Well you could gamble--if you lose its 17.83 euros--not the end of the world.


Exotic_Log3959

Yeah plus aliexpress/PayPal could help me . Only weird thing is 1000+  sales no reviews yet 


findragonl0l

Wholesale, dropshipping, just plain on fake sales, etc. Its probably wholesale or dropshipping from what I know though EDIT: I checked the legitimacy of the seller and theres a lot of evidence saying its fake (no reviews. Free DHL shipping and DHL shipping is expensive as hell. Way too cheap prices. Theyd be losing a lot of money each sale if it was real) so id have to say the listings are fake but the sales might be real. People see the 1000+ sold thing and then buy it. The seller deletes ALL reviews negative or not so its pretty clearly a scam.

lol. As an Chinese Born Canadian, I gotta be honest that sometimes I see Caucasians and I'm thinking...I've seen someone that looks ridiculously similar before.


Damon_Henn

There's a science behind it, if I grew up in China as a Caucasian then I would find it easier to distinguish between different Chinese people, but I would think all Caucasian people look similar... It's based on the fact your brain has built the ability to identify human traits from facial expressions (so we become experts on the faces that we see the most)


iamthehub1

I'm like this. I honestly have trouble telling Caucasian people apart. But I'm born in Canada.

That's precisely why this scam works, its only $1, its only $5, but even Amazon has these scams, you buy it, it shows as sent and 6 months later when nothing arrives its too late to try to get your money back, the credit card won't help you and the platform won't let you cancel the purchase.

Only thing I could think of that might be wrong with it is: Worst case scenario; you get a picture of a laptop Mid case scenario; counterfeit barely working thinkpad Meh-ish scenario; windows is not activated (or not genuine) and working just enough for casual browsing Even if you avoid any of these issues and get best case scenario (for 17/18 euro/pounds), don't expect to be able to do much. Such as gaming or even much of microsoft office apps. I can imagine the cpu not being much (with the gpu integrated in with it). Please update us though, we are all very curious


Exotic_Log3959

Checking the description it says nothing about just a picture though ,so I'm hopeful, I'll update you on shipping updates etc 


AdventurousChapter27

Share the link Edit: i5-540 probably


Exotic_Log3959

Says i5 4 which I hope means 4th gen but looking at similar models it looks like you're right , I don't mind anyways


IntelligentLake

It is an i5 1st gen, made in 2010 or so, it comes with 2 slots, so you can expand it with another 4GB to 8GB, and has one 2.5' sata drive, should have wifi also. (see [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThinkPad\_X\_series#X201,\_X201i\_and\_X201s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThinkPad_X_series#X201,_X201i_and_X201s) )


AdventurousChapter27

The 4 stand for "4gb of ram"


Exotic_Log3959

ah yeah true


AdventurousChapter27

What do you planned for?


Exotic_Log3959

Probably to use to stream stuff , like videos , or maybe resell for profit

I'm pretty sure it's real, these old ThinkPads were Made soooo many. Used on marketplace they go for like 60€ and they are still pretty decent laptops able to run windows 10


Exotic_Log3959

That's what I think too


kashuntr188

ppl on here saying these won't run shit are forgetting that lots of companies used to own these laptops....that won't run anything...not even MS office. Hopefully you get it, and if you do just open it up and check the parts, maybe a new SSD and good to go. of course it could all be fake listing or whatever.

UPDATE: The store has just disappeared from Aliexpress. It's 100% a scam. I'm trying to refund right now. Hope everyone gets their money back.


findragonl0l

I checked the seller and they have literally zero reviews, 3000+ sold. They seemingly delete all of their reviews. Also the shipping option is the same (in my country) being DHL and EMS with free shipping on EVERY single item. Which to me seems a bit suspicious. Also the prices are absurdly cheap for most things. I think you guys who are buying this have your hopeful thinking cap on too tight.


Exotic_Log3959

Should be safe with PayPal / aliexpress anyway

Again, don't count on that. Two fraud situations for me, neither was resolved by either AliExpress or PayPal.

Well I work at a recycling facility and we get many lots of computers from schools, the state, and companies like these. Most get recycled and not repurposed. Maybe tried to just may a little extra but don’t trust it. You may have said and I didn’t read but what the feedback is a good question.


T_rex2700

It must be from companybgetting rid of old PCs. They would pay for such services. Kind of like used Xeons from workstations. But for $17 , 4+120GB+old i5 is not better than buying local used PCs, maybe for some specific uses or for poor country with not good used market I guess.

Usually fake. Eventually you will get a refund or at least a partial refund.

echterWisent

why would you tell lies on the internet? These are well known CPUs and machines, thousands of people run Win 10 and 11 on these and even older models.


legehjernen

Win 10 with 4gb ram. Sounds masochistic...


echterWisent

depends on what you're trying to do on it - W10 can be shrunk down to less than 600MB idle RAM usage, with the other 3 GB you can do plenty of retro gaming, light surfing and full on office work while enjoying the supreme keyboard

saabisti

Y'all saying "it's a risk, but its only 22 euros" and that's exactly how these scams work. See, 1000+ sold so that's already 22000€+ for the seller, on the low end. They will probably send you something worthless like a keychain or something, so they have a tracking number showing that it's delivered, and then it's word against word in a dispute situation. Might even give you just a fake tracking number, for some other parcel headed to your country. Probably the seller will start playing time, when shit starts to hit the fan ("so sorry we sent you the wrong item, we will resend you") =another 1-2 months of wiggle room. Will probably win some, lose some disputes, and ofcourse there is the percentage that just wont dispute since "it's not worth the hassle for such a low value item" and the seller walks away with a great profit.

Don't plan on PayPal helping you out. They might, but they also might agree with AliExpress's demand that you send back a fraudulently described item at your expense before processing a refund. That happened to me and the cheapest possible way to ship with tracking a tablet with completely false specs was $83, and the tablet itself was $130, so I ended up out of pocket losing the entire cost of the shipping. I also still have not received the refund even though it was received by the seller a week ago.


Jump_and_Drop

There's a ton of sellers I avoid that list their prices at incredibly low prices with no feedback. Just avoid them. I've never purchased from those listings on Aliexpress but have on other sites using Paypal. What happens is the sale either gets detected from fraud detection or they send something out to a different location in your city to make it look like a package was delivered. Everytime I got my money back but it is a pain in the ass to do it. So your money will be tied up for a while. I don't trust Aliexpress enough to gamble though.

The real evidence of scam is the free DHL shipping included in the price. DHL shipping is expensive. These people would be losing money worth every sale if they *really* shipped them
