Worried about being robbed of my hard saved cash buying a laptop. Please Help

I'm not sure this is the best time to buy Laptops anyway.

Maybe when all the 50 million students have finished buying you might get some better offers.

Two false assumptions, when the next tranche of students have finished conning their (1) parents to pay through the nose for an overspeced lappie, it will be ( 2 ) Christmas and time for the retail / manufacturer's to charge an inflated through the nose price for everything on the planet

what do you think of this laptop with the free printer/scanner/copier?

This Sony would have been quite nice at £500. Full HD Display and BluRay disc writer. Sadly now sold out. Keep an eye on the website.

You won't find an i3 laptop much cheaper than that. It's got a good spec but consider buying an extended guarantee at some point as Acer's only have average reliability.

Gutted. I totally would have snapped that up. Why do all the good ones go un noticed till it's too late ((. Good Spot though.

Seems as though the pages time out....

So what do you think to the MSI http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MSI-CR610-BLU-RAY-16IN-LAPTOP-REFURB-/360296938637?pt=UK_Computing_Laptops_EH&hash=item53e35efc8d#ht_2073wt_937

Some people are saying the processor will let you down performance wise. What say you?

Mk14:37

I bought this, and am happy to recommend it.

Samsung Electronics
Samsung R580 Laptop

Intel Core i3-350M 2.26GHz
3GB RAM
320GB HDD
15.6" Gloss SuperBright
NVIDIA GeForce 310M
Bluetooth + Webcam
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

I've seen some anti- ebuyer threads here on MSE but the transaction for me was simple and straightforward - paid my money and received the goods, not much more you can ask for! I'd certainly buy from them again.

I never recommended it as basically you were paying £75 more (over the one just sold out) for a Bluray player that you are unlikely ever to use. The Sony had a Bluray writer. Much more useful.

So I can hardly say to you now that you should buy it. This MSI CR610 at £299, sold out last night. It was much better value. But well below your budget.
