Hey there fellas,

I was after a sub $1000 laptop with 16gb ram. I am willing to extend that a little bit if there is a good deal. Need the laptop for a variety of things other than gaming. I need it to be around 14 inches higher or lower but definitely not 15.6.

I found a great Harvey Norman deal they put me on back order but then couldn't acquire stock which is frustrating.

Thanks again.

      Thanks a lot, it sounds picky but i havent had a good experience with the past 2 refurbished laptops i bought. Also i dont trust myself enough to upgrade the ram myself especially if its soldiered.

        In that case

        https://www.centrecom.com.au/lenovo-thinkbook-14-g4-14-fhd-i…
        ThinkBook 14 G4 $1099
        FHD i5-1235U 16GB DDR4 256GB NVMe Windows 11 Pro Laptop
        Not refurb and no RAM upgrade required.

        Just FYI Refurbished laptops from Dell can be considered 'very new' laptops, they are often just customer returned stock that's had their issues fixed, factory re-rested and usually in pristine condition. It's quite a lot different from buying from a 3rd party refurbishers like BNEACTRADER or Fusetech.

          Thankyou for your time, i appreciate it. There is a better laptop from officeworks which is the hp pav plus 14.

          My previous refurbished laptop was from Dell and was A grade. Rhey assumed it was a RAM problem, fixed it and sold it. At the end they didnt accept my return and turns out it had a cpu and motherboard problem .

          Anyways appreciate the help

            @JJtoTheRadio: Did you buy it from Dell or a 3rd party?h
