I almost exclusively buy used. If you want consumer laptops, the end or beginning of a school year is a great time to pick up a cheap but good book.
If you like ultrabooks, they can come off of corporate leases all of the time and you can find some screaming deals on nice Thinkpads, Latitudes, etc.
- palidanx 4y agowhich sites can you find ultrabooks coming off corporate leases?
- legitster 4y agoCraigslist, FB Marketplace, Ebay. In my area there's just a random dude who works as an "electronics recycler" - he buys them off of MSPs in bulk and sells off rebundled PCs. So he just keeps a huge stack of Thinkpads, Latitudes, Probooks, and MacBooks all for about $200-$400. Nearly every metro area I've lived in has had "a guy" or two who does something similar.
- palidanx 4y agointeresting.. any idea how i would find 'that guy' in my metro city?
- legitster 4y agoAgain, just go to Marketplace or Craigslist and search "Thinkpad T" or "Dell Latitude". If there really is no one, there are a couple of liquidation websites you can go to (PCLiquidations, Backmarket).
