Roads for hunting cheap laptops

At the end of the year of Mau Ty, in the beginning of the year of the Ox, many portable laptop shops brought back old and cheap goods. However, not everyone earns "good" machines at this time.

On this occasion, many laptop models are decreasing in price, from 700,000 to 1,500,000 VND compared to a month ago. In addition, the competition between stores before the year-end situation also made many laptops have "fierce" price competition every day. A Pentium 4 laptop is only about 3.5 to 4 million VND. Meanwhile, machines using Dual Core processor only have 6.5 million dong. The owner of a laptop shop on Dan Chu street, Thu Duc district, Ho Chi Minh City, said: " Customers who buy a new device are only sporadic, and most of them watch old models imported from abroad or used products. used in Vietnam ".

New laptops have reduced prices but are also quite picky
with some people who need to buy a laptop.

Walking around buying and selling websites is a "familiar" job for the people who are hunting for "good, cheap, cheap" laptops. Mr. Vo Minh Nguyen, Dong Da, Hanoi, confided, buying old laptops at the end of the year is easy but it is difficult to choose a machine for the price and "quality" it takes a lot of time and effort. . The story of brand production to form and configuration and price are all carefully considered.

Along the same point of view, Mr. Nguyen Hung Lan, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City has lost all the time running back and forth during working hours to "reach" the machine. He said, " because it is not very technical, so every time you see it, it is thanks to the advice of your friends. But through some models, it is too bad, so just wait for other goods to be better. " .

Cheap laptops are always attractive to consumers, but there are also potential risks.

If you are hard to "hunt", many people can buy a "good" machine, but many people are "in distress" with this case.

Ms. Le Thi Thuy, Thanh Xuan, Hanoi, recalled that she was fascinated by the low-cost machine on the internet - a small laptop, a 12-inch screen, which was only about 4 million dong, with a one-month warranty. However, the warranty period of the machine has failed to fail, when the Wi-Fi wave cannot be caught, it must be brought to the store to replace another Wi-Fi card, the time is "dull". "At first, when I bought it, I ran quickly, after a week or two I saw a slow run," she shook her head dejectedly. After asking your new friend to check or your device is "assembled" rather than "import from Japan" as the advertisement.

Mr. Tran Van Hung, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City, had also been in the same case, but luckily, when he bought, he witnessed the "craftsmen" installing the hard drive, so he just looked over and left.

Time near the end of the year or the first month after Tet is always ready for many cheap laptops both new and old.

" Most businesses do not want to stock up at the time of a yearly sluggish period. Besides, running sales also makes many consumers benefit on this occasion, " said Huynh Ba Loc, representative FPT distributor commented.

Moreover, the time when a lot of hand-held goods go home "eat Tet". Many new products were sold at relatively cheap prices in many forums, which made many consumers take advantage of opportunities to earn "good goods".

However, in order to choose an old machine that is good, experienced shoppers recommend that the goods are imported from abroad. If not, you easily fall into the "trap" laptop assembly of skilled workers for taking advantage of this time, many small shops often import components and old shells to assemble into a complete machine.

Machines imported directly from abroad often have very stable quality because the intensity of continuous use of advanced countries is not high. Besides, the success of new products makes these models become fad and in the domestic market with quite cheap prices. When selling in Vietnam, they usually only warranted a store for about a month, a maximum of 3 months, some places even without warranty.

In order to prevent a bad situation from happening, when buying a second-hand machine, you should ask someone with experience to check it. If not, pay attention to the traces of painting, retouch the device or traces of "unzipping" the machine - indicating that the product has been repaired, such as screw with worn marks, torn stamps . In addition, choosing a reputable store or seller is also worth noting.
