I would recommend my local IT-shop that specialises in MSI laptops, and can do common repairs on them themselves. It's easier to have a repair shop nearby than sending it back to some webshop which sends it to a repair center..
MSI generally has good gaming laptops, so that's an easy choice for me.

But it could be that you don't live near Noordwijkerhout, The Netherlands. Then you'll have to find another shop.

We don't customize them and stick in the top 20 or so models.

Mostly folk yelp about the factory warranty is void. Know this going in.
