WTB: X1 Original and/or unwanted Thinkpads.

#1 Post by HalH509 » Wed Nov 19, 2025 12:04 am

Hello, I have recently gotten really into thinkpads, I think theyre really cool and as a extremely broke highschool student they are a good way for me to learn about computers. I am learning so much experimenting with different operating systems and opening them up! And even using my thinkpads for travel, school, and work!

Anywho, I recently got my hands on a X1 Original (Non carbon version) from 2011 and I'm in love with its keyboard! Unfortunately It's missing several keys and was hoping to source a model with all the keys since I would like to restore it to it's former glory. I have a replacemnt battery on the way but the keys are just not worth the price im finding them for ($50 for the 7 missing keys I have).

Having gotten so into these awesome laptops I was hoping to also purchase any unwanted ones you folks may have! I dont mind a project but I also don't have a whole lot of money to spend... unfortunately.... I was hoping to maybe get a R61 for around $30-$40 maybe? But I dont have specific preferneces for these I would just like to get a couple for super cheap as projects to work on :)

Thanks for reading! Sorry if it's long...
