To order a computer notebook from Lazada

[Alfa]

Hi,   My Lap Top is getting old so I need to get a new one. So I checked Lazada   computer notebooks. They have thousands of them. When I choose Dell it go down to few hundred specially pay at the door decreased the amount very much. I saw an i7 computer for a 26000 THB, which is a good price. I didn't buy that day  and the next day it was sold out. And I start checking the other computers and noticed everyone had a sign *  1 item left *  What is that ?  Do they get second hand and repair and sell it like that OR  it's a business to make people nervous and sell easily.  HAVE YOU BOUGHT ANY COMPUTER from Lazada ?? I need your experience before I buy one. And I tell everybody if I am happy with it too.  So I need your help.  One more thing::  all the computers come with Thai language , how can I change the OPERATION SYSTEM to English ? Do you know it??  Does it cost extra too ?

Believe they sell both new and used (should be noted on page) and often people buy to resell at a high price so will only have one item when not a real store.  You also need to make up mind on model you want and then search just that - often you will find prices all over the place.  Understand upcountry you may not have an option but it were me would visit JIB or other chain store and have them set up in English after trying unit to be sure you like the feel and view.  JIB also has website option.  Personally do not like notebooks (or phones) and stick with a mouse and keyboard but guess once you get used to finger walking it is fine.

Do you really need a new computer?  Ask because using 9 year old all in one unit that still working great.  Just upgrade the HDD to an SSD if not already done and you will be amazed at how fast it runs.

Unless you just want to buy a piece of junk then roll the dice with Lazada. Unfortunately every electronic device I have ordered from Lazada for some strange reason is never in stock at the vendor advertising it

 

If it were me I would go with a specialist, such as invadeIT, who will advise you on what is the best option for your needs

 

Yes, you may pay a couple of hundred Baht more, but it's worth it not to have to deal with Lazada vendors and their mysterious vanishing stock

Lazada basically collects the money and delivers the product. They are not a vendor.

Its nothing to do with Lazada if a vendor advertises stock they dont have. 

InvadeIT has a shop on lazada.

If 7-11 doesn't have Coke in stock, do you blame Coca Cola or 7-11 ?

As others have said above look at your local retailer that they have mentioned. Also check out Advice IT on the net, our local store is very good.

I purchased one this year from the hp store on Lazada. It cost over 50000 baht so I went for payment on delivery option. No problems. As for English set up it's just a case of starting it up and choosing English as your language.

Just go to Tesco and get a new one
