    Well to purchase the laptop to use, to get it online,

    but as there are many fake looking sites, then asking here for trust worthy sites

    asking for advice if people buy often on online computer sites.

    So you are expect an old brand new laptop for £200? It's not going to happen.

    If you are happy with a good condition refurb with a 12 month warranty, this Medion Akoya E6234 with a full version of Microsoft Office 2010 Home & Student is good value at £175.74

    If you don't need or want Microsoft Office, then this Medion Akoya E6234 is 'as new' for £180.49
    Last one(at least for now)

    Full specification for both laptops to be found here

    DELL has a new laptop; the Inspiron-15-3531 @ just £179.99 You can increase the warranty to 2 years for £30 more.

    But the processor is relatively weedy and there is no optical disc drive.

    Very few retailers, if any, will be selling brand new 'old 2009 - 2012' stock, it just doesn't happen that much in the world of laptops. Technology moves on so fast that stock becomes old very quickly so the value decreases and they'd make losses.
