if you are looking for a refurbished laptop, get in touch as they typically sell within 48 hours of me advertising them on the Facebook selling pages, so there is no point updating the website.
older dual core laptops are typically £45 to £90 but with a fresh operating system, office and new battery.
The average price for i3 is £130 and an i5 around £150, both with windows 10, office and anti virus
ssd options also available, making them around 5 x faster
October 2020 Covid update
As most people are now fixed up with laptops from either working at home and back to school has now already happened, demand has slowed right down and I now just buy to order.
There's was a general shortage of laptops anyway since March 2020, as the manufacturing plants in China were shut down, delaying products from even being exported and arriving by sea.
This has led to massive demand for 2nd hand laptops, with students and workers needing to work from home.
As a result of the shortage, some seller's are wanting £100 for an 11 year old laptop, with a battery that does not work.
These are the type that I used to be able to buy for £45 delivered and sell for £70ish with new battery and fresh operating system, office and anti virus, so beware.
New laptops are generally slow unless you spend at least £350
The reason is, every company has an obligation to lower their carbon footprint, so slow laptops are made that use very little electricity. so please don't go to pc world and ask for a basic one.
they will sell you a Reliant Robin for £250, take you to the checkout, then ask if you want Office and antivirus, which is around £80 extra.
please note, The office they sell you is office 365. this is an ANNUAL subscription, costing around £80 a year !!
