I've bought lots of camera equipment, and some computer equipment, from
Exel, but I wouldn't make a major purchase from them - they're a bit
slippery, and the 'refurb' they sell you could be an actual refurb, a
demo, or a machine an employee used for several months. (At least they
do deliver, unlike some other New York City dealers...)
Another good source of B-stock thinkpads is CDW; look in their 'bargain
basement' at www.cdw.com
