Laptop too cheap - was it stolen?

I found a laptop on the internet for 60 euro.

I've already written to the seller, you can come and pick it up, he says.

However, the price makes me wonder.

According to the description, everything works fine, you can surf the Internet smoothly or create Word / Excel files, 4 hours battery life, power supply included, which also works… And all for a price of 60 euro.

The seller has been on Facebook since 2010.

Look whether YouTube runs smoothly, look at the battery life and on the touch (mouse) whether it runs smoothly.

Why should it cost significantly more? The device cost 300 euro 6 years ago if I haven't seen the wrong one. It's not worth much more.

You can take it for 60 bags.

Just don't expect much performance.

Surfing and a bit of office stuff he'll manage.

Will you be able to surf the web fluently for 1 or even another 2.3 years and do office work on it if nothing breaks on your laptop?

By the way, thanks for your help.

That's not bad, I got a DV6 for 70 euro at the time that comes from it because they are old or because people don't know their way around. From the seller who made a mistake my good old Dv6 has already survived 2 new computers from me. All the people out there don't underestimate the old tech and computers.

Aren't the 60 euro pretty expensive for that thing?

See: https://www.zdnet.com/article/acer-aspire-e11-windows-laptop-for-199/

So it cost $ 200 7 years ago. So right from the start it was the cheapest possible laptop.

Technical data is also there:
Intel Celeron 2.16 GHz, Windows 8.1
2GB Ram and 32GB disk

Oh yes and the display is 1366x768 11.6 inches

If you just want to watch YouTube anyway, you could also consider a tablet. Or a laptop that is even cheaper.
I don't see 60 euro really justified, what for?

Otherwise, yes, with the small hard drive space, RAM and the weak CPU, the thing is really only suitable for YouTube (and co). Practically every computer of the last X years should be able to create Excel tables for free.

It depends on which E11 it is exactly.

Acer had a whole series called E11 in its range.

But it should be enough for a year or two.

It is important that an SSD is in it and at least 4GB of RAM.

Then he'll be able to do it.

"… Can surf the web and do office work…"

But just that.

Just don't get the idea to play with it.

If you still have doubts, pick him up in person and have it demonstrated to you.

32 GB hard drive is very scarce for Windows 10. This could cause an update to overflow and crash.

That's why this thing also works with Windows 8

… And because the box is ancient, of course
