Where is the best place to buy a refurbished laptop? (feddit.uk)

I'm looking to buy a laptop for things like browsing the internet, admin stuff like sorting out important documents, a little bit of software development, and other things that aren't easy to do on a phone.

I don't think I need a particularly powerful laptop for these things, so was hoping to get a cheap refurbished one. Can anyone recommend a reputable place to buy a refurbished laptop for a reasonable price? I'm hoping to spend around £200, but not sure if that's reasonable for what I'm looking for

I'd be willing to try cash converters. Haven't been in one in ages, so I totally forgot they existed! I don't think there's one physically near me, but someone else mentioned they have a website so I'll have a look there.

I haven't heard of laptops direct, but I'll check them out too!

I'm not dead set on windows or anything, so I'd be willing to install Linux (I have used it before).
