hi, years go this site was very helpful in getting me a really good refurb ex-business laptop with did me great servioce but its time to replace.
I'd like to do the same again but the place i bought from then, MSCcom, appears to have disappeared.
Does anyone have any good recommendations for sites?
I'm looking for a decent home use/bit work crossover laptop. My previous was a latitude win10pro I5 12gb 500hdd. i appreciate your time. J

How old are you looking for? Someone was recommending a site recently, and others say they've used it, but the laptops were typically 5-10 years old and yes they were relatively cheap (lot less so for Mac) for a functioning laptop you could get much more modern devices elsewhere for similar prices.johannis said:hi, years go this site was very helpful in getting me a really good refurb ex-business laptop with did me great servioce but its time to replace.

For anyone considering second-hand refurbed laptop this weekend, it is worth checking the prices for used against new prices under "black Friday deals".
I saw a laptop in the local PC refurb store at £295. Pretty much the same specification is available at the Dell website at £350. If the budget will stretch, and for that small delta in cost, a new machine would seem to win out.
Of course, the potential for a financial gain is greater if going for a higher end laptop.2 -
Dell outlet has savings vs new for virtually new or fairly new 'refurbs' fully certified by Dell.Do compare prices though....1

There is a huge market in refurbed Lenovo laptops - generally ex corporate ones that have been replaced for no reason other than they're a couple of years old.
Search on ebay for 'lenovo laptop refurb' and only use sellers with big feedback scores (10000+).1 -

Morgan computers were always good and still exist online although they no longer have shops as far as I know.1
