a while, then one day it wouldn't boot. If the latter is the case, what was the last thing you used it for?
It is a new scope and this is the first unboxing it
The Rigol service just sent me the mail and said that "please try the following solutions:
I have a Rigol DHO924S and it comes with the same Liteon PA-1650-58 supply.
It works.
It is quite slow to boot up - maybe a minute or so.
