Solve : second hand decent laptop?

Answer»

Hi all, I have a £190 voucher on C ex exchange shop and am looking to purchase an equivalent priced 2nd hand laptop from them.  Here is there website - https://uk.webuy.com/search/index.php?sortOn=box_rating_desc&stext=laptop&section=all&layout=grid
My wife has a good laptop and all im looking for is a basic reliable one for me - i am not INTERESTED in gaming.  I would use it for browsing, looking through/storing pictures, watching tv programmes /films on and doing some basic microsoft word work on it.  I USED to have a think pad lenovo which i loved type 2847 - it lasted me abou4-5years and worked quick and don’t remember having much issues with it.  Anyway it died and I used my wife's old sony model PCG-61211M.  This laptop was ok also but was quite old on me starting to use it and died again.  I am currently using my dad's lenovo - which is new but was slow for him and i'm finding the internet slow too it’s a lenovo B50-30.  I'm giving this info to show what kinda laptop worked well for me in the past to try and help for you to know what best to suggest for me if anyone has the time. 

This one looks like a good match and STAYS in the budget of your voucher at 185

   Didnt look that far into it,, just saw specs and PRICES... Didnt pay attention to other clutter on the page, but yes it appears that that is not available.  Personally I'd look at laptops designed for BUSINESS use such as the Dell Latitude, Lenovo ThinkPad or HP Probook/EliteBook ranges. They tend to be better made than the more consumer focussed machines. Unfortunately CeX doesn't have the best selection of machines in the world and prices can often fall well above the used price from the likes of eBay but since you have a voucher you're limited to what they have.  Below are a few decent looking options I can find, they are slightly over £190 but they seem well worth the £10/15 extra over what I could find for £190 or less.
