    Rule of thumb when buying electronics (or anything for that matter) is buy it cheap, buy it twice.

      70€ isn’t cheap for a laptop from 2011, to me at least…

      But I get what you mean, 10€ per TB sounds too good to be true :D

        PS3s regularly go for €115 so I guess it’s not that surprising. It’s about demand, if a lot of people want one then it doesn’t really matter how old it is.
