$99 Laptops makes Web Connectivity Affordable for Everyone

August 10, 2012 , 1 Frank Gurnee

With a change in times and state of the economy many people have held off on major purchases and have gotten longer lives out of the electronics they own. In the same respect some have found it difficult to upgrade or even purchase computer equipment. With websites such as Craigslist and eBay continuing to grow their popularity based around used or refurbished items, a new company has emerged to fill a much needed niche.

As the popularity of laptops and netbooks has surpassed the traditional desktop, so has the surplus of off lease, refurbished, and used equipment. $99 Laptops has emerged on the scene to meet a demand that seems to make good sense. With web access and cloud solutions driving the market, processing power becomes less important and connectivity as well as access to web content becomes the key to giving people the tools needed to stay connected.

I remember in outside sales many business owners asking if we had used or refurbished systems. Whether this was for them, a relative, sibling, or gift, the demand was always there for less expensive alternatives. Programs at major retailers like layaway and flexible payment plans have made a comeback and also show a need for reduced cost alternatives.

With the availability of WIFI everywhere we go it is good to see a company making devices to connect to the free resources affordable. The opportunity at this price point is there for solution providers as well MSP’s to add some refurbs for stock. There are many things that MSP’s or IT solution providers can do with older laptops. Add loaners to your value added service for repairs that may require extra time or shipping offsite. Provide “for sale” alternatives when a repair is going to cost more than a system is worth and a customer does not want to spend too much. Another idea may to be to purchase some for local charities such as senior centers or children’s hospitals.

At a $99 price point the ideas are endless. The stock is ever changing but it is easy to find an available gem amongst the mix. Checking the website often is the key to finding the best deals. Come up with ways to enhance your business or provide value added services by stocking used notebooks and provide your clients and customers with a service they will surely appreciate.

99 Dollar Laptop, a company that offers its customers laptops that cost $99 or less, has just opened for business.

The website features refurbished laptops that are in good condition and can satisfy any financial situation.

The makers of 99 Dollar Laptop realize that not everyone can afford a new laptop that costs $600 or more. They also understand that just about everybody—from young students to senior citizens—needs access to a decent computer. That is why they opened their company; to provide their customers with budget-friendly laptops that they can use to have access to the internet.

99 Dollar Laptop obtains its stock of cheap laptops from suppliers who are closing out their inventories. After refurbishing systems and making sure they are tested for any possible problems, the laptops are posted on the website for sale.

Every laptop sold through the new website comes with a guarantee that it is fully working, unless otherwise stated. Laptop hard drives come with a 30 day warranty after purchase. If any of the laptops have scratches or dents, these cosmetic issues will be visible in the photos or description.

Because the stock sells rapidly and many of the laptops sold through 99 Dollar Laptop are one of a kind, the stock is always rotating. Customers who visit the website from day to day are sure to always find new deals on refurbished laptops.

“Most if not all of our laptops are one of each,” an article on the website notes, adding that once a laptop is sold, 99 Dollar Laptop usually doesn’t have any more of that exact one in stock.

It isn’t difficult to find an occasional good steal featuring a laptop with a dual core processor or one of the mini netbooks for only a hundred bucks. Retail and refurbished prices far exceed the $99 pricing on this site.

Using the new website is easy; customers are welcome to visit at any time and browse through the current selection of used laptops. Photos and a thorough description accompany each available computer; this includes information about the processor, memory and hard drive, screen size, operating system, battery condition, included accessories, and more.

For anyone who is strapped for cash but wants access to the internet at a practical price, this is the first place they should visit.
