The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022.

Where is the best place to buy a thinkpad? Who offers the most competitive prices?

I'm not going to say it's the best but I will say that I had a good experience with them. DHL, on the other hand... I had gotten a free case (after mail-in rebate) and it was packed in a separate package from the laptop. Well, 1 package came and I opened it up to find the case. So, I call DHL and ask them where my other package was and they tell me they must have forgotten to put it on the truck. So the laptop came a day later.

Personally, i'd rather buy it directly from Lenovo incase anything goes wrong, i can deal directly with them rather than be given a run around. Plus they come with a 30 day return policy. BTW, DHL SUCKS a$$.

You'll get the best price on the internet or ebay, but returns are more problematic.
