Advice on where to get extremely cheap laptops?

So basically I'm looking for advice on where to get a laptop with like 1GB of ram to use as a kali machine for under £15, but everywhere I can think of checking in the uk seems like a lot of effort.

There's quite a few old laptops on eBay for around that price (http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=&_udhi=20&_nkw=laptop&rt=nc&LH_BIN=1)

 

I've gotten lots of old laptops for free from my Dad's work, so if you know someone in a business-y type place you could ask them to look around for something. Most businesses just dump their old computers in a cupboard somewhere.

True story, I've had better luck finding cheap, usable laptops at garage sales than I have anywhere else. You'd be amazed what a little lesson on how far technology has come since that Core 2 Duo's day and a $10 bill (or two) can get you.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.
