EDIT: Turns out the real "source" here is an aggregator web site, Calibex.com, http://www.calibex.com/SONY-VPCZ122GX-S-13-749936864/cb2/prices-html , that has a crawler of some sort that finds whatever unit you search for wherever it is then available for sale. In addition to the Z1s at Tech for Less, below, there was also one at B&H and they also threw in some Z2 listings. Worth a look.
The link with the most refurb Z1s is "Tech For Less" Sony VPC-Z137GX/B Notebook PC | refurbished Laptops / Notebooks
Seems to me they regularly list on eBay, but this is the first time I've seen a non-eBay storefront selling refurb Z1s, other Sony Vaios and other brands. They have a full refund policy and sell extd wttys, but not ADH. They also have open box, scratch and dent, etc.
***Before you get too excited, in the past 10 minutes I've gone in and out of the site a few times and they have shown only one of each of 4 Z1s they list, but now are only showing 2 available, vs. 4 5 mins. ago. Looks like they are buying up and refurbing themselves, so may be a site to watch as units come and go. Prices are pretty good assuming the condition is good - $1,100 for a base retail model, $1,387 for base + 256GB SSD, $1,600 for same apparent specs as other 256gb model, but perhaps better condition or other features I didn't notice. This does not appear to be a scammer at all, though "caveat emptor" always.![]()
Happy hunting!
