Reason for Sale
I don't use it anymore
I bought this from a reseller in 2022. The laptop is in good condition, there may be some minor scratches on the body.

I'll list some elements of its configuration that prospective buyers may be interested in.
 
That's an L series with slightly lesser build quality

Thinkpad are always in good demand... All refurb company... Swap original parts with cheap replacement

Also paint the body and always feel sticky ..

They are just fooling people with ThinkPad name... Good luck ...

I see what you mean tbh. I've seen a few thinkpad keyboards that feel oddly cheap, and a common factor among them was them being bought off some refurbisher. Mind you, I haven't personally bought one off amazon yet and can't speak to them specifically.
Edit: I just noticed this, but some pictures in the reviews on amazon have a glossy display, while others have matte ones. The PSREF for that platform clarifies that the L480 was only available with matte (anti-glare) displays. This gives me reason to believe the refurbisher on amazon is using cheaper/worse quality parts.

As a side note for any interested buyers, the T480 I listed here doesn't seem to have any obvious cheap part replacements. I'm usually pretty sensitive towards keyboard quality, and it's great on this one - although you should note that the chassis (lid and bottom) is coated in a rubberized coating that dust loves to cling to.
 
How long does the battery lasts?
 
How long does the battery lasts?

Not very long, you might want to get an external battery if you care about using it off the charger. It lasts around 1.5 hours in its current config.
 
I'm thinking 16,000 + shipping is a better price. Please DM if interested.
 
Dropping price to 15,500 + shipping. I'm moving soon and I'm looking to find this a new home before I leave.
