For whatever reason you want a used laptop and you want to find it online. Here are 5 great places to find what you’re looking for from 5 very different online websites.
EBay.com – Maybe you’ve heard of it or maybe you’ve been frozen for the last 15 years. The idea of buying a used computer from eBay is a little scary but if you were to ask any active eBay buyer if online person to person buying is safe they would surely tell you that eBay really has this online auction thing down to a science. How do they keep you safe? Well basically all users have accounts with their history and just like any trusted company these users have a reputation with a feedback rating and comments from other users, so if you find something you like you can easily look up the seller’s transaction history. Along with this almost every transaction is done through PayPal so you are not giving any strangers your credit card information. EBay really has become one of the very safest ways to shop online.
TigerDirect.com- This is an online electronic mega store offering both new and refurbished items. It’s a well established company that often has video demonstrations of the item you wish to buy. It’s like the home shopping center on demand.
Frys.com- This option is the best of both worlds as Frys.com items can be brought back to the store to return. They offer both new and refurbished computer systems and often have online only specials.
Amazon.com – Is a great place to find all kinds of things around the internet and it’s a big reputable name that many people have used. The selection is great and when you have found what you want you have the flexibility to check their huge selection for a better price on both the item and shipping and I strongly encourage you to keep looking for a better deal because most of the time you will find one.
Craigstlist.org – The world’s biggest online garage sale. Many people are selling things from craigslist every day, especially nowadays. This option is your best bet for the best price as people are normally looking to make a quick sale. Buyer beware as there are plenty of shady people looking to sell their junk so insist on checking the item out very carefully before buying, if everything seems good start from scratch and check it over again. If the second go round passes the test then you may have just saved a fist full of cash.
