    Howdy,

    I lost the power cable for my hp laptop. Rang Havery Norman's, as much as it killed me, and they quoted me 60e. Anywhere i can get one for less?

    Try your local independent PC repair place, I'd imagine they'd sort you out for between 20-30 euro

    Have you just the whole power brick, or just the cable part?

    You couldn't give me the name of the shop/person that you bought it off by any chance?

    Try Adverts. This seller has genuine used chargers. They may have one for you.

    Dont cheap out is my advice, you'll end up buying twice.

    The quality of cheap chinese charger just doesnt compare to a genuine one.

    Buy two, still works out cheaper :)

    I've never had an issue with spurious chargers, why pay €60 when you don't have to.
