Thinkpads Forum

Hey!
My first post in this forum so I hope I did everything as determined in the board rules.

As the title already suggests, I am looking to buy a Lenovo X200 or X200s.
I would prefer a seller within the EU for I live in Germany and ordering from a non-EU state would cost a lot of taxes. Please only sellers who allow paying by paypal, because it seems to me that this is the most secure way and I am not really interested in wasting my money.

What the nootbook should have:
- matte screen (as far as I know every x200(s) has a matte screen)
- good battery status would be nice
- warranty, but that's not a must-have
- thinklight
- WWAN is a nice extra, but also not a must-have
- I don't need any highend upgrades that increases the price needlessly like for example 128gb or more ssd memory.

All in all, you can say that I am looking for a solid, good-working and portable machine with good battery life and enough power to do the usual university stuff like office, internet and so on

So offer whatever you have for sale!

Thanks in advance!

Still searching

The OP doesn't want to pay import taxes shipping a laptop from outside of the EU into Germany. (period) ... I tried .

Which is sad really because even after taxes, shipping and insurance, some of the units from North America that sellers have on here beat pricing for units sold in Europe.

All the units I have sold have gone to buyers in Europe who simply cannot find better deals.

I am still looking for a thinkpad. I may be also interested in non european-offers, if the taxes are not that high and the seller has some experience shipping laptops international.

Friendly regards,

Many of us have International shipping experience, or else we would not have offered. Taxes you'd have to research on your end ...

Sometimes you can mark the package as gift or old laptop to avoid, but if it doesn't have much value, you can't insure it. That has risk too.
