Likely these are off-lease business laptops. Not TC'ing, just know what you're getting into.
I also don't understand the 'outdated' concept. An 8th gen i7 will do literally any task that 99.9999999% of computer users do today and for the next 5 years. And 32GB of RAM is a ridiculous amount for even a brand-new laptop. What are people doing with their computers that the above isn't enough? My only concern with this refurbished machine would be battery life.
Instead of buying a 2 year old used car for $12k you should instead buy a $36k new car because it's better.

5300 really doesn't have any 2.5in slot! AFAIK, there is no spinny m2 HDD.
We're both very happy with this purchase. It's much, much lighter, is quiet and It looks brand new, so I think I got very lucky. I opened it up and there was no dust to be found anywhere. Battery life is OK, she doesn't really use it without plugging it in any way so that's not an issue. I got it for 265 incl tax, etc. i7 8th series, 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD. I think the original was 400 something and I used the 40% off code which also got me free shipping, or maybe that just came as a perk, not sure. Anyway, Thanks!
20-40% off selected item coupon. This might give better discounts on some items
My cutoff is if your battery is less than 50whr out of 60, then you should ask for another battery. They will send you another refurbished battery that would be better than 50. I've asked for three 7390 2in1 batteries because they were all below 50 out of 60 and got three replacement in the mid 50.
Yeah, in many cases, these are off lease business machines, and yeah, they might be several years old and not at the cutting edge of technology. But they are certainly powerful enought for most basic tasks, and if the get dropped on the floor or knocked around, it's much less of a stress vs. an $800 Apple machine.
One other thing to keep in mind is that the Latitude series is pretty much for business-class machines (whereas the Inspiron series is more consumer-oriented). So the Latitudes are generally built more robustly, and also have thing like built-in Ethernet ports that have been removed from consumer-class machines to save a few bucks. Yeah, a built-in Ethernet port might not be of interest to most people, but it is really helpful for certain operations like setting up a router... And wired Ethernet is still also way faster than most wireless systems for file transfers (to local machines).
Anyway, depending on your intended purpose (and the size of your wallet), these dellrefurbished machines can be pretty good deals.
so how do i find out if the battery is new? you talked about 0 recharge cycles, is there something that will tell me how many recharge cycles?
thanks.

eventually i may open it up to see what all is going on, i suspect new everything. the only thing old was the SSD that had 750 hours on it; that got me wondering, but an IT man told me they probably put various parts together to make the thing. better than expected is my feeling about this Dell laptop.
so i don't understand how some replies are dissatisfied while others are ecstatic over their purchase. that probably puts some off from taking a chance on these things.

Costco also has regular sales on laptops starting at 400-450 which will be much faster and have warranty
