I thought the same thing for years until I needed new hearing aids. Health insurance rarely covers them and inexpensive ones for my type of hearing loss are not effective in the workplace. Thus, my hearing aids from an audiologist (doesn't matter which one, all charged about the same) cost around $7,000. I then noticed Costco sold hearing aids one day while at a store and the price was $3,700 with a better warranty, and even the same brand with minor differences in features. You can guess what happened, I dumped the independent audiologist. Now, my health insurance covers hearings aids every five years for $3,500, so I paid $200 for my last set.

Let me know when Walmart and Amazon sell hearing aids for the same and less than Costco. Note that the recent change in the FDA regulations re hearing aids does not apply to me, since my loss is profound and for this type of hearing loss you still need to see an ENT/audiologist for fittings.

Good thing that I have job that pays well. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to afford hearing aids and would probably be on welfare since 85% of deaf/hard of hearing people are unemployed or under-employed (even in this tech-heavy society). Crazy how the U.S. works. Somehow people think that it is better to moan and groan about people on welfare instead of giving hard of hearing people hearing aids every five years so that they can become employable and taxpayers. Medicare does not pay for hearings aids either, but Medicaid does.

Anyway, just be glad that you (making an assumption here) do not need to spend thousands every 3-5 years for equipment that most other people do not.

FWIW, I picked up this 14.5" Ryzen Slim 7 Pro X refurb yesterday for $818 + FS before tax:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/155268982303

Edit: List price is $929, a further 12% is taken off during checkout. I've added a screenshot of the price breakdown.

Specs are pretty amazing for the price: 32GB DDR5, 1TB Gen4 SSD (upgradeable), RTX 3050, 120Hz panel. It's on sale for $1299 at Costco.

I actually made a post this morning but it got removed, I believe because the seller is about a 1000 reviews short of the 10k minimum (updated eBay policy). Anyway, curious to hear what you guys think.

This is their extremely cut down mobile GPU, it was never intended to go against high end Nvidia GPUs, but to be mostly for creators, especially video encoding (which it surpasses Nvidia at). This has 8 Xe cores, while their desktop cards have 32. Basically Intel never released a high end gaming GPU for mobile, just stuff for creators/mixed use.

I agree that if you're looking for specifically for a gaming laptop, at $900 this isnt a good deal, it is the cheapest laptop with a 12700H and dGPU, but for $100 more you can get something like an MSI Katana with a 12700H+3060, which is far far better at gaming, but quality control is worse, doesnt have a touchscreen, etc. The people that are best suited for this laptop are content creators, hence the 32Gb of RAM, 1Tb SSD, and Arc.

Worse.

This "gpu" is weak as ish. 1650 is better at gaming.

1080p gaming:
Cyberpunk 2077 low - 46 fps
God of War low - 35fps
Far Cry 6 med - 44fps
Guardians of the Galaxy med - 14fps
Assassins Creed Valhalla med - 33fps

Looks like a 720p gaming card. šŸ¤®

Fixed it for you. If another store has the same item and price matched, please post a link to back your claim.

This is Costco Item 1659410
Lenovo Model 82VB0000US

Good deal.

For the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 7i , the ram is sodered onto the board and the laptop only has support for 1 M2 drive.

Perfectly capable setup here for that. Heck even integrated Intel Xe graphics can be utilized with Adobe softwares and have no issues.

It's when you get into the rendering end like Blender, where having a dedicated GPU helps. Even then it's just a matter of output time really and frame generation, as you move up in GPU segment.
