Thanks I dont have a laptop, all my browsing is done via my mobile phone with limited data and some sites dont even display on my phone, I have been saving for a laptop for several months, I dont even have an internet connection so I would suggest you try and understand peoples financial situation instead of thinking they all have the technology, time and the money and thinking I'm just lazy. If you can't help me then that's fine but neither do I expect to be criticised.

Thanks

Who said anything about internet connection. Its quite amazing what you can find if you go into a shop these days, or even in a library which allows you the use of the computers and internet.

The same financial situation as is looking for tablets, refurbished laptops, drop shipping from china, printer.

It was this that got my back up a little, and I never got a tablet, a refurbished laptop, a printer or a shipment from China and all because I decided I could not afford it even though I wanted them. I have had internet and a laptop in the past but due to lack of money I had to sell. Anyway I'm not here for the sympathy I like many others come here to save money. And now I am getting back on my feet I can consider buying luxuries again.

I work 7 to 5 Monday to Saturday so library is not an option. but a friend has kindly said I can use his internet after work to look for goods I want to buy.

I have seen a couple of laptops at save on laptops website that seem to fit what Iam looking for at £300 so my friend is printing the deals off so I can show my girlfriend.
