    Where do people order pre-configured Thinkpads from?

    Some searches of the internet found me this reseller: Cost Central

    They seem to have the best price on this model. Including shipping the same model from them is $100 less than Newegg, for example.

    If it were a smaller purchase I wouldn't be quite so timid about just buying from the retailer with the lowest price, but this is quite a bit more than I generally spend online.

    Have people dealt with Cost Central before? Where else (other than direct from Lenovo) have people bought thinkpads?

    I'm on a fairly tight budget so I'd really like to find the best deal out there on this model.
