A shout out for my recycled hardware supplier Refurbed.ie 👍.
Over the last number of years I have purchased and configured multiple laptops either for clients or staff.
I have always used refurbed.ie , as the name suggests you get a refurbished laptop in perfect working order for a fraction of the price you would pay for a new one.
For this HP Elitebook G5 I paid €346 including vat and delivery
The only issue is re-configuring the laptop from German to English , took a little bit of time.
