t410 is this a good buy?

Hi everyone I was wondering if this is a good buy at this price? I need a new laptop and was considering the T420 but now I'm on a budget.

Lenovo T410 practically new $450 o.b.o

Thanks in Advance <3

 

Ask if the recovery partition is still in tact and if it is still in warranty?

 

Will do. I'm meeting up with the seller tomorrow at a coffee shop. What's the recovery partition? And is there anything else I should ask? What if the warranty expired?

 

I got lucky and found a t410 with a better hard drive (500gb 7200 rpm) and more ram (4gb) for $30 less on the lenovo outlet website...if I were you and if your not in a hurry I would just keep checking the outlet website you'd probably find a better deal there.

 

I do check the outlet and I always see the prices around 600$. Was it refurbed?

 

when i was in the market for one, i had a hard time finding one under $600 as well. hang in there as the t420 release will affect t410 prices sooner rather than later.

 

pretty cheap. So i would say go for it, under the condition it is not stolen or have lots of physical damages. Check whether there is any cracks and also check the hinge stiffness.

 

Looks like a great deal to me too, like mentioned make sure it does have some ownership proof that this was not stolen, if you can the receipt and check for warranty and you should be golden.

 

yes go for it. Since outlet is most of the time mi finding good deals. Also on outlet it will be refurbish and no idea how is condition until you receive it.

Just bought Kingston 96GB SSD BRAND NEW for $110 on craigslist. I also sell & buy from craigslist since you can always check the item before buying.

 

I just got something off the outlet, and I agree that sometimes the quality of the "good deals" tend to be in very bad condition I got one with a dead pixel and a bad wireless card... but I loved the deal, so I decided to send it into service.

 

Yes it is a refurb. I've had good luck with refurb's from the lenovo outlet.
