Thinkpadmike Avis 

Really helpful advice on which units to purchase, quick to ship, and products were excellent as described

Superb Service and, a true Gentleman! I will definitely be back here should I need anything else in the future.

So far I'm really happy with the T480 laptop, no issues at all. I ordered from Mike because I trusted him to refirbish more than big refurbishers where you can receive somethint that doesn't last. Mike replied quickly when I followed a wrong tracking link, delivery was a couple of days, and if the laptop holds up I'll definitely be ordering from his business again. It's special that there is somebody focusing purely on refurbishing Thinkpads in Yorkshire.

Laptop was like new. Fast delivery, good price. Very happy with my purchase :)

I started looking for an inexpensive Windows laptop and found Thinkpadmike on eBay. Discovered his website with all the laptops he had for sale and immediately became aware of the meticulous attention to detail Mike puts into renewing every machine. My Lenovo Thinkpad T490 showed up, exactly as described on the website. Been using it for over a year now and I've not encountered any problems. Mike is not just another re-seller, he carefully vets and renews laptops to the highest standard. Thanks Mike!

Fast shipping, good packaging and a great product for the price.

Competitively priced, but clearly some care has been taken to check over, refurbish and prepare the laptop. It arrived well-packaged and works as expected. It's been a couple of weeks and the laptop works properly. I would definitely buy another in future.

I purchased a Thinkpad T480 several months ago from this vendor. Initially it was fine, After a month or so the USB C power connection became a little tempermental and ocassionally needed to be moved slightly to charge. However, after several months it deteriorated, although I was super careful not to strain it in any way, and it has now failed totally. The Thunderbolt connection doesn't work either. The laptop was guaranteed for one month only. I have found that the T480 power slot is soldered to the board so replacing it is very difficult and expensive. I did send a message to Thinkpad Mike asking if he could do a repair but had no reply.
Edit after reading the reply.
Yes, that is correct: I ordered the laptop at the end of November. It lasted about six months.

No issues here. Laptop is barely distinguishable from new in appearance. The videos allow you to view the exact item you are buying in detail and is just one of the things that set him apart from the usual Ebay sellers.
It is obvious he puts a lot of effort into each unit before sale.
Recommended.

Great service, The laptop (T480) was dispatched and delivered exceptionally quickly and was posted in very sturdy packaging.

Condition is excellent and exactly as described on the website and as shown in the detailed product video.

I am very happy with my purchase and can completely recommend ThinkPad Mike.

Laptop is in pretty decent condition, exactly as described in the listing. Great spec for the price. You can tell Mike knows what he is doing and wants to provide good value and a decent service. I have not seen any refurb sellers that include upgraded storage (and possibly ram too) as standard. Not only that, it turned out he lived 5 minutes away from me and offered to deliver it himself a few hours after I ordered. Same day delivery! What a legend. Cheers Mike, all the best :)

Helpful, item as described. Would definitely use again.

I was after a P53 in very good condition, and Mike had the tidiest looking one I could find. It arrived quickly, and was in exactly the condition his ad described. Having used it for a week now, and getting it set up with a Thunderbolt 3 dock (40AN model) it's just what I was after.
If anyone else is looking to do the same, I've found you don't have to have the expensive 230W 40AN dock kit with the double cable to use a P53. You can plug a 170W power supply directly into the P53 with the Thunderbolt 3 cable, and run the 40AN dock from a 65W power supply (only). This also enables you to use a longer Thunderbolt 3 cable (mine is 1.2m). I 3d printed a housing to join the 170W power supply connector and Thunderbolt 3 connector together, a bit like the expensive (and short) double cable you're supposed to use. The 170W power supply socket on the dock must just be a pass through to the double cable.

The laptop I ordered was as described in the listing. The delivery was speedy and really well protected with bubble wrap and packing foam.

Bought a laptop came exactly as described, and it was shipped and delivered fast.

Mike is the perfect person to buy a laptop from. I found his website very detailed and very helpful. When you are buying something you want all of the information, and Mike went above and beyond with providing a very detailed description and images of the laptop. Mike also helped me choose between a couple of laptops. Very good service and very helpful. highly recommended people. I am a business owner and will need more laptops in the future for my employees. I am glad i went to Thinkpadmike who i can use as my future supplier with confidence.

Ordered a refurbished Thinkpad. Quality of item is as described. It would be difficult to determine that it was a refurbished item. Deliver was as detailed at time
Of order. I would definitely order another if I needed to.

Excellent laptop, very well packaged and fast delivery. First class.

Friendly communication, fast dispatch and delivery times.
Overall a great service. Very happy with laptop.
