I’d say an older gen Thinkpad. They’re usually the best value for your money if you’re looking for a bargain.

You can find sellers who might be willing to ship internationally on eBay. You also have to factor in taxes or levies your country may charge on electronic imports.

Seems there is a price for everything.
