Paid a total of $298.51 (incl. taxes) for this laptop.Condition was very good, and getting Windows setup was very quick. Everything is very fast and responsive. Battery life seems to be OK. I used the other day for a couple of hours and I had no issues.Keep in mind that I wasn't trying to push the laptop to its limits or anything. I intend to use this laptop for basic tasks, and as such if the battery performance isn't great, I have no issues with that because I don't mind it keeping plugged in.I did not notice a lot of bloatware, expect for rubbish apps that come installed with Windows on default.I thoroughly recommend this for anyone who is looking for a laptop for basic office work (email, zoom calls, web browsing etc.).
