Seller lives in the US, I live in The Netherlands so I'll have to pay 100 Euros of import tax. I found this: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Lenovo-ThinkPad-T440-14-Intel-Core-i5-1-9GHz-8GB-RAM-240GB-SSD-Laptop-569-/121846535008?hash=item1c5e9e9360:g:IksAAOSwSHZWeYlu

any specific model I should look for?

I still have a bad feeling about it though... from my experience buying second hand things does not go smoothly...

would it really be smart to buy second hand?

What would you recommend then? for around 500 Euros?

Why so? This seems perfect: ASUS r556la xx2436t ​

I'd prefer to buy them new. I'm only looking for something like this: http://www.laptopshop.nl/product/637218/asus-r556la-xx2131t.html ​

It looks like a good laptop but all i'm going to be doing is typing. It doesn't even need to have a Gpu at all! all of this is overkill for what I'm going to be doing

Y50 is way too expensive. I only really want to spend 500 euros MAX

I really don't like Macbooks, that's just me.

Looking for a good laptop for school work. The ONLY thing I'll be doing with this laptop is typing. I have 900 euros max but I'd prefer to spend around 400-500 (so I can buy some games or a gaming mouse for my main rig or something). The only thing it really needs is good build quality and a good keyboard/screen. Thanks in advance!

Can't find anything wrong with it! Thanks for all the help!

Would be in budget, they are the same price

VERY over budget, I could convince him to save up a little more though he really wants to upgrade from his potato laptop. This mobo would be in-budget: MSI 970A-G46

The mobo is bit over budget and I really can't afford to spend more unfortunately and it seems a little overkill for the FX-4300
