I am planning to get new laptop/ipad this year,,, but looking at the price makes me re--think my decission to buy brand new ones. I can't justify myself to spend $2000 for a laptop/ipad. I am not consumptive person, I am still using my phone from 2019, my laptop is from 2016, I need to upgrade my laptop or get an ipad because I need something faster for video editing/ graphic design. But after looking at the price for the brand new ones The ones that I have my eyes on with reasonable price already discontinued I'm trying looking for the 2ndhand ones,,, saw few on marketplace but dang! they're on the other islands,, thousand miles from here is there billionaire in disguise here? please help meee

New laptops are very expensive but if one can afford them, they are the best. I hate second hand devices

I have never bought 2nd hand laptop because my old ones always last long before I need to upgrade to new because their graphic already old. the price for brand new is the same price I spend to buy motorbike

I wouldn’t advise ordering a second hand if you could help it. Maybe you can slowly save up for one? It’s just risky to buy one of those second hand, and I’d hate for you to get ripped off.
